The first house is the house of our identity, appearance and social mask that is on display for all to see. Here is your public persona and how people are to look at you. The planets here in a rising sign even give you natural looks and attributes and have a significant impact on your health. You need to know your rising sign because here is your first impression on people you meet.

Interesting that you do not see yourself as others can see you and often can wonder why. We feel strange about how they look at us, and it is because people see what is under the veil of your personality much more closer.

The natural sign of the 1st house is Aries, and the ruler is the planet Mars. Mars good qualities are openness and ability to experience who we are entirely, and we can dance with that vitality at all force. Mars can determine where you can be an open book and where you are very secretive, at what tasks you are friendly and feel togetherness and when you think to become a loner, when you feel weak and when you feel strong. All our life experiences are on the go and in motion, the Mars is poetry of your life experiences.

The first house along with the tenth house is the most important in the entire horoscope. It gives us information about the development of the character of the native. Albert Camus once observed that every person, starting from his twentieth year of life, is responsible for his face. He was referring to the fact that the character gradually forms the appearance of a person. In the same sense, we also need to understand the astrological principle: the ascendant will determine the presence of a person.

The 1st house is all about beginning – your childhood and first experiences and discoveries.

The planets that are moving through your first house give you some extreme energies. You just feel fired up, and you see sparkles and there start that glamour your life.

1st house continually helps you to develop personality straights through discoveries.

Planets are in the 1st house act on the personality subconsciously. Meditation experience can reveal more about our talents and sparkles. Once you learn about our qualities, you become more prominent.

Any planets in the First house are qualities of your first impressions on others. Planets here can influence how others respond to you. Venus and Jupiter attract you friends like magnets if you have them in your first house.

Ascendant in Signs

Ascendant in Aries

A fiery tribune pours mud at the dictator.

The first impression strongly influences this person. When he is in a good mood, the power of his influence on the world is excellent.

These people are sincere and easy-going and irresistible in their fiery charm. Here everything is expressed very sharply, sympathy and antipathy, acceptance and rejection, including oneself, and what the person does not accept in oneself, he exterminates with fire and sword, brutally suppresses or dislodges.

We need to learn how to attract the principle of Libra, to study our enemies (VII house) and adopt the best in them, namely, gain the ability to be calm, impartial, versatile and oriented towards aesthetic principles, rather than an ardent personal desire. If this person is “harassed,” he becomes dull, gray and lethargic, and falls into depression, from which it is difficult to extract by mental impact: he needs energy, enthusiasm, better coming from within, at least ideas that come from the outside.

Ascendant in Taurus

The tractor lifts the virgin land.

A person can be lazy to express himself. He usually does not talk too much unless there is a strong Mercury who will chatter even through Scorpionium Ascendant. Here are the limitations and stiffness of both perception and expression, but when a person learns something, he discovers it for good and makes it more powerful than everyone else.

It is necessary to overcome the dogmatic perceptions, focusing on its enemies (VII Scorpio House), which bite precisely in places least expected. This position gives a problematic karmic program, and to fulfill it, one must learn to see subtle plans and to move away from materialism in perception.

Ascendant in Gemini

A quick-legged hare rushes across the field, sweeping the snow dust.

This person reacts to movements, information, and new thoughts. It is difficult for him to focus his attention on something, to delve into the subject, to concentrate and to slow down.

His self-esteem is closely related to his mind and the brilliance of the thoughtful expression of the mind, to a lesser extent – to the ability of mental perception, because he quickly understands everything (as it seems to him). He wants to express himself and make new acquaintances.

People see this person often as a mental, social stamp, rather than person with a living feeling and experiences. A person has plenty of energy and needs to learn to be not just mentally intelligent, but emotionally intelligent.

It is necessary to understand the boundaries of rational analysis, not extending it to the field of energy ideas and immediate emotional sensations.

Ascendant in Cancer

The anxious frog dives into the saving depth of the native swamp.

A person often has low self-esteem, feels insecure and has a hard time to expresses his inner feelings, but this is a task a person shall learn.

Ascendant in Cancer gives the depth of personality and emotional intelligence, but others often do not see it because, for the most part, they see a person with a closed expression and silent attention. It’s hard to understand whether a person agrees with you or not if he approves or condemns what others think.

They need to learn from Capricorn practicality, purposefulness, and constructive work, and to eliminate distortions of emotional perceptions and expressions. They shall remember that the level of their own selfishness determines the degree of the ruthlessness of enemies.

Ascendant in Leo

A military parade is to celebrate the glorious victory over the adversary.

Ascendant in Leo gives dramatic perception and self-expression. This position of theatrical actors who bathe in the energy of admiration of their fans – and broadcast in large numbers in the hall during the performance. A person perceives the world and himself through the energy flows, enthusiasm, a storm and an onslaught.

If you want to impress with a person, you have to dress brighter, straighten your back, lift your head and light your eyes with a fire of admiration for them. On the contrary, if talking to you, he does not wag his tail, then you are utterly indifferent to him, or he is afraid of you (which is also unlikely).

