Saturn in the 1st House: Your personal manner is austere and dignified but you need to be more outgoing and develop a sense of humor. You're aristocratic, hard-working, patient, serious-minded and shy. You have a feeling of personal inadequacy that spurs you to great achievements. You're willing to accept responsibility and work long and hard to achieve prominence based on merit, but you must learn to love and cooperate before you succeed. You have good reasoning ability and a sense of justice and you don't act or speak without a definite purpose. If well aspected, you're a loyal friend who's able to offer practical advice when it's most needed, but if afflicted, frustration manifests as scheming and a desire to get even. You're often born mature and get younger as you grow older. If afflicted, limitations and hardships in your childhood create many obstacles to overcome before you achieve freedom, independence and self-sufficiency. If heavily afflicted, suffering in early life results in selfish, materialistic ambition and an attitude of mistrust that makes you look out for yourself before all others. This mistrust causes you to build an emotional wall, further alienating others, and bringing loneliness and more mistrust in an unending cycle. If afflicted, you may suffer from physical handicaps or a disability.

Your financial matters are orderly and sensible, but if afflicted, you may be materialistic, possessive and selfish. You may gain financially through your father, employer or those in authority. You're able to attract money, but unless you learn a lesson in values, you're apt to lose it as fast as it comes in.
