In itself, a thing is a thing for us in different ways, but never in its true form. The dispositor of the 1st house is in detriment. Here, perception is obviously objective, but often socially conditioned; in general, the personality bears a strong imprint of social views, relationships, and ways of perception. In self-esteem, the aesthetic moment is important—the person wants to see themselves as beautiful, feels harmony with the surrounding world and their inner state, which, however, is largely perceived mentally through rationalizations. Yet, strong mental self-deceptions are characteristic. This is a difficult position, especially when the 1st house is afflicted, as karmically, the person is inclined to perceive disharmony, imbalance, and its immediate elimination, restoring justice—first, they must learn to see the imbalance correctly, master the aesthetics of their egregore and its worldview, then find and establish their inner balance, and only then influence the world. This is difficult, and most importantly, it is not expressed in socially accepted concepts, so most often, the person engages with the external world guided by socially imposed ethics and aesthetics, which may be poorly aligned with their deep inner ideas on these matters, with the opinion of their higher karmic egregore, leading to frustration in their place, but why—this they cannot decisively understand or are satisfied with false rationalizations. Directed searches for truth will point to enemies (7th house sign Aries), from whom one should learn sincerity and decisiveness.

{The Ascendant, or 1st house, is the sector of space (sign) that was directly above the eastern part of the horizon at the moment of a person’s birth. The Ascendant provides much information about a person’s appearance and behavioral traits. In many respects, the Ascendant has a greater influence than the signs in which the Sun or Moon were located at the time of birth. Knowing the Ascendant gives much preliminary information about the character of the entire horoscope and the general makeup of a person’s character. This serves as a hint that a person born with this Ascendant is interested in philosophical ideas and has high qualifications in the commercial field, where participation in buying and selling is required, where one must give and take wisely. They are moderate in their tastes and idealistic. Libra is a mutable sign, governed by Venus. Such people travel and seek truth, beauty, and love in life. This is a positive and strong sign that has given history some very influential individuals. Since Libra is the 7th sign of the Zodiac, marriage partners and companions provide significant assistance to people of the “scales.” With a religious direction of mind, a kind heart, and a smiling face, active, intelligent people of the “scales” can make good judges or arbitrators. They are frank, fair, but may insist too much on the correctness of their opinion. Usually, they are tall, thin, with a light complexion. They help their relatives and love fun and entertainment. They enjoy living in comfort, love walks or travel, and enjoy pleasant excitement and thrills; they are more sensual than they think. These people are sincere, honest, but may be prone to daydreaming and building castles in the air. They are good judges of human nature. They dislike living alone, skilled in trade. When entering spiritual circles, they often take on a second, spiritual name. These are active and ambitious people who bring tangible benefits to all of humanity in the philosophical sphere or in commerce.

LIBRA – heightened aesthetic criteria for perceiving the surrounding world. Beauty and harmony are essential qualities of life. When placed in a rough, disharmonious environment, the person suffers and loses their footing. Behavior is always socially conditioned, within the bounds of propriety. Subconsciously, the person seeks approval and admiration from others. Contacts are always elite.

Those with an Ascendant in Libra may say they were born under the sign of Libra, as this sign was rising above the horizon at the moment of birth. Harmony in the surrounding world is a harmonious reflection of life. They usually express their personality through collaboration with others. Their actions create an impression of beauty and grace combined with discipline, rigor, and a sense of justice. Their finest quality is the ability to put themselves in another’s position and understand their point of view. They dislike solitude because they feel lost and abandoned to their own devices. Heightened sensitivity, mobility, refinement, harmony, and sociability define their elevated lifestyle. Love of art and good manners shape their refined way of life. Vanity, conceit, an exaggerated sense of self-importance, fear of work, and lack of independence are their potential pitfalls. Gains and social advancement often come at the expense of others. You are a born diplomat: prudent, tolerant, fair, always ready to listen to different views and consider a matter from another perspective. Even if you strongly disagree with someone, you are more likely to seek points of similarity and agreement rather than emphasize differences. You often avoid extremes and one-sidedness in anything. You have a strong desire for harmonious, pleasant relationships; you embody the spirit of cooperation, compromise, friendship, and justice. You greatly wish to be loved, and due to your need for approval and recognition, you are easily influenced by others’ opinions, especially in youth. You are so eager to please that you often neglect your own interests and feelings to avoid offending others. Sometimes, your politeness is mistaken for far-reaching schemes or perceived as a sign of weak character. Your need for harmony extends to your physical environment and your self-expression. You appreciate beauty and have a natural sense of balance, symmetry, and proportion. In all matters, you display good taste and a sense of style, from the arrangement of your home to the choice of clothing—everything must be aesthetically pleasing rather than merely functional or utilitarian. You also feel that relationships are an art form, one that particularly interests you, and you usually have extensive experience in this area due to your tact and keen understanding of others. Marriage holds special significance for you, so it is extremely important to find the right person with whom you could spend your life. You are naturally half of a well-bonded couple—you are not an independent loner. Having a partner increases your self-confidence. However, you tend to become excessively dependent on your partner to the point where you may not be perceived as an independent individual outside the relationship. For you, the challenge is to find a balance between being yourself and merging with another person. Others see you as accommodating, gentle, harmonious, and altogether wonderful. This is a kind of mask you present to the world, though for you it may be much more. You are characterized by personal charm and restraint, lacking aggression. Your motto could be “better to have many friends than many enemies,” and you approach everything from the standpoint of friendship, cooperation, and not from positions of force, conquest, or coercion.
