Discover How To Find Your “Top 3” Astrological Signs
Your “Top 3” in Astrology is a phrase you have probably heard before. It refers to the three primary placements in your natal(birth) chart that significantly influence your personality and life path. These placements are the Sun Sign, Moon Sign, and Rising Sign (also known as The Ascendant).
Discovering how to find your Sun Moon and Rising Sign are big steps in your astrological journey as they represent aspects of your individual path on this planet and can help lead you back to your center when you are feeling off track. They can affect everything from how you make money, to your relationships, to how you show up on social media or even to a party.
To find your “Top 3” and explore what they mean for you– Follow The Steps Below!

Learn Your Sun Sign
What Is A Sun Sign?
The Sun Sign represents the core of your individual identity and sense of conscious self. It reflects your basic personality traits, life path, and the essence of who you are.
- Traits: The Sun sign is often associated with general characteristics, motivations, and overall approach to life.
- Example: A Leo Sun may exhibit confidence and creativity, while a Virgo Sun may display analytical skills and attention to detail.
- Purpose: It guides how a person tends to express themselves and interact with the world around them.
You can also use your Sun Sign to determine basic levels of zodiac compatibility(just in time for Cuffing Season too!)
Find Your Sun Sign
To find your Sun Sign you will look for the symbol of a circle with a dot in the center, as shown below. If you are using Astro-Seek either to the side or below the chart, it will describe your Sun Sign and give you information about the sign and house that it is in.
Discover Your Moon Sign
What Is A Moon Sign?
Your Moon Sign represents your emotional core, instincts, and inner self. It reflects how you process feelings, your nurturing instincts, and your subconscious motivations. The Moon sign reveals what you need to feel secure and at home in your emotional world.
- Emotional Responses: The Moon sign influences how you respond to emotional situations. It is like your default emotional setting, the aspects that come out during emotional highs and lows.
- Example: A Cancer Moon may desire a more nurturing and emotional relationship, while a Capricorn Moon may approach emotions and relationships with caution and practicality.
- Subconscious Drives: Your Moon Sign can also shed light on your habits, desires, and what makes you feel fulfilled on a deeper level. It reveals your instinctive reactions and emotional patterns that may not be immediately visible. It can also point to the type of relationships and interactions you experienced with your own mother, represented by the Moon.
P.S. Pay Attention To The Lunar Phase You Were Born In Too As It Holds Additional Information, You Can Discover That Here.
Find Your Moon Sign
To discover Your Moon Sign you will be looking for a small crescent moon shape, as seen indicated by the arrow in my chart below.
(Be careful however because there is also a small crescent moon with a cross underneath that indicates something called The Black Moon Lilith. This aspect can also provide valuable information, however, it is not what we are looking for here, so be sure to look for the crescent moon without the cross beneath it.)
If you scroll to the end of the description it will also provide important aspects of your Moon Sign- Trines, Conjunctions, Squares, etc. You can then Google those aspects for more basic clarity around what they mean.
Explore Your Rising Sign
What Is A Rising Sign?
Your Rising Sign is the zodiac sign that was rising on the eastern horizon(the sun rises in the East) at the exact time of your birth. It plays a significant role in shaping your outward personality, appearance, and the way you present yourself to the world.
Outer Persona: The Rising Sign can also impact your approach to life, influencing how you react to new situations and interact with others. It acts as a filter through which your inner self (Moon sign) is expressed to the world.
First Impressions: The Rising sign influences how others perceive you, often affecting first impressions and initial interactions.
Example: A Leo Rising might come across as warm and charismatic, while a Scorpio Rising might be seen as intense and mysterious.
Find Your Rising Sign
To find your Rising Sign you will be looking for the dark line on the right side of your chart, next to the letters ASC, which stands for Ascendant. Below the chart, it will be listed as Ascendant or ASC.
