Ascendants of the Rooster
The ascendants below are related to the Chinese Lunar Sign of the Rooster. Each period of time during the day corresponds to a different Chinese horoscope. So, although it is the Rooster’s individual choice on which path he will take in life, there may perhaps be other “inner voices” which will influence him. These “inner voices”, “other self” or “inner struggle” comes from their conflicting ascendants.
11PM – 1AM: The Rat Hours
With the Rat element in him, the Rooster is more accommodating and pleasant. You are inquisitive, charming and helpful to those in need. On the other hand, you can be highly critical and argumentative if others disagree with you. You place too much attention to details to the extent that you forget your original intention.
1AM – 3AM: The Ox Hours
Although down-to-earth due to the Ox influence, you can be very bossy and critical to people who don’t comply with your ways. You are tenacious, purposeful, reliable, careful with money and patient but not very receptive to change or feedback from others. You have a tendency to want to take on everything yourself and keep your feelings to yourself.
3AM – 5AM: The Tiger Hours
Having the conflicting influence of the Rooster’s analytical tendency and the Tiger’s passionate ways, you can be very fickle about what you truly want. You are outspoken and fearless but at the same time you have the tendency of being too assertive, insensitive and over imposing on others.
5AM – 7AM: The Rabbit Hours
The Rabbit influence tones down the Rooster’s aggressive nature. You are less critical and more harmonious with others. It would help you if you listen to your Rabbit’s peaceful inner voice and refrain from being too impulsive.
7AM – 9AM: The Dragon Hours
The Dragon element can make the Rooster very aggressive and courageous. You will make a great leader and many people would love to follow you. You may expect too much from people and push people away. It would help you very much if you learn to accept people as they are.
9AM-11AM: The Snake Hours
The Snake Rooster is wise, tenacious, decisive and cunning but reserved. You resent people trying to invade your privacy. You are also philosophical, contemplative and spiritual.
11AM-1PM: The Horse Hours
The Horse Rooster is sharp and quick. Both signs are flamboyant but the Horse element makes you more practical. Although you are independent and engaging, you can be erratic and impatient too.
1PM-3PM: The Sheep Hours
The Sheep element tones down the strong personality of the Rooster. You are less outspoken, kinder, more helpful, friendlier and consequently more popular. However, you can still be very critical when provoked.
3PM-5PM: The Monkey Hours
The Monkey Rooster is easier going and compromising than most Roosters. You are clever, resourceful, and extremely optimistic in your outlook. To you, if there is a will there is always a way.
5PM-7PM: The Rooster Hours
With the Rooster as the ascendant, all characteristics of the Rooster are exaggerated. You are highly critical of others, have extreme attention to details, very hardworking, tenacious and eccentric. You have the best of intentions but can be very difficult to deal with when your mood is down.
7PM-9PM: The Dog Hours
The Dog element injects some friendliness into the egoistic Rooster but can make you calculative and unpredictable. You are fixated in your view and are unlikely to budge once you set your mind on something. However, you are very conscientious and have a great deal of compassion for others.
9PM-11PM: The Pig Hours
The Pig Rooster is quite selfless but can be overzealous in wanting to help others. Your Pig nature makes you flamboyant, outgoing and indulgent but the Rooster in you keeps you in line where discipline is concerned.
