I've found that analyzing House Rulerships gives you a well-rounded understanding of how different energies are exchanged within one's chart.

For example, in my chart (doing this in the third person):

The 1st House represents the PERSONA, the Chart Ruler.
1st house (Libra) ruler = Venus Rx (PLEASURE, ATTRACTION)
Aspects:
1st house ruler conjunct Mercury Rx (COMMUNICATION)
1st house ruler square Mars (RAW ENERGY)

In this case, the PERSONA is expressed with "Venusian" qualities (romantic, cooperative). The PERSONA conjunct Mercury Rx means the subjects intellect is always connected to their PERSONA. With Venus and Mercury both in Rx, this energy is focused inwardly, so these qualities are muted and introverted.

Also, Mercury Rx is the ruler of the 9th house, the house of the HIGHER MIND. The Chart Ruler conj. the 9th House ruler manifests into a PERSONA that is merged with the processes of the subject's HIGHER MIND.

The subjects PERSONA and HIGHER MIND are at odds with their Mars (RAW ENERGY). This manifests into a problems with impulsive communication (HIGHER MIND against RAW ENERGY) and surprisingly aggressive behavior ("Venusian" PERSONA against RAW ENERGY) both provoked and arbitrary during debates surrounding subjects of the HIGHER MIND (Religion, Philosophy, etc).

---

I'll do another: The 2nd House. This is one is less involved.

2nd House represents PERSONAL FINANCES & ASSETS.
2nd house (Scorpio) ruler = Pluto (death, rebirth, power)
Aspects:
2nd house ruler trine Sun (ego)
2nd house ruler sextile Neptune (illusion, dreams, subconscious)

The second house rules how the subject handles personal financial matters. The subject acquired assets in a "Plutonian" fashion: protective, strategic with a heavy fear of loss.

Pluto is trine the Sun. Their EGO is enhanced by what they OWN & ACQUIRE. More often than not, the EGO depends the talents of Pluto to bolster their self-esteem. Karmic lessons include learning to find value in one's most inner strengths rather than possessing resources for the sake of power or security.

Also, the Sun is the ruler of the 11th House. That means the subjects PERSONAL FINANCES & ASSETS are merged with their FRIENDSHIPS & SOCIETY. This one speaks for itself. FRIENDSHIPS are often opportunities for advancement or investments. May denote joint finances with organizations or higher causes.

Pluto is sextile Neptune. Their PERSONAL FINANCES & ASSETS suppliment their SUBCONSCIOUS and ILLUSIONS. Native may make money through artistic pursuits, but often chases dreams of being wealthy. You may escape reality through your material possessions, believing that wealth and the acquirement of wealth is all you need to make you feel happy, secure, and in control of your life. Obviously, we all know that this is not the case. Again, karmic lessons include learning to find value in one's most inner strengths rather than possessing resources for the sake of power or security.

This way of interpreting astrology - starting with house 1 and working your way around, is much clearer and organised than before.

There are two ways to do astrology this way - one which will satisfy your need for doing astrology from a planet perspective (almost) - it goes something like this:

1. Link one house ruler to another. 1st ruler is conjunct 3rd ruler. Self (1st) is linked with mind (3rd) showing the intelligence link.

2. Link ONE house ruler to a planet. This is what I call 'isolation.' 1st ruler is conjunct Mars which shows that you are comfortable on your own and you are very assertive (positive aspect.)

When interpreting this way, I must stress that I DO NOT link the houses on the inside. Why? It's too much to interpret. Not only do you interpret the sign on house, but you also interpret any houses which are linked by the house ruler on the inside of the wheel, but also any isolated planets as shown in option two, when you just link one house ruler to a planet, by aspect.

Sign on house, house ruler aspects. That's enough for anyone to follow and give interpretations.

Here we go. I'll make this very abridged. I need to train myself to be less verbose.

