Rising sign

Explore the sign on the horizon at your birth, as another starting point for self-reflection.

Location and time

Use coordinates and the historical IANA time zone of the actual birthplace, for example Asia/Shanghai. These values are supplied by you and are not verified by a geocoding service. This site does not send your birth information to a third-party location service. Incorrect coordinates, historical time-zone rules or recorded times may change the result.

About your inputs and results

Inputs are sent only to this site for a temporary calculation. They are not saved or placed in the URL. Reloading clears the form.

Tropical zodiac, geocentric geometric Moon, true ecliptic of date. Astronomy Engine 2.1.19 with JPL Horizons Delta T. Rising uses apparent sidereal time and true obliquity; supported latitudes are 65° south to 65° north. No house system is calculated. Dates: 1900–2099. Sign boundaries include a 0.02° Moon guard and a 0.1° rising guard. Clock resolution and the stated uncertainty are included; these do not verify the accuracy of a birth record.

How to use this tool

Explore a Moon or rising sign from your birth date, local time and birthplace coordinates. Enter the birthplace’s historical IANA time zone, not your current location. If the time is unknown, choose that option instead of guessing noon.

Astrology is a cultural framework for reflection, not a scientific personality assessment or a prediction. The result does not decide your character or future. No birth profile is saved; clear or reload the page to discard your inputs.

How to use this tool

Calculate a rising sign from birth time, historical time zone and coordinates, and review how uncertainty can affect the result.

Check the birth time and birthplace coordinates carefully. Small changes in time may affect the rising sign, so read the uncertainty range.
