Clothes and the way we dress are our visiting card, by which we present ourselves to the world. The fashion industry occupies such a large proportion of today's world that it wouldn’t sound exaggerated if I say that it is the leading sector in the world economy. Since ancient times, clothes, the special elements we call accessories today, have always been a sign of distinction. Our personal style of dressing reveals a lot about who we are, so it is no coincidence that it is precisely the clothes and the way we dress that are the things we are welcomed by. Surely the history of fashion can easily compete with the history of the world, as with the various historical eras, the way we dress has inevitably changed as well.

In today's article I will let you know how the individual horoscope reveals what our attitude to fashion is, what our style of dressing is, whether we are vain and to what extent. For better or worse, clothing is very important in our social and public life. Everyone knows that it is desirable for one to comply with the place and the occasion which he or she is going to. This is an unwritten social law. There are people who easily meet the dress code rules. But there are also people for whom this is a real challenge.

In the horoscope, the Ascendant is our front door to the community. Every time we interact with someone, we come in through this door. The Ascendant in the horoscope defines "Who am I when I am in contact with others? What is the first impression I make on people? What is my behaviour in society?". During the first contact, everybody sees us through the filter of the Ascendant.

The second house in the horoscope, which stands close to the Ascendant, shows us what resources and tools are available to us and which of them we use to sustain our life, body, and not least our external view, our external image. Clothing is also allocated to this resource, the first purpose of which is to protect our body. And in a broader sense, the second house in the horoscope shows what type of clothing we prefer, what our style of dressing is, how we follow fashion trends and to what extent we are subject to vanity.

Venus in astrology essentially defines what we like, in what way we make ourselves attractive and what attracts us in others respectively. In general, this is art, beauty, beautiful things, design and of course fashion. Since Venus is the epitome of a woman in her beautiful and seductive appearance, it is understandable why the fashion industry is mostly for women and they are its largest consumers.

Thus, the second house of the horoscope and Venus are the main factors by which we can understand what our attitude to fashion is, what is our style of dressing, whether we are vain and to what extent. I will give a brief description of each sign in the ascendant, in which I will indicate where the second house falls and what information it gives us. It is important to note that every house in the specific horoscope has a planet which rules it and this planet may be located in a different zodiac sign. I will indicate which this planet is, and if you know in which sign it falls, this will give you further information.

For those who are more deeply interested, I will give a small example by way of illustration. On the picture, the Ascendant is in the sign Pisces, and the second house of the horoscope falls in the sign Aries. The planet which rules Aries is Mars, falling in the sign Capricorn. Venus is in the sign Leo. Therefore, the conclusions will be made first by the sign Aries and Venus in Leo. Mars will provide additional nuances.

The specific example gives us information that this person is always in step with the latest fashion trends - the sign Aries is keen on being the first and always with something new. Venus shows that the clothes must be luxurious, designer, single items - such as those meant for selected and special people. Mars in Capricorn will highlight the demand for class, a timeless style, quality and high price. Somewhat it will bring a stricter silhouette to the "pompous" Venus in Leo, it will clear the abundance of flamboyant elements in clothing.

Try to make this combination using the descriptions which I will give. Start with the information about the sign in the Ascendant. I have added information about which planets to make a combination with.

Ascendant in the sign Aries

The second house falls within the sign Taurus and is ruled by Venus. For you the significance of Venus is doubly underlined and this makes you fond of everything which brings comfort, luxury and convenience. You are one of the most passionate supporters of the idea that clothing is essential in life. You mostly like the expensive and well tailored garment that fits you perfectly. Of course, if possible, you prefer buying designer clothes profitably (e.g. in a sale). You don't focus on fashion trends blindly. On the contrary - you mostly prefer classic clothes because you're not one of those people who would buy clothes which they will wear only a few times. Surely your wardrobe contains clothes of the type "this is always fashionable." You build your style of dressing over the years, and you do not like sudden changes in it and you steadily follow it. You are quite vain, because for you, the outfit is a symbol not only of comfort and pleasure, but also of a way to show prestige. Read information about the sign in which Venus falls. This will give you additional details.

