"One of the things that we're going to discuss is the rising, which is also called the ascendant and the moon sign. These you can find in any astrology books in the charts in the back. What's important to know is, if you're a Virgo, you're moon sign could be in Pisces and your ascendant could be in Gemini. And these characteristics sometimes become a little bit stronger than the actual sun sign that you were born under, it just depends on the person. Like if you're a Virgo, you tend to be very organized and very critical and a perfectionist and you don't like when people are late, you're more affectionate than romantic and you like to know when things are going to happen. Virgos tend to be very health conscious and they pay attention to not only their health, but everybody else's. If that brings in a moon sign of Pisces, then the Virgo would tend to be a little bit more indecisive and not as organized as most Virgos can be. The Virgo will have a higher sensitivity and more compassion so a good Virgo with a Pisces moon usually ends up in health care because the high compassion from the Pisces brings in the health concerns of the Virgo. And then if it brings in the Gemini, the Gemini, this is two, well actually it's three mutable signs so it's very adaptable. But the Gemini brings in the higher intelligence, so with the Gemini quality and bringing in that high intelligence, Gemini?s really like to move fast and explore different things, I would think that a Virgo with a Pisces moon and a Gemini rising would not only be in health care or, which would be a suitable profession, but that they would be a supervisor, or a leader, with this Gemini quality. So, it's important, but not absolutely necessary to know your moon and your rising. If you want to do a thorough chart for yourself and a romantic partner, it is best to know the moon sign and the ascendant, and, like I said, you can find that in any book because these do influence the sun sign a lot."
