The slant of 23.4 degrees of the Earth’s axis causes a variation in time taken for different signs to rise or ascend over the horizon (particularly at middle latitudes).
The signs requiring more time are rise are referred to as signs of long ascension and those requiring less time are called signs of short ascension.
In the Northern Hemisphere, the signs of long ascension are Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, and Sagittarius. The longest times taken to rise among these are Virgo and Libra.
The signs of short ascension are Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, and Gemini. The shortest times taken to rise among these are Pisces and Aries. The signs of long ascension in the northern hemisphere are seen as of short ascension in the southern hemisphere.

It not understood how Scorpio and Aquarius be grouped as of long and short ascension when celestial longitudnal length(in hrs. ie 1hr-15 degree)of Scorpio is much less than aquarius. Besides it area of Aquarius is 2nd largest behind Virgo.Moreover Leo lies in the northern celestial latitude and Aquarius in southern celestial latitude.This is an latest astronomical report.Pl. clarify your view taking into the above