Ascendant in the sign Taurus

The second house falls within the sign Gemini and is ruled by Mercury. You tend to like the youthfully careless way of dressing, but this does not make you look inartistic in any way. Mercury is the planet of aesthetics. Even if you are not dressed in classy and expensive clothes, you manage to look stylish. For you, it is characteristic that the appearance of negligence suits you. You are not interested in fashion trends and you will rarely be spotted staring at shop windows. You prefer clothes which are simple, but you inevitably combine them in a dualistic manner. For example, you can combine clothes which allow dualism of style - both casual and formal. Your wardrobe is not usually large, so that you can easily change it entirely. Vanity is unknown to you. You think that it is for those who do not have anything else to show but clothes. Read about the sign in which Mercury and Venus fall. This will give you additional details.

Ascendant in the sign Gemini

The second house falls within the sign Cancer and is ruled by the Moon. For you it is typical that you love collecting all kinds of clothes. Your style of dressing depends very much on the mood you are in and this makes you different every day. Therefore, you need clothes to fit any mood. By the colours and your style of dressing, it can be easily recognized what emotional wave you are in. You like tradition and it can be said that you do not tend to fall for fashion trends, unless they revive an old and well-forgotten traditional clothing (such as you will surely have somewhere in your wardrobe). Women mostly like clothes which emphasize their femininity and men like clothes that emphasize their masculinity. You happen to become strongly attached to some clothes, but for a short period, you intensively wear them, then you freeze them deeply into your wardrobe. Your attitude towards vanity also changes according to your mood. Read about the sign in which Venus and the Moon fall. This will give you additional details.

Ascendant in the sign Cancer

The second house falls within the sign Leo and is ruled by the Sun. You're probably the biggest fans of rare clothes, such as those which are made in single pieces, especially designer ones. This makes you the biggest users of tailoring services by client order and clothing made especially for you. You like accumulating clothes, even if they are not necessary. To have many clothes for you is a symbol of security, not that much a symbol of superiority or prestige. Even in everyday life you do not allow yourselves to be "casually" dressed, i.e. you always bring a chic and extravagant touch to your appearance. You are extraordinary fans of all kinds of accessories as well, which are mandatory for your style. You like to follow fashion trends not for another reason, but because when you keep up with them, you don't feel like an island. Read about the sign in which Venus and the Sun fall. This will give you additional details.

Ascendant in the sign Leo

The second house falls within the sign Virgo and is ruled by Mercury. For you it is typical that you never allow yourself to go out looking untidy, even when you are going to the store. Even at house, you rarely allow yourselves to look "negligent". You try to always look neat, clean and elegant, even in the most ordinary goings out. Aesthetic appearance is a priority for you and you elaborate it to the last detail. You are not fans of fashion trends, even though you like to experiment with some things, but always combined with something classic. You have a very clean style of dress, you like simple clothes, but a mandatory requirement is they be exquisite. For you, bright and large items of clothing are not characteristic. "Beautiful simplicity" is your motto. You are acceptably vain and you don’t allow yourselves to appear negligent in front of anyone. Read about the sign in which Mercury and Venus fall. This will give you additional details.

Ascendant in the sign Virgo

The second house falls within the sign Libra and is ruled by Venus. To you the significance of Venus is doubly underlined which makes you fond of anything that brings comfort, beauty and harmony. You are one of the most sophisticated connoisseurs of all things fashionable, stylish and beautiful. You have a very strong need to look like you have come off a magazine cover. Your style is very balanced, never meretricious. No elements of tastelessness or "cheapness." Even if they are not very expensive, the clothes you wear never look "cheap". Your clothing inevitably has an element of implied sexuality, especially for women. You are always interested in fashion trends, they are highly nutritious "food" for you, even if you do not necessarily test them on yourselves. You are extremely vain, since clothing and appearance for you are one of the most valuable things when you present yourselves to the world. Read about the sign in which Venus falls. This will give you additional details.

