1st House in Astrology...
|
Signs and planets in the first house color the way we interact with the world. They influence the way we see the world, and the way the world sees us in return. Our self-image is greatly affected by the planets and signs in the first house. Whether we interpret the world through feelings, reasoning or intuition is determined by the first house. The first house also describes how we expect the world to treat us and how we treat the world. The first point of the first house is the ascendant, or our rising sign, which is one of the big players in the natal chart. Naturally, this means that the first house is a big player in the natal chart. Signs in the first house, but not on the ascendant are far less powerful than the sign on the ascendant. Planets which are closest to the ascendant are more powerful than those which are further from it. Planets in the twelfth house, which are a few degrees away from the first house should be considered part of the first house.

Planets in the 1st House...Sun in the 1st House...With the sun in the first house, great effort is put into creating and maintaining a good self image. The way they are perceived by others is paramount to first-house sun people. These people want to be proud of themselves and the way they come across to the world. A sunny disposition is generally attributed to this placement, and a positive attitude is normally displayed. There is concern over physical appearance and people with a first-house sun will want to look their best. A proud attitude is found, and if slighted or embarrassed, this person will feel it as an affront to their whole being.

Moon in the 1st House...
With their moon in their first house of self expression, this person's emotions are easy to read. They feel their way through the world and are sensitive to emotional currents and reactions from others. It is easy to see if they are hurt or happy. They may try to hide their emotions, but it is difficult. They are on display. First-house moon people are cautious in their interactions and always on guard for fear of getting hurt. They will move slowly into new interactions and take care to assess the emotional impact every step of the way.
Mercury in the 1st House...
|
Preferring to intellectualize everything it encounters, Mercury brings a subtle detached quality to the first house. The person with Mercury in their first house wants to analyze the world. Mercury here will disregard feelings and use a calculating approach to understanding other people, and the world as they encounter it. People with Mercury in their first house, especially near the ascendant, have a strong need to communicate and talk about themselves. When they aren't talking about themselves, they are talking about their interpretation of the world. It can be as though they are providing a constant news report of their thoughts.
Venus in the 1st House...Tactful, diplomatic and attractive, Venus in the first house lends a subtle, gentle and pleasing quality to personality and to the chart holder's view of the world. Venus wants to be attractive. It is always the ultimate goal of the planet. In the first house of self expression, Venus makes physical beauty an important facet of the person's life. This person is well dressed and groomed. They will also adhere to social protocol and choose words and actions carefully to avoid being offensive. Venus in the first house will soften a person's appearance to the world and likewise, soften the person's view of the world.
Mars in the 1st House...Mars in the first house lends a straightforward and direct quality to a person's personality. Headstrong and willful, these people know how to get what they want and they aren't afraid to ask for it or fight for it. Because Mars represents the "will" and a person's ability to assert their will, Mars in the first house, of reaching out and interacting with the world, creates a powerful combination. Mars in the first house doesn't hold back. When it sees what it wants, it reaches out and grabs it. It says what it wants to say and makes sure it is heard. Mars in the first house sees life as a challenge to be conquered.

Jupiter in the 1st House...Never shy or restrained, first-house Jupiter people are expansive and often larger than life. A positive attitude is generally felt along with a feeling of lawlessness. Jupiter refuses to have limits. With Jupiter in the first house, this limitlessness emanates through the personality and attitude towards life. Rules and boundaries are unacceptable to Jupiter, as the planet refuses to be held back from getting want it wants. Jupiter in the first house is candid and forthright. These people are confident about their self-image.
Saturn in the 1st House...In the first house, Saturn brings a serious outlook on life the chart holder and on their self-image. Life is meant to be hard work and struggle is necessary for this person. Saturn in the first house often colors a person's personality with a somber tone making them pessimistic and doubtful about their self-image. Because these people expect life to be difficult, it often is. In the best of scenarios, first-house Saturn people project a mature, responsible attitude and work hard to achieve. In the worst, they are negative and dreary with a poor self image. There is often a feeling of being trapped in the shell of their physical body without the confidence to fully embrace their self-image.
Uranus in the 1st House...Uranus brings a dry, indifference to the personality of the person with this planet falling into their first house. Feelings are intellectualized as the planet creates a barrier between the chart holder and the outside world by using reason over emotion. First-house Uranus people are even-tempered, direct and clear in their interactions with the world. They are difficult to rattle or shock and not likely to let it show if they are. Care is taken to follow standard social protocol when meeting new people and they aren't shy about introductions to either new people or new situations.
Neptune in the 1st House...A blur between the chart holder and the outside world is created with Neptune in the first house. This person is likely to talk in circles and it is often difficult to find their point in a conversation. They can change topics frequently and ramble sometimes in seemingly nonsensical ways. Yet, despite this scattered tendency in their verbal communication, they have a keen sense of the emotional undercurrents present in interactions with people. A sensitivity to unspoken forms of communication including body language is found with a first-house Neptune. These people want to see the world in the best light possible, which can cause a disconnect from reality. This, combined with a tendency to follow the path of least resistance in interactions with the world, creates a personality which is somewhat elusive.
Pluto in the 1st House...Suspicious by nature, first-house Pluto people are always on guard for the people who are looking to take advantage of them. They are careful in their interactions with people and new situations, often asking the right questions in order to gain insight into the true nature of the person or situation they are encountering. At the same time, they reveal very little about themselves. This is a defensive behavior and works to maintain their sense of control. Intense eye contact is often found with first-house Pluto people during interactions with new people as they feel they may gain information from peering into the eyes.