1st House (PERSONA) : Sagittarius - Jupiter
Aspects
Jupiter conjunct Uranus
Jupiter sextile Sun

Jupiter + Uranus (Ruler of 3rd) : Merging of PERSONA and LOWER MIND. An expansive mind interested in literature, language, and communication.

Jupiter sextile Sun (Ruler of 9th House) : EGO supports need for EXPANSION, which supports the efforts of the EGO.

2nd House (ASSETS) : Capricorn - Saturn
Aspects
Saturn conjunct Pluto

Saturn + Pluto (Ruler of 12th House) : Merging of ASSETS and SECRETS, KARMIC DEBTS, ENEMIES.

Saturn and Pluto create a need for structured control and controlled structure. You have a very strong need for control in your life, often bolstering your own defenses. You feel the need to eliminate any extraneous material possessions that may interfere with financial responsibility. You live by the bare bones of life.

Father may have been missing or absent during childhood, which led to premature financial responsibility and harsh lessons as a child - most likely from the motherly figure. Astrology aside, I have a feeling that your mother took the role of "father" and overcompensated. Yes? No? This one is intuition.

3rd House (LOWER MIND) : Aquarius - Uranus
Aspects
Uranus sextile Sun
Uranus conjunct Jupiter

Uranus sextile Sun (Ruler of 9th House) : REBELLION supports the need of the EGO, which supports the subject's need for INNOVATION. These efforts are focused on subjects of the HIGHER MIND.

Jupiter + Uranus : See interpretation above.

A very unique, independent mind - perhaps shockingly outlandish at times.

4th House (HOME, MOTHER) : Pisces - Neptune
Aspects
Neptune square Sun
Neptune square Moon
Neptune trine Venus
Neptune trine Mars
Neptune sextile Pluto

Note : Girrrrrrl, you have a lot of karmic debts in your 4th house, especially with your mother. I can already tell that you two do NOT get along.

Neptune square Sun (Ruler of 9th House) : YOUR HOME/MOTHER is conflicting with your HIGHER MIND. Either the home you grew up restricted your ability to experience different planes of spirituality, or your mother does not approve of your choice of spirituality. College (HIGHER EDUCATION) was a particularly difficult time for you. Your MOTHER did not support your choice of career or field of study. Mother was over protective of what you were exposed to on all subjects pertaining to the 9th House.

Neptune square Moon (Ruler of 8th House) : YOUR HOME/MOTHER is conflicting with your JOINT FINANCES, DEATH, SEXUALITY. From what I saw in your 2nd house, intuitively I feel as if you have a heavy financial burden to carry... perhaps because of your mother or something that happened over time. If not a financial debt, it may be a debt of self-worth that you've felt over time because of your living situation growing up. I feel like you were deprived of something, but not sure... has to do with personal worth (which can really be defined in many ways...) and your mother.

Neptune trine Venus (Ruler of 6th House/11th House) : YOUR HOME/MOTHER is enhanced by your SERVICE/WORTH ETHIC and FRIENDSHIPS & SOCIETY (and vice versa). Your mother taught you how to work hard. Despite negative aspects found elsewhere, you have learned to be self-sufficient and you've applied many difficult lessons you've learned in childhood towards your sense of SERVICE and WORTH ETHIC. In turn, you are driven to use those skills to build a more harmonious and enriched home. You're particularly focused on creating a safe haven for yourself to HEAL within and feel safe. Venus and Neptune create an altruistic and non-violent person; a enrichment between the 6th House by the 11th house manifests into an individual that is sympathetic towards humanitarian issues.

Neptune trine Mars (Ruler of 5th House) : YOUR HOME is enhanced by your need for CREATIVITY. SELF-EXPRESSION enhances your HOME. This one is pretty self-explanatory.

Neptune sextile Pluto (Ruler of 12th House) : HOME/MOTHER is supplemented by your SECRETS, KARMIC DEBTS, ENEMIES. Not really sure what to make of this one... Self-explanatory? Bad karma with Mom?...