Ascendant in the sign Libra

The second house falls within the sign Scorpio and is ruled by Pluto. I will write something unusual, since the notion of the sign Libra is always associated with beauty, harmony and grace. Sometimes it is this way, but not always. Scorpio in the second house indicates walking between extremes. You always have some very strange elements in your style of dressing. Usually there is something very bold in your outfit and you love it to bring a deep sexual element. Women rarely have feminine elements bearing softness and tenderness. You bet more on challenging sexuality. Men often wear very tight clothes, highlighting their male strength in a sexual sense. In both sexes, there is a desire to challenge with their clothing. Dark glasses are your trademark in all seasons, they are almost always a piece of your outfit. You do not blindly follow fashion trends, but you do not miss the chance to take everything which is sexually charged from them. You are not vain in the sense that you will spend hours in front of the mirror. Vanity for you stops at the point in which you draw attention to yourselves and therefore you often insert into your style an element, of so-called "bad taste". It may be bad, but the effect is achieved. Read about the sign in which Venus and Pluto fall. This will give you additional details.

Ascendant in the sign Scorpio

The second house falls within the sign Sagittarius and is ruled by Jupiter. The style of dressing, falling for fashion trends and vanity are unfamiliar to you. You prefer full comfort and there are piles of clothes thrown in your closet which are "multifunctional" in style. It is a little difficult to talk about a style of dressing, because you like to experiment with your appearance and you try everything. You are not one of those people for whom the garment is more important than the person who wears it. Therefore you think that clothing should be comfortable, decent and appropriate for the occasion (as far as it is possible for you) and thus the question is settled. Given that you do not like your personality to be "laid bare" with ease, you do not like to attract attention, you prefer always to dress in a different way, sometimes you do not even think about what and how to combine - you're still dressed, you're not naked. Read about the sign in which Venus and Jupiter fall. This will give you additional details.

Ascendant in the sign Sagittarius

The second house falls within the sign Capricorn and is ruled by Saturn. You are very careful about your appearance. You build a simple style of dressing, which includes clothing of high quality, durability and reliability. You prefer the strict style of dressing, with the priority of dark and no bright colours. You don’t like going shopping every season and throwing away extra money for clothing. You follow the English saying " I'm not rich enough to afford cheap things." You choose your clothes carefully and pick those which have stood the test of time, which are of sufficient quality and always cause respect. Falling for fashion trends is unknown to you and your vanity is in decent and healthy levels - enough to look appropriate for the occasion. And usually "the appropriate" is almost one and the same. Read about the sign in which Venus and Saturn fall. This will give you additional details.

Ascendant in the sign Capricorn

The second house falls within the sign Aquarius and is ruled by Uranus. "Hi, Fashion, come to show you something." It is typical for you that you show a very personal style and you are capable of  inspiring others around you to follow it as well. Even for a circle of people, you are the ones who create fashion, and do not follow it. You strive in every way to have a unique style of dressing, which cannot be found anywhere else. If you are invited to a party and the invitation mentions "an elegant dress code", you can wear jeans and combine them with an elegant top. This is a guarantee that you will be with a unique outfit which will be seen, never mind it could be frowned upon. Bad publicity is better than none. Your vanity is within your desire to look different and to get noticed. Read about the sign in which Venus and Uranus fall. This will give you additional details.

Ascendant in the sign Aquarius

The second house falls within the sign Pisces and is ruled by Neptune. For you it is typical that you pay extremely close attention to fashion and current trends. Not due to another reason, but because it is a wonderful world where fantasy and beauty have no boundaries. You like to see yourselves in different styles and to transform yourself. By clothes you dip into different worlds every day. So you love shopping, because this way you buy yourselves dreams and ignite your imagination. Your style of dressing is "soft, delicate" and you always create a sense of calmness in people, regardless of whether you're dressed in a strictly classical or a casual way. You show vanity in a moderate extent, as far as you can access the image you want to be seen in. You love visiting different places where you can present your various fashion visions. Read about the sign in which Venus and Neptune fall. This will give you additional details.

Ascendant in the sign Pisces

The second house falls within the sign Aries and is ruled by Mars. You are very zealous followers of all things modern and you like to stand out with your clothes, to be the first of the first. You do not take into consideration whether something suits you physically, it is important to be fashionable. You do not like it when someone is ahead of you and buys the most fashionable clothes before you. You jump quickly from style to style, because it is terribly boring and annoying for you to stick with the same manner of dressing for more than a year. You are good customers for all stores since you shop with vigour (as long as your finances allow it). Vanity is very characteristic for you, especially when it comes to who will be the first to put on clothes from the freshest fashion collections. You are one of those people whose self-esteem depends strongly on your ability to always be up to date with fashion. Read about the sign in which Venus and Mars fall. This will give you additional details.
