She is wondering if there was a special meaning in a natal house chart that starts exactly with Aries at 1 degree?
House 1 starts as 1 degree Aries-
( just like the natural houses and rulership would fall, expect this is the house position with the true birth time)
she mentioned it was the first time she saw it, and thought it would have a special meaning.

thank you all-
S.

any thoughts?

With being a step beyond the 1st degree, you entered the energetics of 2nd degree's emphasis on gaining the knowledge available.

The following quote from article talks about 'planets', and if you are able to think on how this can be applied, you can take what he says and energetically think of your own chart.

You're talking about your house cusps.
Those discuss the various issues of life,
and can describe what you went through during the phases in your growing up years... etc.

We know that EACH house, and each point (ASC Desc, MC IC) draws your focus to various seasons of experiences during your birthday year.

The 12 Zodiac signs stands for the energy of certain parts of the Natural Seasons of the year. {Based on Northern Hemisphere}
(Do a search to find what these relate to-- eg, Aries 0+degrees transitions us out of winter into the Spring period; Cancer 0+degrees takes us from Spring into the Summer Season; Libra 0+degrees is the start of the Fall Season, Harvesting time, preparation for Winter; Capricorn 0-degrees is the start of Winter, and the degree where diminishing daytime hours hold still with the Sun at lowest point on horizon, begins its increasing the hours of daylight--- Solstice. In Cancer 0+ we have equal days and equal nights. Equinox. ---- You can find some really nice writings MADE on the transitions from zodiac sign to sign, and quarter-year marks to quarter aries, cancer, libra, capricorn mark the quarter-year changes.)

"In the natal chart, planets or points at 0° of a sign take a stance that either indulges in (or embraces) the very pure, undiluted nature of the sign.
There’s a fresh, unstudied quality to a planet at this degree.
. .

Some of the most familiar, prima facie traits linked to that sign will be obvious in the person’s nature,
but the sign’s true essence and the challenges the planet must face and embrace on its journey
are just being discovered and are yet to be mastered.
. .
Simply put,
there’s a new language to learn
and much work to be done.
Embarking on this voyage, the planet at 0° appears highly eager to encounter that which it will become.

SABIAN SYMBOLS
Some people like to consult the oracle called Sabian symbols, to pour deeper into the meanings of EACH degree.
By the way--- you round UP to next degree.
If the degree is 1.23 of Aries, then look for the Sabian describing 2+ degrees.
These are your little classrooms,
with a description of the settings,
and the lessons found in each room.
