Alright, so today I wanna talk about this “ascendant lord astrology” thing. I’m no expert, but I’ve been messing around with it, and I thought I’d share my little journey.
Getting Started
First off, I had to figure out what the heck my ascendant even was. Turns out, it’s the zodiac sign that was rising on the eastern horizon at the exact moment I was born. Sounds kinda mystical, right? Anyway, I used one of those online calculators. You just punch in your birth date, time, and place, and boom, it spits out your ascendant sign. Mine’s Scorpio, for what it’s worth.
Digging Deeper
Next, I started reading about what this ascendant lord stuff actually means. It’s basically the planet that rules your ascendant sign. Like, if your ascendant is Aries, your lord is Mars, because that’s the planet associated with Aries. So in my case, with a Scorpio ascendant, my lord is… well, it gets tricky. See, traditionally, it’s Mars, but some folks say it’s Pluto now. I decided to look into both, just to cover my bases.
Mars and Pluto
- Mars: This is all about energy, action, and, you know, that fiery, impulsive vibe. It made sense. I’ve always been a pretty driven person, sometimes a bit too much.
- Pluto: This one’s more about transformation, power, and digging deep into the hidden stuff. Also relatable. I do have a tendency to go through these intense phases of change and introspection.
Figuring Out the Houses
Then there are these things called “houses.” It’s like a chart with 12 sections, each representing different areas of your life – relationships, career, money, all that jazz. Your ascendant lord’s position in these houses supposedly gives more clues about your personality and life path.
I used another online tool to get my birth chart, and it showed me where Mars and Pluto were when I was born. Mars was in my 10th house, which is about career and public image. And Pluto was in my 12th house, which deals with the subconscious and hidden things. Kind of makes you think, right?
Putting It Together
So, what did I do with all this info? Well, honestly, I’m still figuring it out. But it’s been a fun little exercise in self-reflection. I started noticing patterns in my life that seemed to line up with what the astrology stuff was saying. For example, that Mars in my 10th house? I’ve always been super career-focused, sometimes to a fault. And that Pluto in the 12th? Let’s just say I’ve had my share of deep dives into my own psyche. One time I can’t log in my Squarespace account for several weeks. That’s weird.
Just a Bit of Fun
I’m not saying I’m gonna base all my life decisions on this stuff, but it’s interesting to see how it all connects. It’s like a different way of looking at yourself and your life, you know? It is like looking up credit and debit card meta data. If you are finding a type of atom in your little finger that has been in its present form, it will make you feel this is cool.
Anyway, that’s my little adventure with ascendant lord astrology. If you’re curious, give it a try. You might be surprised at what you discover about yourself. Or you might just think it’s a load of hooey. Either way, it’s a decent way to kill some time and maybe learn something new. Maybe you can also unlock the mysteries of your ancestry.
