While everyone knows their astrological sign, some people are unaware of or underestimate the importance of their rising sign. And yet, it is often said that the rising sign becomes dominant after the age of forty. True or false? It's up to you to judge!
How to calculate your rising sign?
As a reminder, your ascendant is the degree of the zodiac that rises on the horizon at the moment of your birth.

What is the influence of the rising sign?
Just like your astrological sign, the ascendant exerts its influence in all areas of your life.
But above all, knowing your ascendant allows you to better understand your own personality and determine the image that others have of you.
It is said that the ascendant corresponds to the image that a person projects to others, the mask they show to communicate with others and find their place in society.
This sign also determines certain traits of your personality and helps to nuance the character of your astrological sign.
Finally, astrologers explain that the influence of the ascendant intensifies throughout life, especially from the age of 40, and that this sign gives you an insight into your future evolution.
At what age does he take the lead?
It is from the age of 40 that the ascendant tends to take precedence over your astrological sign. Of course, this trend is not an exact science and the dominance of the ascendant can occur more or less late depending on individuals.
Your life path and experiences are unique. But, as a general rule, the more mature you become, the more you internalize the image you project of yourself in society.
Once you pass the age of forty, this sign therefore influences your life in an even more decisive way than before.
According to some astrologers who believe in reincarnation and karma, the ascendant may even be capable of eclipsing your astrological sign in the second half of your life, as it would correspond to your next astrological sign, the one under which you will be reborn.
In this life, it mainly acts as a revealer of your personality under construction through your interactions with others. It also indicates a course of action to follow in order to correct the flaws of your astrological sign.
