i am not joking we need to force teach cooking in schools. like. it is an essential thing for survival. do you know how easy it is to make things if you know even the bare bones shit about how cooking works. we need to teach teenagers how far you can take an onion and some other veggies it''s sad that people grow up not knowing how to prepare literally anything. and i'm not talking about oh this home ed class taught me how to make chicken nuggets at home i'm talking about learning the balancing of sweetness and acidity and saltiness and bitterness and shit like that and techniques and oil temperatures and how meats cook. it needs to be taught because it's literally not even that difficult and it matters so much

ascendant overlays in synastry

Wherever someone’s ascendant falls in our houses, that’s where we see the person at first sight and how we think they’ll fit into our lives. To me, rising signs can be such a smoke curtain. It takes a while to see the person behind the ascendant. Some say the ascendant is the cover of the book. And that can be quite delusive. As such, I don’t put too much stock in ascendant-house overlays. I look primarily at actual planets, such as the inner [personal] planets (sun, MOON, VENUS, Mars); I also look at prominent asteroids (Lilith, Chiron, etc.). But someone asked for this, so since I didn’t see too much on it myself, I figured…what the hell.

1st house - Ascendant: The ascendant often has to do with first impressions that we get from others.  This shows that the two of you tend to see the world in the same way and have similar visceral responses to likes and dislikes. While this may seem like a favorable indication for a relationship, too much similarity tends to create stagnation and lack of interest. Since the purpose of any relationship is spiritual growth, this combination would probably only survive if there is greater contrariety in as far as other indicators are concerned.

2nd house - Ascendant:  This overlay indicates a very basic kind of physical attraction. The ascendant person particularly could enhance physical attraction and feelings of sensuality in the 2nd house person. The ascendant can influence the house person in a positive way and can also bolster his/her feelings of self-worth. In return, the house person gives the ascendant person comfort, security, and a feeling of usefulness within that relationship.

3rd house - Ascendant:  The basic spiritual awareness and intuitive perceptions of the ascendant person will influence the thinking and mental attitudes of the 3rd house person. The ideas, mental attitudes, and communication of the house person are likely, in turn, to influence the self-image and basic attitude and actions of the ascendant person.

4th house - Ascendant:  The ascendant person’s actions and self-expression will have a strong emotional impact on the 4th house person. This influence will be particularly felt in the house person’s family and domestic affairs. The house person can provide a home and base of operations for the ascendant’s expressions. There will be strong emotional ties in your family relationships, whether they’re good (meaning that the ascendant person has a Cancer rising, Leo rising, or earth rising sign, and the house person has their 4th in Cancer, Taurus, Leo, Virgo, or Libra) or bad (the ascendant person having a fire/air sign, Pisces rising or Scorpio rising and the house person having their 4th in Aries, Sagittarius, Scorpio, Gemini, Aquarius)

5th house - Ascendant:  This overlay can indicate a strong spiritual link between the two.of them. On the negative side, though, there can be danger of competition. These two can effectively reinforce self-image, self-awareness, willpower and self-expression. If the two parties take advantage of the positive influence of this overlay, its effect can be very powerful.

6th house - Ascendant:  This overlay indicates a very complex kind of physical attraction. The ascendant person particularly could enhance physical fitness and health in the 6th house person. Also, the ascendant can influence the house person in a positive way and can also bolster his/her feelings of self-worth. In return, the house person gives the ascendant person structure, order, and a feeling of helpfulness within that relationship; the house person makes the ascendant person want to be better and more perfect, physically. They either can work well together (if the ascendant person has their rising in Leo, Aquarius, or an earth or water sign and the house person’s 6th is in Leo, Aquarius or an earth or water sign) or the partners fail to cooperate with each other in meeting various responsibilities (the ascendant is either in an air or fire sign and the house person’s 6th is in a water or earth sign; or conversely, the ascendant is either in an earth or water sign and the house person’s 6th is in an air or fire sign).

7th house - Ascendant:  In love relationships, this combination can create a strong romantic sensual attraction. They tend to both sit up and take notice of each other. The ascendant individual tends to initiate the first contact and may be the first to notice the 7th house individual. The house individual is capable of making the ascendant individual feel good about him/herself and loved. Friendship results in other circumstances (which is more often than not). One mirrors the other’s approach to life, at least on the surface. However, even though they will probably feel an instant affinity for and attraction toward one another, this overlay does not guarantee they will be compatible on deeper issues. As such, having the ascendant in a tight conjunction to another’s actual descendant is more  powerful and definitely inspires attention.

8th house - Ascendant: They will encourage each other to make greater efforts towards physical and spiritual self-improvement. The 8th house person can have a strong spiritual or occult influence on the ascendant person’s basic consciousnesses and self-awareness. In a romantic relationship, strong sexual attraction is likely.

9th house - Ascendant: The 9th house person encourages the ascendant person’s efforts at personal and spiritual self-improvement and helps him/her develop a more positive self-image and mores socially constructive means of personal self-expression. The ascendant person will give energy and active support to the house person’s efforts to aid or improve the larger social order. They will be natural friends and enjoy each other’s company.

10th house - Ascendant:  The 10th house person will influence the ascendant person to be more mature, serious, purposeful an businesslike in personal self-expression ad basic approach to life and more cautious and less impulsive in personal actions. The ascendant person can help the house person to overcome fear. However, if the ascendant person’s rising sign is in Virgo, Pisces, or in a fire or air sign and the house person’s 10th is in Capricorn, Taurus, Cancer, or Scorpio, then the ascendant person will regard the house person as a threat to his/her freedom of self-expression in action; the house person may regard the ascendant person as immature, self-centered and impulsive

11th house - Ascendant: The 11th house person feels special and adored by the ascendant person. The ascendant person make the house person feel that what he/she is accepted and valued for his/her uniqueness, and welcomed into the fold of that person’s life. These two will encourage each other to develop their inner spiritual awareness and unique creative abilities. For the relationship to be harmonious, the both of them must respect the other’s independence and free will.

12th house - Ascendant: The 12th house person will have a strong psychic influence on the ascendant person which can either be spiritually uplifting or psychologically disorienting, depending on the basic character of the house person and the overall nature of the comparison. The house person can help the ascendant person to become more self-aware as a spiritual being. The ascendant person can help the house person to be dynamically active in expressing and utilizing intuitive insights and imaginative abilities and to overcome subconscious, psychological  problems through constructive action.
