What the ascendant shows

The Ascendant is the sign that rose on the eastern horizon when you were born. It describes how you appear, how you meet people and how you deal with the unknown. With Scorpio, this first step is often a scrutinizing look.

This is how you work with Scorpio ascendant

You appear intense, controlled and attentive. Many people with this ascendant have a haunting gaze and a calm, powerful presence. They don't talk around the matter much and notice exactly what happens between the lines.

At first contact you are rather reserved. You reveal little about yourself until you know who you're dealing with. This seems reserved to some, but attractive to others. Anyone who gains your trust will get to know you as loyal, honest and very committed.

You have a keen sense of power, motives and the unspoken. Superficiality bores you, but real encounters give you strength.

How you start new things

You start new things with full concentration. You carefully examine whether something is worth it, and once you have decided, you pursue your goal with great willpower. You don't do things by halves.

Crises scare you less than others. Often, especially in difficult times, you grow beyond yourself and find a way where others give up. It's important that you don't take on everything yourself.

Scorpio ascendant in career

In your job you get to the bottom of things. You work with concentration, persistence and don't let up until you really understand something. You often particularly enjoy tasks that require depth, discretion or resilience.

Many people with this ascendant find themselves in research, psychology, medicine, finance or in roles in which they uncover what is hidden or accompany change. You are strong where others give up. Make sure to share responsibility and not shoulder every burden alone.

Scorpio ascendant in love

With a Scorpio ascendant, your descendant is in Taurus. You are attracted to people who radiate calm, stability and sensuality, people with whom you feel safe and who respond to your intensity with calmness.

In relationships you seek loyalty and complete honesty. You love passionately and expect the same commitment in return. Taurus on the descendant gives you grounding and teaches you to simply enjoy closeness without having to figure everything out.

A partnership becomes a safe haven for you when trust grows on both sides. This shows you how two horoscopes work together Kombin or in detail the Relationship analysis.

Where things can get difficult

Your caution can isolate you. If you spend too long checking whether you can trust someone, people who mean well for you will stay at a distance. And because you're good at hiding your feelings, often no one knows how you're really feeling.

Control is also an issue. In uncertain moments, you want to keep the situation under control, which can make it difficult to be close.

This is how you live well with your Scorpio ascendant

• Trust in steps. Give people the chance to prove themselves instead of demanding proof from the start.
• Initiate a person. You don't have to open up to everyone, but to at least one.
• Express intensity. Sport, music or a passion give your strength a path.
• give up control. Practice letting others take the wheel in small things.
• Design financial statements. Conscious rituals help you let go of the old and start anew.

Your ruling planet: Mars and Pluto

Scorpio is traditionally ruled by Mars, and in modern astrology also by Pluto. Both together are considered the rulers of your horoscope. Where Mars is in your radix shows how you use your power. Pluto describes where you experience deep changes. You see both in your birth chart.

Scorpio ascendant and your zodiac sign

Your ascendant colors how your zodiac sign is visible to the outside world. An initial orientation according to the four elements:

• Sun in Fire (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius): A fiery core with an intense demeanor. Your passion appears concentrated through the ascendant.
• Sun in Earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn): Very persistent and determined. If your Sun is in Taurus, you were born around sunset.
• Sun in the Air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius): A bright spirit with a profound demeanor. You bring lightness and depth together.
• Sun in Water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces): A lot of feeling and intuition. Be careful not to close yourself off too much.

If your sun is also in Scorpio, you were born around sunrise, and Scorpio has a double influence on you. More on this at Scorpio zodiac sign and at Moon in Scorpio.
