[@markkirkland2116]

Excellent. I just fell in love with your fabulous, look at the most important part of our chart's. Acendant,planetary Ruler. Excellent 👌❤

[@themaangol8496]

Great starting point. Can't wait to find out all about Mercury. Thanks for sharing!

[@KellysAstrology]

My pleasure, thanks for watching!

[@IrynLost]

Love these new videos on the basics of traditional astro you're putting out, dear Kelly!🙏💖 The darker library background is also ace🌷

[@KellysAstrology]

Thanks so much! I recorded a series while I was at Tony's house last year - that's his background - glad you like it!

[@IrynLost]

@@KellysAstrologyoh that's why that seemed familiar 🤗 Tony is so awesome, I enjoy it hugely when you interact 💖

[@morriganwitch]

So true I ve naturally moved towards my rising Sign thank you for confirmation xxx

[@KellysAstrology]

My pleasure

"stop focusing on the sun and focus on the ruling planet of your rising sign" *My Leo rising sign* : surprise bish

[@sumshine928]

OMG LOL SAME

[@lr1802]

Same haha 😆

[@SimpleMandy]

Thank you for this. Over the years I have gravitated more towards my rising sign. Because I feel like regardless of where my Sun, Moon, or whatever is it will always come through with a Scorpio flare. My Mars, interestingly enough, is in Cancer trine my Scorpio rising. Which plays a much bigger role in my personality, and life, than I ever imagined.

[@zenlifetv4837]

I am a virgo rising. My mercury is Sagittarius in the 4th house. I have 2 other planets in the 4th house as well.

[@juniperthewolf5624]

So...question. I have been listening to your lectures & your work on the astrology podcast...pretty much daily, for over a year now. (Before I go on, let me just say how grateful I am for all the work you all do. It's clear & concise, while also being truly in-depth. If I had the means, I would be taking all your classes right now. Unfortunately that's not financially possible for me for a time, so until then I am working hard to educate myself on the basics as best I can). In any case, to the point: I've heard all of you speak about the chart ruler (as in this video), but I have also heard you speak of sect. In your opinion, which planet holds more sway in the chart? For example, without giving away my entire birth chart, my rising sign is Scorpio (hence Mars would be my chart ruler, yes?)...however, I was born at night (which would suggest Saturn might hold sway as a malefic to be wary of), but on top of that, they are both conjoined in my first house, along with Pluto. So....who has the upper hand? Or would they have somewhat equal, though varied, importance when looking at one's chart? I understand that a chart ruler & ruler of sect are not the same thing, but I'm unclear as to the level of importance one would place on each. I'm using my own as an example, and perhaps I need a consultation for clear answers in this case, but am also wondering in general for other people's charts...how does one weigh the 'gravity' of a planet's importance natally? Thank you. :)

[@villainoir]

Cancer rising with Moon on the first house ❤️ No wonder I choose "Moon" for my pseudonym's last name. It's a night chart on top of that!

Super maam pin point techniques about Ascndent

[@monicaant.1422]

Thank you I'm a Pisces ascendent and traditional ruler jupiter in Gemini is in the 3rd house of communication.

[@KellysAstrology]

My pleasure~ Do you see the Gemini /3rd house themes as being important in your life or personality?

[@monicaant.1422]

@@KellysAstrology yes because I also have Taurus/Saturn in the 3rd house which made me have speech problems when I was younger and seeing Gemini now makes me improve my ability.

[@natio333.]

This was helpful info, Thankyou 🙏🏼💙

[@KellysAstrology]

My pleasure!

[@DNA1123]

Wow simply amazing!

[@corlisscrabtree3647]

Thank you

[@gabriellemorellisinger1608]

Thank you that always confused me can you go through how the houses effect you Rising?

[@KellysAstrology]

That's a great idea for a future video! Thanks so much

[@starsalignment9024]

I'm a very late Sagg rising, ascendant ruler, Jupiter is in Cancer 7th house (Placidus) but only has a trine aspect to the SN, does this make my ascendant ruler an unaspected planet, or does the SN/NN count also? My firdaria level 2 has just recently changed to Jupiter, but because of my natal Jupiter, I'm not sure if this is good or bad.

[@KellysAstrology]

Jupiter in Cancer is wonderful! The house placement and aspects can influence that. For the nodes, I usually focus on a conjunction or the copresence (being in the same sign) rather than other aspects

[@stellamoore1156]

Thanks for the reminder, Kelly. I'm a Scorpio Rising/stellium. I have mars in the 8th(gemini). However, my natal Mars is retrograde. Is there anything I should take into account given my chart ruler is retrograde?

