As the transit Sun moves into your first house this month, it’s giving you a chance to slow down and reflect before the new year kicks off. You’ll want to focus more on your own needs and feelings rather than what’s going on outside. It’s important to check in with yourself and figure out how you can continue growing as a person.
Since the sun gives us energy and the first house represents our personality, you’ll start to feel more confident in asserting yourself. This can be a good time to put your best foot forward, but be aware that focusing so much on your inner world means you might not notice if others need extra support right now. Working with a team could be tougher, too. If collaborating isn’t flowing, it’s probably better to spend some solo time focusing inward for a bit instead of forcing things.
Now, for some people this transit can cause issues in their relationship – but usually only if there’s other serious astrological stuff going on, too. In any case, now probably isn’t the best time to try working through relationship problems.
What To Do & Avoid
When the Sun transits through your 1st house, it can be a great time to focus on building your self-esteem and confidence. The 1st house represents how you see yourself and your vitality, so having the Sun shining there can help boost these qualities.
During this transit, I recommend focusing your energy inward and doing things that make you feel good and strong. Activities like working out, practicing a hobby you enjoy, spending time in nature, and treating yourself can help build up your self-confidence. You may also want to focus on self-care rituals, getting enough sleep, and eating healthy.
In terms of what to avoid, I would say try not to focus too much on the opinions of others during this time. The 1st house represents your individuality, so focusing on outside validation can actually hinder building true self-esteem. Instead, concentrate on activities that are just for you and make you feel empowered.
This Sun transit through your 1st house is a great time to discover more about what nourishes your spirit and soul. Experiment with different hobbies, styles, and routines that allow your true self to shine. Have fun exploring new ways of expressing your individuality and inner vitality. When the Sun moves on, you’ll likely find that your confidence and self-esteem have received a nice boost to carry you forward.
You really need this chance to express yourself and focus on your needs right now. This month is all about building up your self-confidence and how you present yourself to the world. Don’t feel like you have to deny your own needs just to keep other people happy. Times like these, taking good care of yourself should be the top priority – because if you don’t fill your own cup, you won’t have much left to give others either.
