Two questions about astrology!!?

Question

1. What does it mean if I have Pisces in my ascendent node, but gemini rising? I thought the ascendent IS your rising sign?

2. I don't understand the placement of signs in houses and what that means. For instance, my sun sign Aries is in my 11th house, so what? Some help would be appreciated, thank you!

Answer 1

do you mean that pisces is your "true node"? cause there's no such thing as an ascendant node.. ascendants ARE your rising sign.

planets = energy given out

houses= where the energy is shown

sun in aries in 11th house means that your friends and large social circles (11th hs) are very important to you. this area is where you enjoy to channel your energy and are most enthusiastic about (sun). you are a very social person and  you enjoy taking part in community affairs or interacting with groups of people.

Answer 2

ok the first thing is that ure a piscies, but at the time u were bornyour rising sun was in gemini. rising sun tells about the way u behave when u first meet somone or make a first impression. its like a mask u wear on first encounters on all kind of matters. since ure a gemini in rising ure very talkative an make friends very easily when it comes to interacting with people. the ascendant is not ure rising sun. it depend on your birth date.
