What I mean by Temporary and permanent is, is the mask like, glued to your face or does it go away once you get close enough?For example, the asc represents the appearance, so that part would be permanent right?
Then, what about the personality, planets in the first house are often considered a major part of the personality. So much that they may actually "blind" the person because they focus so much energy on that one planet, since it's RIGHT THERE in the first house, in front of all other planets.
If so, how is the ascendant JUST a mask?
Is it just the part that comes out when first met, or like the "base" of the personality. The setting, where all the aspects and planets do their own thing.
Or like aspects, in order for planets in the first house to be considered important, does the planet need to be reinforced by other placements?
