The Houses in Astrology
When you see your natal chart you notice that the circle is divided into twelve sections.
These are called houses. In Astrology each house rules over specific areas in your life.
Houses contain signs and planets. Each houses is ruled by a sign and the sign is in turn
ruled by a planet. Thus a houses is associated with both a sign and a planet. Houses,
signs and planets all interact together in your astrological chart. Planetary rulers of the
sign,
planets in the house and the aspects they form with other planets will strongly influence
the
houses and the areas it rules.
The 1st House
Sign Ruler: Aries
Planetary Ruler: Mars
In astrology, the First House is closely related to the Ascendant. The 1st house represents
how you see yourself, attitude, general philosophy, initiative, impulsiveness, new ideas,
courage, your drives, personal challenges and perhaps your physical appearance. The
sign that occupies this house will typically show how you see life in general, where you
are
most impulsive and daring, and where you face many of your personal challenges. I
Note: Vega Attractions takes a different approach to the 1st house and ascendant. Many
other astrologers believe they describe how others see you. We believe this to be the
10th
