1st House often called the "House of the Self", is the starting point in the astral chart, representing the Ascendant, which is the sign that was rising on the eastern horizon at the time of birth. It is the space that defines us, where we begin our journeys and express our individuality. It is through 1st House that we present ourselves to the world, shaping our self-image, because it will reveal how we start things, the quality of our actions and our primordial image, highlighting the innate characteristics that we bring at birth, and is therefore one of the most important houses in worldly terms. The analysis of House 1 provides a unique insight into our most original modus operandi, showing how it is the gear that guides us in life and determines our actions and reactions. In addition, its analysis also gives us information about our first identification with life, from our first steps to our initial vision of the world, thus being able to answer fundamental questions about who we are and how we move in the world. It is important to highlight that 1st House encompasses not only physical characteristics, such as style and appearance, but also psychological and behavioural aspects, with the planet occupying this house being able to influence our attractiveness, communication style and even our physical energy and libido. Sun in the 1st house The Sun in the first house of the astrological chart symbolises a prominent point, being illuminated by its energy. As it is directly related to the sign of Aries, where the Sun is exalted, this positioning gives the person a strong dose of self-confidence, self-love, autonomy, determination, courage and, possibly, leadership skills. As the cusp of the first house is the Ascendant, which marks the person's entry into the world as a being separated from their mother, the Sun here drives the subject to seek their place in the world, facing challenges with determination and determination. Thus, people with the Sun in the first house tend to show great enthusiasm, vitality and disposition, exuding a warm and jovial expression that often makes them captivating, attracting followers around them. However, it is important to be careful, because, as these people long to be recognized for their achievements and merits, those with the Sun in House 01 tend to blindly trust in their abilities to achieve their goals, which can, in some cases, turn them into arrogant, overbearing and vain beings. In addition, this unbridled search for recognition can make them self-centred and authoritarian, making it difficult to live with them and, at their worst, they can become tyrannical, insensitive and selfish, resisting any criticism and imposing their ideas without considering other perspectives. To avoid this, these natives need to find ways to use this energy constructively, and a good tip is to release their excess energy through sports and wellness activities, since they are people full of vitality who enjoy good health and vigour. Moon in the 1st house People with the Moon in 1st House have an emotional whirlwind that gives them a sharp sixth sense, being able to perceive the most subtle signs of other people's behaviour, which makes actions such as identifying sincerity, honesty or ulterior motives something instinctive for them. They are people who live in a constant back and forth of emotions, oscillating between joy and sadness in the blink of an eye, acting cautiously in some situations and impulsively in others, which reflects very well this diversity of feelings that takes over their being. In order not to be dominated by these volatile emotions, it is crucial that they let it out and recognize that they are not alone in their emotional struggles, seeking alternatives that allow them to express their feelings, such as the arts. In addition, the sensitivity of these individuals makes them vulnerable to social pressure, which makes them constantly seek acceptance. On the one hand, this makes them in tune with popular trends and tastes, easily picking up on fluctuations in public opinion, but on the other hand, it makes them susceptible to following dark paths due to pure external influence. Therefore, it is extremely important that these people learn not to overdo it in their search for approval so as not to end up sacrificing their own identity or falling into harmful traps. Investing in their own passions and emotionally committing to their activities is essential to feeling fulfilled and maintaining inner balance.

Investing in their own passions and emotionally committing to their activities is essential to feeling fulfilled and maintaining inner balance. Venus in the 1st house Venus in 1st House brings a touch of optimism and luck to those who have this positioning, making them more affable, charming and attractive people, which ends up favouring social interaction. The search for pleasure and well-being is one of the pillars that govern the mentality of these people, which ends up making them seek comfort without wanting to make efforts to evolve in their lives, and it is necessary to be very careful not to fall into the trap of complacency, avoiding stagnating in the comfort zone. Despite the tendency to complacency, these are people who care about their own physical appearance, sparing no effort to take care of their image. However, it is worth noting that this care is more linked to good artistic and aesthetic taste than following standards of physical beauty. This means that these are people who are more interested in good and refined things than in attending gyms and beauty studios, which makes them make an excellent first impression, and are often seen as attractive and charismatic due to their easygoing and refined behaviour. Venus in the first house is also related to initiative and the first attitudes towards desires, which makes people who need to actively seek their goals, especially in the emotional field, being crucial to find a balance between this search with proactive actions to avoid complacency and achieve true success and personal satisfaction. Mars in the 1st house With Mars in the first house, the person is driven by extra energy, manifesting a remarkable impetus to carry out activities and get involved in various initiatives. This planetary position not only contributes to greater physical vitality, making the body an additional source of personal security, but also enhances the capacity for personal organisation. Personal appearance and the way one presents oneself are given special prominence, reflecting one's propensity to initiate things and be direct, even if this may seem abrupt at times. This makes one the type of person who has a lower tolerance for indecision and can easily become frustrated with the lack of action in others. This impulsiveness can result in impatience when things do not go as planned, sometimes even evoking feelings of anger, so it is crucial that one monitors one's temper and controls one's ego to avoid unnecessary conflicts. Mars in the first house also inspires a strong independence, pushing the person to follow their own path, regardless of the opinions of others. This independence can be a great quality, but it can also lead to excessive individualism, making collaboration and cooperation difficult in certain situations. In addition, it is important for this person to find healthy ways to channel their energy, whether through vigorous physical activity, relaxation practices, or