Astrologers read it as your manner and the first impression you make — the way people meet you before they know you.",{"question":13,"answer":14},"Why does it need an exact time?","The Earth turns once a day, so all twelve signs rise in turn — one roughly every two hours, faster for some signs and slower for others depending on latitude. When the ascendant sits near the edge of a sign, a quarter of an hour can change the answer; we say so when it does.",{"question":16,"answer":17},"I don't know my birth time. What can I do?","Without the time the rising sign can't be calculated — any answer would be a guess. Hospital records or your parents often have it, and in some countries it is on the birth certificate. Meanwhile the Moon sign needs only the date: start with the Moon sign calculator.",{"question":19,"answer":20},"Why do you ask for the place?","The ascendant depends on where you were on Earth: at the same minute, a different sign rises in Istanbul and in New York. The place also gives the time zone, including daylight saving in the year you were born, so your clock time becomes the right moment.",1794480525020]
