Lagna in Leo 18°16'25"
Leo in the Ascendant bestows a regal appearance, as if the life force is vibrating from every part of your body. You have a broad face with strong bones and beautiful and expressive eyes. You may be a possessive parent, egotistical and selfish in temperament, and a braggart. You are excessively libidinous, but not necessarily promiscuous. You are not satisfied with the material heights you attains and are always aspiring towards greater intellect, greater wealth, greater status, and greater respectability. Often you think you have achieved more than you really have; nevertheless, you are never satisfied, for you think you deserve more than you have received. You always strive to reach the top of the mountain.
You are basically materialistic, but like to assume that you are spiritually highly evolved. Involvement in work is intense and whole-hearted. You may be seen working adroitly on the subtle problems of life, whether related to physical sciences, psychology, or to concrete and technological problems in engineering, industry or economics. It is not the subject matter that is significant: Your complete involvement in whatever you undertake is of supreme importance to you. In that pursuit, your engagement of effort is total.
There is a suddenness in your actions, which gives you an element of surprise and unpredictability. However involved you may seem in a pursuit or relationship, you can suddenly end it. You are loyal friends, but that friendship can end suddenly. To some people, you may seem ungrateful. The world exists only for your convenience and the satisfaction of your desires. In your social relationships, contradiction and self-aggrandizement seem to predominate.
You may find married life difficult. Your spouse is very calculating and self centered, which are some of Leo's traits as well. Compatibility becomes difficult. In such circumstances, you often act in a clandestine manner, concealing certain aspects of your life. You do not trust others; equal partnership is not a common factor in your life. This placement gives rise to wealth in mutual combination.
The Sun is Lord of the Ascendant, Mercury Lord of wealth and Mars is of course Yoga Karaka. Thus all the three planets have acquired some power or other to do good. It will be seen that the Sun, Mercury and Mars play an important role in case of persons born under Leo Ascendant, while other planets will be able to do some good under certain special conditions.
One born in this Ascendant will be fond of eating meat and enjoying worldly enjoyments, will earn wealth and honor through the government, will be bereft of religion, dutiful in family affairs, hold a high rank of office, be majestic, strong, bold, be a miser, will trouble others, will wander in hills and forests and speak sparingly, be irascible, firm in friendship, careless, inaccessible (or inviolable), will destroy his enemies, have famous sons, honor the virtuous, will be rich through agriculture etc., be interested in business and will spend heavily on prostitutes and dancers. Spouse will suffer dental diseases.,
Lagna in Lunar Mansion '11 Purva Phalguni-2'
The Star ruling your Ascendant or Moon is Purva Phalguni.
Physical features: you have an attractive personality, and a stout body with mixed color. Frequent sweating, and a snubbed nose are indicated. Character and general events: you like full freedom. It is seen that you become famous in one field or another. However, your mind may be full of disturbances over one or the other matter. You have inherent intuitive powers to know the problems of other people. Hence, even before the help is requested for, you extend a helping hand to the needy. You will possess sweet speech and are fond of traveling.
Education, sources of earning/profession: you choose not to be a slave to anyone. Because of this quality, it is quite often noticed that you will not take up a job which involves subordination in its true meaning. There is a drawback in you that cannot be a 'yes master' even to your boss in the case of employment. You are not in a position to derive much benefit from your superiors. You want to be sincere in all the work you undertake. Neither can you be a party to any illegal activities nor have the power of tolerance to see such activities. This condition of your mind may drag you into several complications in life, but you are ready to face such problems. You do not like to get any benefit at the cost of others. You may have several hidden enemies. Hence, such enemies stand as a main obstacle in your progress. However, you are able to subdue such enemies and attain much success in all the work you undertake. You enjoy power. You give preference to position and authority rather than money.
You pursue a righteous path of progress and may devote your valuable time for such a cause. Even though you are able and intelligent you cannot necessarily reach the place of your dreams. It does not mean though that you will not rise in life. In the employment field, you will frequently change your job, particularly at the age of 22, 27, 30, 32,37 and 44 years. You will attain the requisite position only after your 45th year of age. While you do not want others' money you may be frequently in trouble in the financial matters because of others. In other words, borrowers may not return the money to you. In spite of all the adverse positions mentioned above you will, after your 45th year of age, reach a good position where power and authority vests in you. In the business field you can shine well.
Family life: your married life will be happy. You will have a good spouse and children and also derive much happiness from them. In some cases it has been noticed that you may not marry the person of your choice. You will lead a life away from your birthplace and other family members.
Health: your health will generally be good. However, you may be prone to dental disease or digestive disorders. Even so, no permanent nature of disease is noticed.

