First House

personality In astrology, the first house is known as the ascendant and relates to the person's physical body, personal style, and overall demeanor. It can also be referred to as the "self" house, as it symbolizes the individual's identity – their sense of self, how they come across to others, and how they present themselves. It concerns oneself and the way others perceive them and is associated with communication and strategies used to cope with life.
