The Rising sign in astrology reveals the way your childhood experiences and programming have affected you and your mentality · This book includes an easy to use Rising sign table that allows you to find your Rising sign at a glance · The Sun sign and Rising sign affect your outer manner, the way you approach the world, your mind and the way you think and act · The Midheaven in astrology is linked to the Rising sign, and this book shows how they work in tandem The Rising sign throws light on the way we present ourselves to others, and this is partly due to nature but also to the programming that we receive in childhood and youth. Our career choices, partnership requirements, mental and spiritual interests and general behaviour are greatly influenced by our Rising sign. It modifies our appearance and it can take us into situations and places in our lives that the Sun sign alone would not. The Midheaven shows our aims and ambitions – even when we aren't really aware of what's driving us and why we choose the directions in life that we do. Sasha has replaced about a third of her original book, introducing new material within existing chapters and adding several new chapters, especially focusing on the Midheaven and the way it works with the Rising sign. This is due to the fact that she has never stopped learning about astrology and people as the years go by.
