The Importance of the 1st House in Kundali Matching

Kundali Matching is a vast and extensive process that deals with a significant number of areas.
Contrary to popular misinformed belief, it does not dwell around superstitions. Kundali matching
makes the match only after an extensive study of each planet’s present in the birth chart and their
specific positions. There are 12 houses in one’s horoscopes and each house has a variety of
significance for every different planet. Each house represents certain specific characteristics and
deals with significant areas of life. As we all know, every planet has its meanings too. Thus,
when placed in different houses, the powers of the house plus the powers of the planet are
blended into one to come up with a final significance that impacts the native’s life. This article
will talk about the significance of the first house and the role of each planet in this house.


Significance of the 1st House


The first house is called the house of the self and is the ascendant house in kundali matching. It is
calculated through the degree of the sun on the eastern horizon at the specific time and place of
birth. The first house in one’s kundali is considered to be one of the most important houses as it
marks the beginning of the life of an individual. The zodiac sign belonging to the first house is
Aries and the associated planet is the Sun. This house answers the questions of who you are and
what you will be in life. It concerns itself with one’s character, temperament, physical
appearance, strengths, weaknesses, self-identity, health, and physical constitution. A lot about
one’s inner and outer self can be deciphered by studying the position of the 1st house in the birth
chart. Let’s look at how the planets placed in the first house create impacts on the native’s life.
