I am not familiar with Mac OS X.
There is a lot of information on the web.
For example (warning: URLs might wrap):

https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-12034
https://websitebeaver.com/set-up-localhost-on-macos-high-sierra-apache-mysql-and-php-7-with-sslhttps
https://coolestguidesontheplanet.com/set-up-virtual-hosts-in-apache-on-macos-high-sierra-10-13/
https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/95660/how-to-fix-403-in-mac-os-x-built-in-apache

I think the last two discusses the problem you have.

Search for 
	OS X High Sierra Apache configuration
in yoyr favourite search engine to find many more.

Hope this helps.
