Moon Sign vs Ascendant
Two identity anchors that answer different questions.
Moon sign and ascendant are both useful first answers, but they are not interchangeable. Moon sign explains the inner response pattern. Ascendant explains the chart frame and life approach.
When Moon Sign Should Come First
Start with Moon sign when the user wants one emotionally recognizable answer without needing to understand houses yet.
When Ascendant Should Come First
Start with ascendant when the user already wants house-specific, lagna-specific, or full-chart style interpretation.