You meet a bright personality, given great power over people. A person should wisely use the charm because such a person is very fond of his energy and direct control, forgetting about other people’s feelings and emotions. These people need an objective view of themselves and their actions, or they can become an unbearable treasure, a fanfare or ruthless dictators, whose ingenuous vanity is easily exploited by Aquarius enemies.

Ascendant in Virgo

The ants put an order in their dwelling.

Usually, this person is busy: he should bring comfort, cleanliness, and order to the world.

At a low level, it gives extreme tediousness and slovenliness, especially if the first house is damaged. Then a person is not satisfied with himself and the way he does things; a person has a hard time to rejoice sincerely.

A person knows how to see and appreciate the charm and perfection of small details in an external material world and likes to bring his skills to complete brilliance. This position is suitable for any work that requires meticulousness and thoroughness; this position is not good, where a quick general assessment is needed on incomplete data. A person has a hard time to synthesize, and he has difficulties with imagination. He understands things too literal and expresses his feelings too accurately, and feelings, as a result, die long before they appear outside. Virgo is much easier to say: “I feel for you a feeling of love” than “I love you”, and there is much to learn from their partners and enemies-deceivers Pisces.

Ascendant in Libra

The thing in itself is a thing for us in various ways, but never in its pure form.

Dispositor of the Ist house is in confinement. Here, perception is apparently objective, but often socially conditioned; in general, the person has a strong imprint of social attitudes, attitudes, and modes.

In self-esteem, the beautiful moment is vital because a person wants to see himself beautiful; he wants to fees harmony with the surrounding world and his inner state, which, however, he perceives through rationalizations. A person has strong mental self-deceptions. This is a difficult situation, especially if the 1st house is damaged. A person wants to restore the justice and eliminate disharmony, but, first of all, he must see the imbalance, master his vision of the world, establish internal balance, and only then influence the external reality.
This is difficult because there are no socially acceptable concepts to express it. Therefore, a person follows by socially induced ethics and aesthetics, but because it is poorly coordinated with his deep internal ideas on issues, – it causes him frustration. When a person cannot find the right place for him in life and society, not in place, but he can not understand why this happens and continue to follow his false rationalizations. They need to learn from their enemies and partners Arieses to be sincere and determine and search for truth.

Ascendant in Scorpio

Bringing up love for children, Cobra does not become less poisonous.

People with Scorpio on their Ascendant may have a biased view of the external and internal world.
The person is demanding of oneself and applies indulgence towards others. At a low level, the person lives in acute self-pity asking self-justification and global condemnation of the outside world in any critical situation. Here, emotions hurt the personality so much that it is tough to be objective to oneself.

It is possible to dispel self-deception only through long and hard efforts, with humility bearing the burden of the enemies and partners via hardship. One must learn restraint in emotions and remember that self-pity is poisonous, and selfishness is bottomless and devouring. A person needs to practice self-love and self-control and develop compassion toward others.

Ascendant in Sagittarius

Tracer bullets illuminate a spiritual goal.

Sagittarius Ascendant gives the person a rude-good-natured, full of good intentions. They perceive the world through higher aspirations and ideals.

If the Ist house is harmonious, the person will look at life optimistically. He always finds a way out of a difficult situation, especially if you are in trouble and he will give you advice in no case to lose hope (because he is always lucky). Deep emotions and all sorts of spiritual intricacies are not his roles.

If a person has a strong Venus or Jupiter, in I or V houses, people fall in love with him.

They need to learn from enemies and partners Gemini to user thoughtful analysis which will be of a great help to their determination and energy.

Ascendant in Capricorn

Roads of fate, as a rule, are country roads less traveled.

Ascendant in Capricorn gives a person who are not inclined to trade out on trifles. He internally knows that he is capable of achieving anything, and all he needs is to set a target. However, he is very capricious when he chooses by selecting the goal.

The objective should be worthwhile and sufficiently specific. Otherwise, there is no satisfaction. Here self-esteem is strict, and small karmic programs are not taken into account. That’s to organize large-scale industrial production and become the head of the concern – it tickles the pride of a director.

At a low level of elaboration, the individual is an endless student who does not believe in anything and tries different businesses without any hope of success. They need to apply lots of efforts to develop a reliable character and ability to wait long without losing patience, as well as the ability to replace hope with a sense of duty. And they become people who speak without effect, and their words sound like an immutable truth and prophecy.

It is necessary to overcome universal distrust, dry manners, and develop a sense of fashion and style. His enemies teach him to look deep into the essence and take into account the emotions of people, which a person with Ascendant in Capricorn is inclined to forget.

Ascendant in Aquarius

The beautiful balloon tears to the sky, while on the ground.

The person with the Ascendant in Aquarius perceives the external world and himself mentally and detached.

He is interested in original ideas and people. He has slightly unusual views of the world, not consistent with the generally accepted beliefs. Freedom and independence of personal self-expression is not a whim, but a vital necessity.

