What is the first house?
The first house of the chart is the beginning of your natal chart, with each house of your chart containing different celestial bodies and figures that correspond to their placements at the time of your birth.
Significantly, the first house also bears the sign that was rising on the eastern horizon when you were born. The exact time of your birth is important in the calculation, as this indicates the exact degree of your Ascendant Sign (also called Ascendant Sign). You can find the “peak” or beginning of the first house of your natal chart at the nine o’clock position on the chart wheel.
The first house of your personal horoscope is of incredible importance astrologically. It can provide information about how you present yourself to the world. In addition, the First House can affect your physical appearance and affect other people’s first impression of you.
Many people even believe that a person’s first home placement can affect their face, body structure, and overall health.
What is the meaning of the house of self?
As mentioned above, the first house determines your looks and personality, the parts of you that the world sees immediately. However, its importance goes far beyond that. These placements affect how people perceive you, not just in terms of your looks, but the energy you radiate. This house shapes the persona you project to the rest of the world and how you make others feel. It also rules your immediate environment, your home, your “body environment” and even your taste in clothing.
In short, the 1st house influences both your “true self” and the version of you that is seen by everyone else.
The first house and the rest of your chart
While the first house is the house of self, each house governs something different. For example, the second house concerns money matters, while the third describes your neighbors and siblings. The seventh rule intimate partnerships; the tenth house determines your career; and the 12th house governs how you deal with solitude and what you do to “get away from it all” – and these are just a few examples of the different meanings associated with the 12 houses in astrology.
The placements in the rest of your horoscope and the receptions and aspects they have with your first ruler and planet tell the whole story of how you interact with the world. While you can glean some information from your first house alone, this knowledge is always best understood with the context provided by the other houses in your chart.
Is the horoscope ruler in the 1st house?
Many people wonder if their chart ruler can be found by looking at the first house. The answer is complicated – sometimes yes and sometimes no. If the planet ruling the 1st house is strong (if it is in a sign that it rules), then yes, it will probably rule the chart itself.
But when it is in “fall” (like Venus is in Virgo) or in “damage” (like Mars in Taurus), then it will usually give way to whichever planet in your chart is strongest based on its sign. house and aspects.
To explain: A planet in autumn is the faintest sign for its expression – as opposed to its sign of exaltation. Likewise, a planet in damage does not feel at home and, in fact, feels very uncomfortable because it is in a position opposite to the sign it rules.
Understanding “dignity” in your chart is also key to learning more about your chart ruler and the key influences. Dignity is an astrological term that determines the strength of an individual planet in relation to the horoscope as a whole. Planets are strongest in their ruling signs and also in their signs of exaltation. It is also important to distinguish which planets “rule” the 1st house and which are within it. Both are very important, but have different effects.
Understand the placements of the first house
The planet ruling the 1st house is indicated by the sign located on its cusp. As mentioned above, this is your ascendant sign. It shows how you present yourself, your personality and your external appearance. Planets in the 1st house, on the other hand, alter your activities and behavior, adding more nuance and detail to your ascendant.
For example, let’s say Venus is in your first house of self, but this Ruler Your first house is actually Saturn. Thanks to Venus, even with Saturn’s influence, you will be charming, tactful, and kind. However, Saturn will decide how and with whom you use this spell.
If Saturn is in your 1st house but your ruler is Jupiter, then you are disciplined and possibly more mature than most people your age. However, thanks to Jupiter’s influence, you are likely to be far more generous and cheerful than most other people who have Saturn in their 1st house.
It is important to remember that 1st house planets still operate within the “domain” of both the sign they inhabit and that sign’s planetary ruler. When they are not in the house they rule, they are simply guests and do not have full agency.
Figuring out your chart ruler can seem difficult, especially when your first house rankings and ruler are pretty weak. If you’re having trouble identifying your horoscope ruler, an astrology psychic can give you the insight you need to figure it out and understand what it means.
