1st house in Cancer

What are astrological houses
Astrological houses divide the personal horoscope into twelve parts – twelve areas of your life. The houses in personal horoscope are based on the position of the Ascendant, which is the most eastern point at the moment of your birth. The Ascendant also represents the axis of the first house and is one of the most important points in personal horoscope of every individual.

The first house starts in the sign where your Ascendant is, all the next houses then follow in other signs (each house has approximately 30 degrees). Each personal horoscope has all 12 houses, but not all houses are occupied – there are 12 houses, but only 10 planets, therefore even more houses can be completely empty.

Planets in houses
The planets in the houses are actually more important than the houses in signs. If a planet appears in a house, it means that the area that this house represents is important for you. The more planets you have in one house, the more this house is important for you.

House of Aries, ruled by Mars

The first house represents your looks, your personality, your presence, beginnings of your achievements, your individuality and way of expression – the way you dress, talk, walk, etc. It indicates the way you let or want others to see and perceive you. It also indicates your birth, it represents your body, health, in what way you start acting and tackle challenges, what your basic outlook and approach to life is.

Home, family and parents are the most important things for you and that is where you direct most of your energy. Tradition and upbringing certainly play a very important role; although you have a rebellious nature and want to escape all that, you often give in to your emotions and can't see the situation realistically.

The environment, in which you move, can have a big influence on you – both positive and negative. And until you can separate your reason from your emotions, you will always be sort of dependent on the environment; you will be easily manageable and without inner energy to start the action, project, new acquaintance or adventure.

Calm and emotional

You are calm, shy, gentle, have a round face, bright eyes, vivid imagination and a somewhat poetic appearance. For you to blossom, you need a lot of attention, love and encouragement. That is why you find it very hard to make new contacts and you, in search of courage to face with (in your opinion) the enormously harsh world, indulge in pleasures and drinking.

But when you do find a true friend, (s)he can count on you in any moment and in any case; then you become part of your friend's family, where everything is orderly and has its place. Nevertheless, you are a person, always prepared for change and you often move.
