In this lecture, Glennys Lawton explores the deeper meaning of the ascendant and its ongoing commitment to our wellbeing. In much of our astrological literature, information about the ascendant leaves us with a sense of mystery. There is often no clear reference available to make the fundamental meaning of the ascendant more coherent. Our traditional understanding of the ascendant, while pointed in the right direction, has been very limited and usually takes the form of interpretation along the lines of a mask, persona, a defence mechanism etc. These are all very relevant but perhaps lacking the sense of honour and respect that the ascendant deserves.
