What is the difference between Descendant and Ascendant in Astrology?

The descendant is the opposite sign to the ascendant. . While the ascendant gives us information about our behavior in public and the image we project to others, the descendant tells us more about the relationships we build with others. In particular, it will provide us with valuable information on love compatibility but will also allow us to see, in a more general way, with which signs we seem in agreement and with which signs our hairs can suddenly stand on end...

The influence of the descendant on the astrological sign

In the same way that the ascendant sheds light on our personality by showing us how we present ourselves to others, knowing our descendant will allow us to better understand the connections we have with others . For example, a Sagittarius Taurus ascendant and Scorpio descendant will be able to reflect the image of a stable, persevering and trusting being. The fire of Sagittarius that burns in him will make him a sympathetic and dynamic being. But the descending Scorpion gives us an essential clue about the relationship he has with his other half. Both exclusive and absolutely mistrustful, the Scorpio descendant brings another color to a fire sign ascending Earth. The Water element bursts into the scene and we discover a new facet of the personality of Sagittarius Taurus ascendant . Worried, possessive, attracted by strangeness, the Scorpio descendant singularly nuances the solar personality of Sagittarius.

In astrology, it is not uncommon to consider the descendant as the shadow part that is in us . The inherent personality aspects of our descending sign would be partly those we reject . For example, a Lion ascendant Capricorn and descendant Cancer could live in denial of certain defects specific to Cancer… he could thus not recognize himself at all in personality traits such as anxiety, dependence, melancholy and deny them purely and simply.