Your spiritual interested are accentuated. You suffer from eye troubles or problems in the navel region.
Sun in 8th House
In general, the Sun in this house makes you lean and thin, mentally unusual, disliked and abandoned by relations. But if the zodiacal sign is supportive, the solar influence here may lead to much interest in spirituality or the process of initiation.
The Sun of the 8th house is mostly malefic, as it is posited in a bad house. This house denotes wills, legacies, chronic diseases, loss of wealth, extravagance, suits and quarrels, death, co-workers and occult matters. Planets occupying this house incline to an interest in occult science; if without a planet, life runs on conventional lines till the ruler receives strong aspects. You are a crafty impostor and lewd. Life is hard and difficult.
You travel widely and associate with low class persons, eat unscrupulously, squander away wealth or loose it by theft. Secret vice brings infectious diseases and poor health. You can neither make others' life happy, nor, your own. Possibility of sudden or early death is indicated.
You are handsome, but indolent, prodigal, spend-thrifty, and suffer from piles, are adulterous, travel wide and are quarrelsome. Absence of offspring, weak sight, wealth, violence, sickness and hard work are indicated. You are neither rich nor happy, and might suffer the loss of some dear one. Generally you are less wise, short-tempered and of poor mental and physical health. These are the disqualifications for a successful and happy life. You are fickle-minded but generous, and ready to serve the wise and learned. You tend to be characterless, prudent, talkative, long-lived and serve the low caste, get little happiness from sons, suffer from eye troubles and get a wound or boil on the head during the 10th year.
Note: With the Sun in the 8th house, you will always undergo miseries, will establish relationships with persons of foreign origin, will lose wealth in thefts, will face severe and secretive dangers, will have a beautiful physique akin to that of (waxing) moon, will incur financial danger from all sides, have a weak sight and physical distress, will contact incurable venereal diseases, will always fight with others, will have few friends and some wealth, will not be steady in the career and only have limited progeny, but be a skillful astrologer.

Moon in 5th House
This placement is basically very good. It makes you a tranquil and balanced person at your basis. You will be content, and blessed with general happiness from having received all the necessities of life. This Moon gives you interest in getting your life together more so than making a novel contribution to the society at large. It gives you interest in things like poetry, chemistry, medicine and social work.

Possible avenues of gain indicated are Moon-related such as diamonds, land, trade, money lending, and many other sources.