He often confuses friendship with love, but if the I house and Aquarius are not greatly affected, does not like to break the relationship and always wants to remains friends. He can make a cold impression like a person with Gemini Ascendant but in reality, it is not true. He prefers to keep relations in a purely friendly way, and not give flowers, but smartbooks

At a low level, it is an eccentric who does not understand the world well, and worse he understands himself. He remains stubborn in his antics and fond of science fiction.

Ascendant in Pisces

In warm waves of the southern sea, a translucent jelly tiptoes.

A person at the highest level can rich a true wisdom, an understanding of life following the principle of non-resistance to evil.

A person accepts the world as is, and gives battle to others, directing his efforts with his equal attention.

At a low level, this person makes an amorphous impression; You can control this person subordinating his will.People can complain about their lives and receive sympathy, regardless of the content of the story, a person will be patient and compassionate. A person possesses the tremendous emotional sensitivity to other people’s experiences and pain.

Protection is falsehood and self-deception. This person is usually kind and genteel, of course, within reasonable limits.

Perception is soft, enveloping; people instinctively avoid acute angles in the external world and themselves. It is necessary to develop honesty and precise actions learning from their partners and enemies Virgos.

The Sun On the Ascendant

This position of the Sun belongs to people who were born at dawn. Sun on the Ascendant increases the brightness of a person’s life, gives a person improved physical strength. In life, such a person radiates energy around him. Such a person will be persistent and vigilant since he has “solar” characteristics.

The Moon On the Ascendant

People are born at the rising of the night light. The psyche of them will be labile. The moon affects them during all its phases. Such a position can be favorable for actors, painters, artists or people of changeable professions.

When the moon is “crushed” by unfavorable aspects (as it was in the horoscope of Goya), then it forms a gloominess in a person, some pretentiousness, an abrupt change of psychological cycles (as was the case with Charlie Chaplin and Rossini). All this causes a somewhat weak personality, especially in men, determines the tendency to sentimentality, or even to hysteroid reactions. For example, in the Roman emperor Tiberius, was suspicious and had a premonition of danger.

The unfavorable aspects of the Moon on the ascendant may form the delicate psyche of a person, especially when the Moon is in the 12th house.

The person needs to practice concentration and meditation and develop positive characteristics of the moon.

Mercury On the Ascendant

A person born on the rise of Mercury, forms flexibility, cunning, dexterity in life’s vicissitudes. They are crafty, resourceful, with quick intelligence and mobility.

Hemingway, Nicholas I, academic practitioners, many politicians (Aldo Moro) and diplomats have Mercury on the ascendant.

The delicate constitution of the constitution, thinness, thin bone, joint mobility, some angular movements, long pointed fingers, a somewhat pointed nose, small sharp eyes and, as a rule, high growth forms Mercury on the ascendant.

Saturn in the First House

People with Saturn in the first house resist life. They often expect the worst is to come. They demand a lot form themselves.  They always think they can do better. They imagine that others all the time condemn and evaluate them, but in fact, it is their self-criticism.

Usually, they have a good sense of responsibility and willingness to work hard. They want to prove their worth to the world – and wish to undergo collective verification and get recognition. These people are ambitious, showing the steely determination to do something on their own.

Since early childhood, they enjoy limitations and difficulties. They ever expect their surroundings to support them. They show independence and personal creativity at early age. Furthermore, they often have far too many responsibilities in their childhood.

Later in life, they often experience more fun and spontaneity.

People with Saturn in the First House set their goals realistically; then they quite inexorably and methodically achieve these goals.

Parsa Fortunes in a 1st house

A person is born about the new moon. Success comes when a person continually strives for something to achieve, strives for the victory. As soon as a person adapts to society, he or she becomes independent. These people often take responsibility for themselves and do not to rely on others. A person becomes happy when he or she recognizes and appreciates his personal merits.

Vesta in a First House

Vesta’s placement in the horoscope shows where and how we can be dedicated, where we can focus our energies on the most significant effect. But it also shows where, periodically, we have to withdraw and “recharge our batteries.” If we don’t, we will become drained, and even sick.

Vesta in the 1st House: Now and then, you have to get away from everybody and everything to recharge.

Where Vesta resides, we must allow the other person to see what we hold most dear, and that is where we are the most vulnerable. Vesta is active and willing to share and add a beautiful touch to a relationship. Vesta can be a key to devotional bond that many of us crave. Often, the planet person honors the Vesta person by becoming the ‘keeper at the gate.’ The unacknowledged promise is, “I love what you love; therefore I will accept it by protecting it.

Vesta and Lilith in Conjunction with a First House

Lilith woman is wild and electric, often charged with a ‘don’t break my stride, fence me in or try to define me’ air of anarchy. Vesta woman perfects personal regimes and organization to fuel creative and health vibe – their autonomy is central, but they’re less sensation-driven and more settled than a Lilith.

Lilith can bring creative powers or destructions and Vesta beings power and dedication. It is better those energies are directed to spiritual goals.

Albert Einstein: Vesta on the Asc. Einstein stuck to his guns many times over the years when he was challenged about his theories, certain he was right (sometimes not having the math to prove it). His unalterable belief in himself saw him through.
