Anyway, everyone knows that the 1st House is called the House of Self, signifying what someone IS. Therefore, doesn’t it make sense that our personality would primarily be influenced by our 1st House & sometimes the sign of its ruling planet? I know they say your Rising Sign isn’t who you really are, but since the key phrase associated with the First House where our Ascendant begins is “I AM”, it makes sense that the order and strength by which we identify with our Personality Trio would begin first & foremost with our Ascendant. Isn’t that why the ascending degree is the most important factor in the natal chart, because it’s where the entire outline and position of our house placements begin?

For example, the 4th House isn’t the “Mother”, it’s the mother OF The Ascendant. Same way the 6th House isn't responsible for “Diseases’ but rather the diseases OF your Ascendant. In my case, I’m a Cancer Rising, with its ruler, my Sagittarius Moon, placed in the 6th House. The keywords and anatomical correspondences of Virgo & The 6th House are linked to that of Cancer: The Stomach, Appetite, Food Intake, Digestive Tract, Intestines, Belly/Navel, Appendix, The 6-Pack Muscles, etc.

I’m born at 24 weeks, so I had 3 intestinal surgeries in the 2-week period after I was born because my intestines weren’t functioning properly. To this day, over a decade later, not only do I still have digestive system issues, but I have this obsession with everything related to nutrition and my waistline. My diagonal belly-button forms a "link" to my 14cm scar which makes my belly look anaesthetically pleasing because the scar is deeply indented. I am thus hell-bent on being 110lbs and 10% body fat because the scar won't look "normal" until I reach a certain level of leanness. I've also been following the OMAD (One Meal A Day) intermittent fasting eating schedule combined with Keto and eat at the exact same time every single day.

Ascendant Ruler (and Pluto) in the 6th House of Virgo: Work, Physical/Mental/Emotional Health, Hygiene, Diet, Nutrition, Eating Habits, Fitness, Physique, Daily Routine, Schedule, Procedure, Orderliness, Precision, etc.

Sorry for the rant, Mercury in the 3rd House problems. LOL.

Perhaps only because most 'trendy' astrology paints the latter two in unhealthy lights, and I mean they are harder energies to make healthy because of their nature, but certainly not impossible. I relate to them both, but I would say my Aries rising always feels the most upfront.

Possible because I have a chart that is 'signs in their houses' and planets as well, since Moon in Third/Sun in 8th, etc.

But on the flipside,I do tend to shout at the Tv screen, sit on the edge of the seat at home,respond with enthusiasm with others,play "coach" to others and admire entrepreneurship in others(so much).

I misunderstood Asc in Aries to mean I "should" like Aries Moon/Sun.When in actual fact,experience with the latter often leaves me feeling irritated.

Asc in Aries I had the most trouble with.I have known Moon and Sun in Aries and what permeates a lot is their childlike nature which(at worst) can show immaturity.

I also have Juno in Aries conj Asc.I don't know if that adds a more sensitive approach to Aries?

Mars(Lib) & I agree with your more "open" perspective. Libr Mars IS me to the "t". And when I read Asc in Libra the first time, I kept on asking Mom if she meant "am" or "pm" for my time of birth as I related to it quite a bit.

Not me. I've always related the most to my Cancer Sun and Pisces Moon over Aries Ascendant. I also have Mars in the 1st house, but it's in Taurus, so it's more of a chill Mars. Additionally, most of my chart is filled with water signs and water houses and I am void of any fire besides my Ascendant and 1st house Mars. Plus, my Ascendant only has square aspects, both to my Sun and Venus.

I feel like I'm trying to become more like my Ascendant as I age. I'm definitely a more subdued Aries Ascendant than the typical, but there are certain traits that stick out where you'd be able to tell, like how I'm very passionate and driven about what I most want in life and also share certain physical characteristics like having a swift walk with brisk movements and a lean, athletic body type with more angular facial features.