creative expression. This way, they can make the most of their dynamic and assertive potential, without letting it lead to unnecessary conflict or alienation from others. Jupiter in the 1st house Jupiter in the 1st House exerts a significant influence on a person's personality, significantly enhancing their spontaneity and charisma, which gives them a natural ability to captivate others, providing an aura of confidence and positivity that is usually perceived instantly. This contagious good humour, combined with their tendency to be generous and always see the good side of things, makes people follow them naturally, without much questioning. However, it is crucial that this person be careful not to let their ego become overly inflated or use their charisma in a manipulative way. Keeping their feet on the ground is essential to acting as an authentic leader, basing their actions on solid ethics and values, instead of getting carried away by momentary success. In addition, this position suggests greater chances of success in promoting one's own image, as Jupiter is associated with luck and governs areas such as image projection and initial impact on people. This means that the native can stand out in social and professional situations, being easily recognized and admired for his charisma and optimism. Another important point is that these are people who tend to neglect the details in favour of a broader and more panoramic view of things, and although this perspective is generally positive, it is important to find a balance between the broad vision and attention to detail to ensure consistent and sustainable progress in their endeavours. Saturn in the 1st House When Saturn is positioned in the 1st House, the process of self-discovery and maturation gains a peculiar intensity, where the person becomes more aware and responsible, developing a keen ability to distinguish between right and wrong, and rarely giving in to selfishness. However, this awareness often manifests itself under an appearance of reserve and defensiveness, making them seem cold to others, since they cultivate an instinct for self-preservation that makes them slow to open up to life and the people around them, an attitude that is deeply rooted in the fear of making mistakes or not being accepted. This hesitation can lead them to avoid following their true desires and taking on challenging commitments, which in turn makes them more demanding and rigid with themselves, which means that their actions are carefully calculated, with each step planned with well-defined objectives. Despite these complexities, the native clearly knows his goals and acts responsibly and prudently, with his achievements being the result of hard work and continuous effort. At this point, loneliness becomes an element that makes you self-sufficient and more focused on your goals, turning an apparent adversity into an opportunity for personal growth and the realisation of your ambitions. Uranus in the 1st House Uranus in the 1st House promotes a greater sense of leadership, highlighting truth, openness and transparency. People with this positioning tend to enjoy resolving their own challenges and facing difficulties, seeking greater freedom to act and a clearer perception of the opportunities that arise. In addition, achieving things has a strong appeal for them, and this feeling is aligned with a pioneering spirit and an innovative approach that gives them a visionary image, capable of inspiring and leading those around them with original and unusual ideas. However, Uranus in the 1st House also evokes less harmonious characteristics, such as eccentricity, restlessness and an explosive temperament, and there may be selfish impulses, a tendency to not accept orders and a sudden way of changing without prior notice. This unpredictability, in fact, is a trademark of these people, which can cause difficulties in maintaining all types of relationships. Therefore, as a challenge, the native must learn to be less unpredictable and abrupt, and to respect the environment around him/her, cooperating more with others. In addition, it is crucial that the native finds constructive ways to channel his/her energy and restlessness. Engaging in activities that promote freedom of expression, such as art, technological innovation, or involvement in social causes, can offer a positive outlet for this vibrant energy. Neptune in the 1st House People born with Neptune in the 1st House are often considered dreamers, capable of following a certain direction and, upon reaching a certain point, asking themselves: "How did I get here?". This tendency to disperse can make them live in a world apart, which causes them to create challenges in relation to their personal identity and clarity of purpose. It is extremely important to work on their focus on reality so as not to let themselves be completely carried away by their imagination. This positioning also gives the person a heightened sensitivity that can make them truly believe that their personality is unique and special, leading them to nurture high expectations of themselves to the point of being led in a direction based on dreams or illusions, with difficulties in imposing limits on themselves and being assertive. Often idealistic, they have a romantic view of life and people, which can lead to disappointment when reality does not match their expectations. It also makes them easily pick up on everything around them, needing to learn to protect themselves from negative influences. Another striking characteristic is the extra ability to influence others without them even realising it. This can manifest itself in subtle ways, such as through a calming or inspiring presence, or even through an ability to intuit and respond to the emotional needs of others. However, this ability can also be a double-edged sword, leading to unconscious manipulation or difficulty maintaining clear personal boundaries. Pluto in the 1st House Pluto in the 1st House brings with it an aura of transformation and renewal that makes the person rise from the ashes, always finding a way to bounce back. This makes it easy for them to deal with crises in a resolute manner and transform obstacles into opportunities for personal growth. All of this is thanks to their inner power and the control they have over themselves and their decisions, which makes them dedicate themselves with perseverance to all matters that are important to them. This positioning can also make the individual worry only about themselves, being indifferent to what surrounds them. This is largely due to their fear of feeling controlled, which ends up causing them to harbour an exaggerated distrust of others, thus projecting a cold or distant image. This distrust, combined with a great search for power, makes it difficult for this person to establish deep and healthy emotional bonds, both personal and professional, and can lead them to an extremely harmful emotional isolation. To deal with these challenges, it is important that she realises that she does not have the power to control everything in life and creates ways to reach out to others, sharing her experiences with the world. In addition, it is essential that she seeks activities and practices that promote self-understanding and emotional healing, thus seeking a balance between control and acceptance, using her inner power to promote positive changes not only in her life, but also in the world around her.
