[Shovkovskyi/Peter]

I see that some people aren't too much into astrology, so let me give you a quick explanation of these signs.

Sun sign - known as your horoscope sign. Most people know, which horoscope sign they are, because all you need to know for it is your birth date. For example, as I'm born between August 23 – September 22 means my horoscope aka Sun sign aka Zodiac sign is Virgo. That's the easy one. You don't need calculators for that...

If you want to know, what are your Ascendant (aka Rising Sun) and your Moon sign, you need to find an online Sun/Moon/Ascendant sign calculator (for example, THIS one, which I use myself, because it's very in-depth). For that you will need to know not only your birth date, but also birth time and place (for example, 9:27 AM, New York City. To get the best result, make sure the time is as precise as possible, because your moon sign and ascendant could change few minutes here or there). Most likely your Moon sign and Ascendent will be different zodiacs than your Sun sign, although in some cases it can be the same. For example, my Ascendant is the same as my Sun sign - Virgo.

Sun sign is how you see yourself (aka your characteristics). Moon sign is how we really are (aka our priorities). Ascendant is how others see us. This is why it's important to know all three, because sometimes you might question yourself, when you have no idea, why someone didn't like something you did or said.

I suggest you read the results you get from those calculations because you might find them interesting.

P.S. Sorry for off-topic - just wanted to make sure people know, what they write, when they write down their signs