5th House (SELF-EXPRESSION/CREATIVITY) : Aries - Mars
Aspects
Mars conjunct Venus
Mars trine Neptune
Mars sextile Pluto

Mars + Venus (Ruler of 6th and 11th House) : Venus + Mars manifests as an individual that combines their need for sensuality and pleasure with passion and raw energy. In short, you are a sexy beast.

Additionally, this aspect is also a merging between your SELF-EXPRESSION/CREATIVITY and your sense of SERVICE/WORTH ETHIC. You believe work is a piece of art, and art may actually be your work.

Mars trine Neptune : See above.

Mars sextile Pluto (ruler of the 12th House) : SELF-EXPRESSION is an accessory to your SECRETS, KARMIC DEBTS, ENEMIES. You die and are reborn again when you release RAW ENERGY (aka ANGER) over your old hurts and dark secrets. Karmic debts and past hurts inspire raw, uninhibited creativity.

6th House (SERVICE/WORK ETHIC) : Taurus - Venus
Aspects
Venus conjunct Mars
Venus trine Neptune
Venus sextile Pluto

Venus conjunct Mars: See above
Venus trine Neptune: See above

Venus sextile Pluto (Ruler of the 12th House) : SERVICE/WORK ETHIC supplemented by SECRETS, KARMIC DEBTS, ENEMIES. In this lifetime, you are paying off a karmic debt through service to others. Perhaps in a past life you were too proud, perhaps even unkind to servants. In this lifetime, you are learning to be humble and to "serve" others. Venus is more than just PLEASURE or ATTRACTION in this aspect. I feel like you are here in this lifetime to understand the true nature of love and relationships through service to others. Just my two cents. I'm super tired right now (it's 3am!) so I'm just saying whatever my intuition tells me at this point, lol.

7th House (RELATIONSHIPS) : Gemini - Mercury
Aspects
Mercury opposite Moon
Mercury square ASC

My dad was a good dad but from age 10 to 20 he was traveling back and forth from birth town to Miami bc his business was in home town. The economy got bad so business closed and around 21 years of age he was around on a daily basis but before then it was like half of his time in my birthtown and half of his time in Miami with us. Bc of this my mom I feel felt she had to be extra controlling with me bc she felt scare I suppose. Since we moved my mom did start to make more money than my dad since doctors in USA make a lot more than doctors in the caribbean so she was per say the breadwinner but during the first 10 years of my life my dad made more money. Your intuition is right. He wasn't absent but was absent partially for 10 years and my mom did take on the role of both mother and father while he was gone.

She adores me and I adore her but hell yeah it has been a rocky road with her. I feel there were poor boundaries between us and she wanted to breath for me. She is controlling and a worrier and I am a free thinker, freedom lover who always felt over protected by her so lots of power struggles between us bc I was resisting her attempt to mold me into her. I look up to her but I know who I am and I know who she is. It felt like an enmeshed relationship that I resisted resulting in many fights. Enmeshed=poor boundaries.

Now that I am 28 years old and living in another state far away we are getting along and boundaries are better. It took that much. Now I visit and we enjoy each other and both try to get along and not fight. The separation has also forced her to grow as a person so we are getting along better but imagine sill have work to do .

My sidereal fagan karma is in cancer which also means karma with mother in this life.

I only have student loans which will get paid as my husband and are doing well financially and my mom is a cap and has savings and she is still a doctor and makes money. My parents are actually soon going to open a business were she can treat people medically and my dad psychologically. I suppose with this economy anything can happy but I have always been blessed financially and basically got my bachelor's for free. Student loans will be from getting my masters.

It could be referring to self worth even though I have always had good self worth and loved my self but I suppose bc my mom overprotected me this perhaps affected my self confidence and I have been working on that a lot though and is not really an issue anymore. Flower essences have helped me a lot I feel, studying psychology, self awareness and desiring personal growth.

But I must stress that I have never been homeless or lacked love or food in my life. I have never been deprived thankfully. I am really grateful for this. I even had a maid growing up who is like family and still works in the family but for my uncle. She was like a second mom.

