Venus in House 1
Venus represents what you love, what gives you pleasure and the things you value. House 1 is the house of your own life: the body, your general health, your temperament and the way you present yourself and set things in motion. It's the starting point for everything in the chart — where "you" stand.
In the first house — of life, of the body and of the person himself — Venus is in an angle, in full accidental dignity, where it acts with all its strength upon the whole person. It marks the temperament and the appearance: it imprints its grace upon the body, gives pleasing features, a mild bearing and an affable manner that captivates at first sight. It inclines the nature to pleasure, to concord and to the love of beautiful things, and makes of the person a being given to harmony, to gentle dealing and to the enjoyment of life. The star of sweetness, set upon the body and the vitality, tinges the whole presence with charm and mildness, and disposes the person to seek what pleases and to flee from conflict. The character tends to the sociable, the neat, the lover of festivity and ornament. How much this strength weighs, however, and to which side it bends, depends on the state in which the star is found here.
