Moon in the 1st House directs the planet's energy toward your sense of self. The house tells you where the planet expresses itself; how it does so depends on the sign it occupies.
How the Moon works in the 1st house
You're an observer, good at watching the world and the people in it, and you're sensitive and responsive to others. Your past means a great deal to you, especially the place where you grew up and the people, circumstances, and events of your childhood. You'll remember a happy childhood with nostalgia; childhood upheavals, on the other hand, leave an indelible mark on your soul.
You're prone to mood swings and have a rich emotional life, strong intuition, and a tendency to worry. You may avoid standing out or being in the public eye and feel quite comfortable in the background.
The Moon gives you soft features and a relatively short stature, but you have much more stamina than your appearance suggests.
What the 1st house governs
The 1st house in your birth chart describes your personality: your character, temperament, and basic pattern of behavior. It reveals how you present yourself and how others see you. The first house is considered the most important of all the houses, the lens through which the rest of the birth chart should be viewed.
What the Moon represents
The Moon's zodiac sign in your birth chart governs your emotions, intuition, and subconscious. The Moon represents your feminine side, your receptivity, and your capacity for empathy: the ability to feel with other people and sense what they're going through.
