I have found some great websites that explain meanings when, for instance, someones mars is in another persons ..lets say 4th house.

But what about house placement?

From a natal perspective, I am also trying to wrap my head around this:

Ruler of the First House in the First House.

Angles contacting Angles will be notable and can be very powerful.

Think of the Houses as areas of your life and planets as parts of your consciousness. So the first house is the area of your life which concerns YOU; your demeanour, your persona, your dress sense, your method of interacting, your view of the world.

The ruler of the first house IN the first house indicates you likely be very easy to read by others. You are who you say you are. You will appear trustworthy and to have integrity. Whatever planets rules your Ascendant/1st House will affect your physical features and personality more than most. (Though you may have 2 other planets in the first house too, so of course much depends on the rest of your chart).

Aries - Mars
Taurus - Venus
Gemini - Mercury
Cancer - Moon
Leo - Sun
Virgo - Mercury
Libra - Venus
Scorpio - Pluto (Mars)
Sagittarius - Jupiter
Capricorn - Saturn
Aquarius - Uranus (Saturn)
Pisces - Neptune (Jupiter)

So if your ascendant (1st house) is Virgo, it is ruled by Mercury. The second house would be Libra, ruled by Venus and so on.

"If I solarize a planet in your chart, then I press it to emerge energetically, vividly, and actively in your life.

If I lunarize a planet in your chart, then I nourish and support it, and render it moodier and more aware of its needs.

If I mercurialize a planet in your chart, then I press it to speak, to stretch, to gather more information, to think about itself, and to articulate its nature.

If I venusify a planet in your chart, then I warm it, seduce it, and induce in it a desire to connect with me and exchange energy with me. I may also "civilize" it, and encourage it to beautify itself.

If I martialize a planet in your chart, then I press it toward courage and assertiveness, also bringing out whatever anger or frustration it may contain.

If I jovialize a planet in your chart, then I encourage and support it, cheerleading it on toward wider horizons, a willingness to take risks, and more faith in itself.

If I saturnize a planet in your chart, then I invite it to mature and to face reality squarely. I ask it to discipline itself, to make hard choices decisively, and to bring its intentions into concrete manifestation.

If I uranize a planet in your chart, then I press it toward individuation, toward rebellion against "tribal" mythology, and toward free-spirited experimentation.

If I neptunify a planet in your chart, then I enchant and mesmerize it, softening it and filling it with inspiration, spiritual renewal, and imaginative imagery.

If I plutonify a planet in your chart, then I trigger the emergence of unconscious or wounded material connected with it, challenging it to grow and to implement the soul's healing intentions.

This language also helps codify our understanding of House Transpositions as well. If, for example, my Neptune falls in your Tenth House, I'll have a neptunifying impact upon your career. That may be a big deal, or a very minor part of the picture, depending on two factors: a) the strength of my natal Neptune, and b) the importance of career to you, as reflected in your birthchart. The interaction would also be strengthened enormously if my Neptune made some serious aspects to your natal planets, especially a conjunction with a Tenth House planet of yours, or a vigorous aspect to the ruler of your Midheaven."

There is no manner of astrological interaction between two people that is so inherently sweet that enough selfishness, confusion about sex, or immaturity cannot turn it sour.