[@KellysAstrology]

Sure - the usual insights re delays, moving more slowly, taking longer/more time than others/your peers to hit life milestones - be patient with yourself.

[@flyhigh5066]

Namaste I am pisces 14 rising Jupiter ( and Mars Venus) is in 9th house Scorpio 26 degrees, by wholesign. By placidus mars Venus shifts to 8th house. I recently shifted to travel industry from banking. However due to this Corona thing, as you might be aware, travel trade has taken the greatest hit. No jobs , recession etc. So I was wondering on 9th house themes fructification in my chart.

[@eee_789_]

I am a sag rising with Pluto conjunction to my ascendant and my Jupiter is in Capricorn and that’s a debilitated placement is it bad?

[@Yogis406]

Mine is mercury in the 8th, Gemini rising. Would you say mercury transits for me could be more significant then? Even though it’s a fast moving planet?

[@KellysAstrology]

Yes, absolutely! And that would include Mercury retrogrades too

[@sean..L]

Cancer Ascendant trines the moon in Scorpio in my chart.

[@TechVerse90]

Ok now this makes sense to me.

[@Candlesinthewoods]

Just curious when and who and why Neptune is not the ruling of Pisces. Thank you💕

[@KellysAstrology]

Neptune was only discovered in 1846. So a good question is which planet ruled Pisces before then? And that is Jupiter.

[@Candlesinthewoods]

@@KellysAstrology thank you💕

[@imlaced]

If I am ♏️ rising, with Pluto conjunct Mercury, would my focus on Pluto be more beneficial than Mars in the 12th/Libra? I’ve been trying to understand my Mars in ♎️, which is conjunct by sign to Sun and Venus in Libra, but I feel it’s difficult to harness my Martian qualities. Pluto, however, seems so rough and uncomfortable, but authentic for me. 🧐

[@anguineus_vir]

The difficulty in harnessing your martian qualities may be due to Mars sitting in the 12th which is a house that makes any planet to not manifest in a patent way and the fact that Mars is in detriment in Libra. I’m also Scorpio rising with Mars in Libra in the 12th and I also feel like my martian qualities difficult to arise, the martian drive is definitely there but the will cannot be imposed in martian terms which could be frustrating

[@kharving1800]

thank you

[@KellysAstrology]

You're welcome 😊

[@pauliesmrt7562]

What about Libra?

[@brielle8034]

my sun is on the ascendent and they're both in scorpio aaaaaahhh!

[@KellysAstrology]

You're ascendant sign ruler would be Mars if you have a Scorpio rising so look to Mars in your chart! This webinar goes into more detail too: www.kellysastrology.com/product/the-ascendant-the-mask-you-wear/

[@angelawhite2307]

How do you know what your ascendant sign is?

[@KellysAstrology]

You need your time, date and place of birth, then some astrology software, or an astrologer to calculate it. You can try these free online options: chart.chaninicholas.com/ www.astro.com/free/free_chart_e.htm

[@flambr]

I have no idea what “rulership” means at all, have been trying for more than a year to research astrology but I think im just too stupid :(

[@KellysAstrology]

You're definitely not stupid! You might find this beginner astrology course helpful www.kellysastrology.com/product/practical-astrology-beginners/

[@brookem0621]

i have gem asc 27 opp mercury sag 27 :)(

[@fndngnvrlnd]

Your videos are too short! Be a lot more like Brennan and Acyuta Bhava!!!

[@ZepMab]

Mars in Libra = GAY 😂

[@maiashraf1239]

Mars in cancer😂

[@DouglasHinz]

What's a star sign? What's an ascendant? What's a ruling planet? What's an ascendant sign? Why do you folks on KZbin throw these terms out there without any explanation? Before you use these unknown terms you should define them so people who are interested in learning about astrology can do so. Otherwise it's like you are speaking in a foreign language and no one can understand you. What are aspects of mercury? What is Scorpio ascendant? What does pisces rising mean? Grrr!!!!

[@missDadadada]

Leo rising, aries sun. But, I have jupiter on my ascendant, conjunction.

[@KellysAstrology]

That's definitely a factor. I teach in detail about the ruling planet of the ascendant in this 4 part online astrology training too: www.kellysastrology.com/product/guiding-lights/