Neptune trine venus is supeeeeer acurate. Career wise I do look up to her BIG time bc she deserves it. Super hardworking, creative and quite the initiator. She went through med school and got married while in med school and graduated at 23 from med school holding her first new born in her arms. She then moved to the United States, passed exams she needed to pass and did her residency so she can practice medicine in this country. She has written a book, been on TV, had her own radio talk show with a very popular priest in Miami for a good while. She has organized medical/religious missions funded by University of Miami were she took residents with her as she is doctor but also professor.

I have always been humble since I was little. Since I was little I have disliked very much stuck up people and have never thought I was more important than anyone or that others are better than me. I have always been the type to want to defend who is been picked up. I was the type that wanted to be nice to all the kids in school and once the cool kids saw this no longer wanted to be friends with me but I always had a strong enough character be true to what I thought was right.

Well husband is very cerebral and it affects our sex life, perhaps this aspect is symbolic of THIS but this is the first time in my life that I have been incompatible in reference to sex drive with a guy.

I personally don't have sexual hang ups and feel comfortable talking about sex and right at home when I am intimate with someone. I see sex as something beautiful and natural.

This is aspect seems to be more about who I attract for MARRIAGE material than an inherent trait of mine. It definitely describes the issues I have with my husband but any other guy that I have been with other than him this aspect does not apply at all.

This was overall pretty accurate, impressiveness, and insightful and a lot of fun!!! Thanks for using me as guinea pig .

I replied to different parts so you could see what parts were right on and in what ways it was off somehow so that you can continue perfecting this method which is a pretty cool one may I add.

The ones I got wrong:
Moon Square Neptune 5°13
Saturn Conjunction Pluto 4°25
Sun Square Neptune 1°35


Hmm, methinks I should be applying the houses rulers to the symbolisms of each planet, I wrote them above.

So instead of:

Neptune square Moon (Ruler of 8th House) : YOUR HOME/MOTHER is conflicting with your JOINT FINANCES, DEATH, SEXUALITY.

It would be:

Neptune square Moon (Ruler of 8th House) : YOUR HOME/MOTHER is conflicting with your PSYCHE when it comes to JOINT FINANCES, DEATH, SEXUALITY.

Does this make more sense? I was really surprised that you didn't have some sort of "debt" or loss because of your mother... There were signs here and there of affliction with the energy coming from your 4th house (Saturn). Makes me wonder if I should reinvestigate the 2nd House a little more. We always attach material possessions and assets with the 2nd House. The 2nd House is also about HOW we acquire these things, so perhaps I should focus more on that.

How I initially interpreted this was that you were disillusioned (Neptune) when it comes to your emotional security/psyche (Moon) in regards to 8th House issues. The 8th House rules death, sexuality, secrets, other people’s resources that you benefit from, and inheritance. I've always wondered if the 8th House or the 12th House is the house of Sacrifice. From what I've read, it's the 8th House... which makes sense because its opposite, the 2nd house, is about acquirement. So perhaps it's:

Neptune square Moon (Ruler of 8th House) : YOUR HOME/MOTHER is conflicting with your PSYCHE when it comes to your views on SACRIFICE, JOINT FINANCES & SEXUALITY.

HMMM, now that I'm awake and it's not 3am I have to re-analyze everything with fresh(er) eyes.

Venus square or opposition Pluto:
In an attempt to control the outcome of a love relationship, or the loved one's feelings, you can turn to manipulative games. Even if you do "succeed" at it, there is never a feeling that you've won someone over for who you are, and this feeds a vicious cycle that you should try to avoid getting yourself into. Your feelings are intense, and even extreme, when it comes to love. You might attract intense relationships that have love-hate themes as a result. You are passionate when you love, definitely, but also passionate when you hate. You easily put pressure on your partner, as you expect much loyalty and honesty in your intimate relationships. Be careful not to let your relationships get to a point where your partner is superfluous and you are working through your own inner demons through him or her. Certainly, you will learn much about yourself through your relationships, and you may not always like what you see. You will meet yourself (the "darker" side or inner demons) through your relationships, and it will be critical that you recognize it as your own "material" and not project it onto your partner. Letting go of a relationship can be hard for you to do, especially if Venus is in a fixed sign (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, or Aquarius). http://cafeastrology.com/natal/venusplutoaspects.html.

