In astrology, how does a rising sign affect one's personality?

The rising sign on the eastern horizon is called as ascendant or lagna. The ascendant or lagna is the one which decides the fate.

As per stellar astrological principles, ascendant decides below things.

1. Your ascendant falls on a particular degree which is ruled by a star lord and sub lord. Your sub lord is unique and it relates to specific planets & houses through cuspal inter links. This decides your personality, nature and your life mission.
2. Based on your ascendant, different houses falls on different star and sub lords and they make cuspal inter links too. If your ascendant change by even few degrees or minutes, other houses change too. Benefits of other houses are also decided by your ascendant

Without ascendant, there is no meaning to an astrological chart. Ascendant rules your soul and it has coded information about your past, present and future life.
