[QUOTE="Osamenor, post: 1127136, member: 46370"] You can get very wonky houses like that if you're at a high latitude, especially close to a solstice. Solar return charts for Geminis, Cancers, Sagittariuses, and Capricorns who live above the 50th - 60th parallel will see that often. If you were born at that latitude, you may also have extreme houses like that in your natal chart. One solution is to use whole sign or equal house. Personally, that's what I'm inclined to do to get more of the meat of the chart. No matter where in the world you are, your life has the same arenas as anyone else. All the houses matter. What I would use those huge first and seventh houses for is a general overview. First house is self, seventh house is others. When those houses are so big that they encompass practically everything, the balance between self (first house) and others (seventh house) is an underlying theme to everything else that's going on. You may be more aware of the action in other areas of your life, which would be seen in the whole sign or equal house houses, but that self/other theme underpins it all. [/QUOTE]