You have helped me realize that my conflict with her stems from her denying to herself her plutonic side and as a result her plutonic energy is coming off as controlling and manipulative for the purpose of getting her loved ones to think like her and do what she wants. What you are not aware off you are not in control of as Anthony De Mello points out.

I have been telling her since I was little that she is manipulative and she denies it and say she is not. She genuinely doesn't realize that she is this way and is in denial bc she couldn't handle that been true it seems.

She is very uncomfortable around plutonic subjects. I on the other hand am comfortable with my plutonic side, embrace it and use it for good and growth. She fears it and projects it unto others. Its a shame that she didn't try to reconcile the energy between venus/mars opposite pluto and instead repressed it. Her sun in cap which represents her dad I am sure doesn't like Pluto for her daughter and mom been the only child decided to repress pluto is my guess to please dad. Instead she become a doctor like her dad wanted her when deep down she was attracted to psychology and so she married a psychologist instead and lately has been learning about psychology with my dad.

I adore her as she has a huge sweet heart and lately it is becoming increasingly more clear to me how she is a product of both her mother and dad 50/50 which makes me understand why she is the way she is....

Every planet represents the "will" and influence of each sign of the Zodiac. How each planet was assigned to each sign on the Zodiac is primarily based off of mythology then years upon years of research and observation. Each planet serves as the different basic forms of human nature, and Astrology is the study of how those energies manifest in your life. Etc, etc.

House Ruler: You look at the sign that is at the CUSP of your house - what sign that house begins in. The "natural ruler" - or assigned planet - to that sign is the House Ruler.

So this is how you would look at your chart (I use Placidus):

House 1 - Pisces - Ruler is NEPTUNE
House 2 - Aries - Ruler is MARS
House 3 - Taurus - Ruler is VENUS
House 4 - Gemini - Ruler is MERCURY
House 5 - Cancer - Ruler is MOON
House 6 - Leo - Ruler is SUN
House 7 - Virgo - Ruler is MERCURY
House 8 - Libra - Ruler is VENUS
House 9 - Scorpio - Ruler is PLUTO
House 10 - Sagittarius - Ruler is JUPITER
House 11 - Capricorn - Ruler is SATURN
House 12 - Aquarius - Ruler is URANUS

If Neptune is your Chart Ruler (represents PERSONA), then your PERSONA is Neptunian. Neptune is characteristically ethereal, otherworldly, intuitive, inspiration, naive, dreamy, psychic, spiritual, receptive. Neptune represents divine love (higher vibration of love).

Your Chart Ruler Neptune (PERSONA) is aspected by quite a few other rulers in your chart. For example, Neptune is square (afflicted) by Saturn. Saturn is the ruler of your 11th House, the house of FRIENDSHIPS & SOCIETY

Neptune (PERSONA) is square (AFFLICTED) by Saturn (FRIENDSHIPS & SOCIETY). Basically, how you try to come across to others is different than how you treat your friendships and dealings with society.

I know you think you might be an Aries Rising, so I'll do a quite interp. for your Chart Ruler using that:

House 1 - Aries - Mars

PERSONA is Marsian - Raw Energy, Passion, Sexuality. Mars is brave, bold, and abrasive.

Mars is conjunct Mercury. Mercury is the ruler of your 4th House and 7th House. This means your PERSONA is merged with a "Mercurian" flare when it comes to your HOME/MOTHER and RELATIONSHIPS. Mercury is communicative, verbal, and cerebral.

So MARS (RAW ENERGY) + MERCURY (COMMUNICATION).

This makes perfect sense. I'm warm and gentle with my family and my friends. I am cold and hard with others, especially at work.
