Large Houses

[Deleted]

Is there a significance to having houses that are particularly large? I know most houses are not the same size but for example my son has from mid capricorn to mid pisces in his 1st house. He has pluto conj asc and by the time Pluto leaves his first house it will be 2056! So wondering the signifcance, would it be similar to having a lot of planets(the rulers of those signs) there?

Interesting topic, vg .

Found this:

House Size In a chart:

I generally use the Placidus House System, which is a Quadrant system, and as you have noticed unless the person is born on the equator, the houses will be different in size.

In extreme Northern or Southern latitudes some houses may span 60 degrees and others may be as small as 15 degrees or less.

All houses deal with a specific area of life. The ruler of the house is the planet that represents the sign on the cusp of the house (or intercepted sign(s)), the ruler of the house is not necessarily located in that specific house and tells a lot about how the individual interprets that area of life depending on the house it is located, the sign it is in, and aspects it makes to otherplanets in the chart.

In this case the house size doesn't matter.Any planets located in a house gives a lense through which the activities of that house are viewed by the individual. Obviously if a house is large there is more chance of having a planet(s) residing within its boundaries. This will place an emphasis on the area for the individual. Any transiting planets will take longer to travel through some houses than others, making the experiences in the larger houses taking a longer time to learn and experience; and the thought is that transiting planets through the smaller houses do their job in a more concentrated way driving the lesson home faster and harder.

All the houses as a whole have to be looked at together rather than individually. The ruler of your 5th house of romance may be Mercury, and Natal Mercury may be in the 11th house conjunct your Sun etc. You find romance and have fun in large groups of friends, you are outgoing and like to communicate with people, this interaction with large groups of the general public brings romantic partners into your sphere to meet etc. The size of your 5th house has nothing to do with any of this. If there are planets in the fifth, this is the type of person and experience you are looking for(the lense you use for judgment) in romance, these are the types of experiences you enjoy. etc.

In my own opinion I think having a large first house is bound to translate to more visibility throughout one's life. The moon's transit through that house will take several days. Possibly that will compel your son to create certain habits, out of an ongoing sense of emotional transparency, or just more heavily emphasized feelings, coming regularly. Music or other creative outlets might emerge from this (?). 

I'm inclined to think people with large first houses are comfortable in dealing with the public.

In contrast...my first house is pretty tiny. It's all in Leo, and I guess I enjoy attention, but overall I'm low visbility, not much of a player on life's stage. No social media, public interactions exhaust me, and often I regret things I've revealed about myself (no planets in the 1st house to anchor confidence there or give a strong sense of rightness, like "this is me, I totally feel it.")  In synastry, people whose suns fall there tend to draw me out, I'm out socializing *with them*...but lack my own mojo in orchestrating events.

Thank you! Sorry in my delayed response, i havent really been around as much lately. Yeah his First house is huge it has his SN/Mars intercepted in aries as well. the 1st/7 house eems to be an important house for him - his venus/NN and mercury are in his 7th. People always say he looks soo different everytime they see him(even if only a couple weeks), he looks the same to me lol but i see him everyday.

My 1st house is relatively small as well, i think about 27 deg, though i also have pluto and saturn there. If you look at my now pics and my teenage pics you would not regconise me either. I changed alot over the years but not just appearance, internally i think have had the biggest changes. I dont like talking too much. My largest houses are my 3rd and 9th - communication seems to be a life lesson for me, and i move alot lol even locally. Though wrt communication, my mercury is also squaring my nodes. Saggitarius is the cusp of my 3rd house, capricorn is intercepted. I often find it difficult to express whats in my head.