Moon in Lunar Mansion '20 Purva Ashadha-1'
The Star ruling your Ascendant or Moon is Purva Ashadha.
You will have a lean and tall body. Your teeth will be very beautiful, ears long, eyes bright, waist narrow and arms long. In other words you have good attractive physical features. Your intelligence is exemplary, but there is a tendency to jump to conclusions. No one can defeat you in arguments. You have extraordinary convincing power. You will not, under any circumstance, submit to others, whether you are right or wrong. On the one side you can give a lot of advice, but you cannot hear advice from others. While you pretend you to be courageous you cannot reach that state unless forced either by circumstances or by persons to show the requisite courage. In decision making you are lacking. You find it difficult to make a decision even on small matters. Once aroused by instigation or argument you make decisions without thinking of the pros and cons of such actions and you stick to that decision till the end. Even if you are completely wrong, nobody can change your decision. Such is your obstinate character. You like to do a lot of things for others for nothing in return, but you will be subjected to a lot of criticism. You derive maximum benefit from unknown persons. You cannot keep any permanent relationship with anybody. If you can work with a particular aim with full sincerity you can reach the top of life. You hate external show. You are God-fearing, honest, humble and far from hypocrisy. You can never think of doing anything which will disturb the progress of others. You will be highly religious and always interested in religious acts. You are a good collector of antiques. You may also take interest in writing poetry.
Even though you can shine in almost all fields, you are particularly fit for a doctor's profession or fine arts. You are advised not to venture for any business unless you have dependable employees or managers. You will be attracted to the studies of occult philosophy and sciences. Up to 32 years of age will be a period of trial and error. Thereafter you slowly start climbing the ladder of success. Between 32 and 50 years of age will be very good. You cannot enjoy any benefit from your parents. However, you will be lucky to have benefits from siblings, particularly from brothers. You will be spending most of your life in a foreign land.
Your married life will be more or less happy, but marriage may be delayed. In some cases, it has been noticed that marriage takes place in a most competitive way. You are more inclined towards your spouse and in-laws. Even then, there will be frequent disharmony between you. At last, you find peace in the company of your spouse. You will be lucky to have talented and respectful children, who will bring name and fame to your family. There may be at most two children.
While your outward appearance is extremely good, your internal constitution may not be good, and your health may be weak. It is quite often noticed that you are prone to a particular incurable disease. Still you will not care for your health. You are prone to severe breathing trouble, bronchitis etc. Even in the state of critical illness you will not hesitate to jump into work which you feel should be completed. You may face problems with your thighs. You must take care about your lungs as you are liable to suffer from pneumatic pains.
You may affect the mother's health or longevity.
Mars in Aries 17°27'22"

Splendorous, truthful, valorous, a leader, fond of war, competitive, adventurous and bold, an army chief, head of a group, delighted, charitable, endowed with necessary supplies for endeavors and having many mates.
Mars in Aries with Leo ascendent
You are strongly attached to physical existence and dedicated to conventional religion. You will have a narrow sectarian religious philosophy, and attachment to family and friends will have to be overcome before you set foot on the spiritual path.
Mars in 9th House
Mars interests you in the spiritualization process, which takes you through difficult and varying sets of experiences depending on your special temperament and past Karma. You may be a great egotist, a valiant fighter, a bigoted religious fanatic, a dedicated and self-sacrificing leader, or even a frustrated artist or scientist, but in any event there will be a spirit of indomitable determination which will finally, after all mundane responsibilities are over, place you on the path of righteousness and spirituality. You are a reformer with a modern out-look. If you do not exercise self-control, you will destroy all orthodox beliefs. You break marriage sanctity. Some person may remain unmarried and others have to marry twice to take care of the children. This is a suitable placement for doctors, but not so good for lawyers; it is gainful for engineers, fitters, goldsmiths, iron smiths, but unsuitable for police officers. Don't expect any promotion without strife. You might run for government elections. You are very sharp, rational, brilliant and fortune by luck, as under malefic Mars all efforts are futile. You may have no elder brother or brother-in-law or you do not gain from either of them. You are hard working, have a strong drive, and live by industry or by luck. The former, even if it is a lion-like effort, is denied its reward. You are not allowed to boast that you have earned by hard work. This Mars can not afford any labor to fructify under its influence. Of course, if you have acquired any fortune due to last life, Mars will not create any hurdle in its consumption. All pains to acquire wealth will out-weigh their results. You are vicious, wealthy, reputed, adorable, debauch, fortunate, gain from agriculture, undertake fruitless journeys, are dignified, irreligious, suffer from heart burning and there might be trouble to your father. You are malevolent, sick, trapped, unfortunate, shabby, gentle, fond of learning, immoral, impotent, and your eyes, hands and body are discolored. You live with low people, might be cruel or violent at times and have distressed criminal tendencies. Beware of trouble from poison and fire and danger from voyage, litigation and through disputes. You might have bleeding feet, and feel weak. Gain comes after age 28. You might engage in trade by waterways. You have an enthusiastic mind, and are sometimes irrational, impulsive and too independent. If Mars is under good aspect you are jealous and enterprising; he will act impulsive in fiery signs, and somewhat passive in earthy or watery signs if in airy signs, you will ignore all discipline either legal or moral. Mars in this house may give religious fervor.
Mars in Lunar Mansion '2 Bharani-2'
You have a tender body. Constitution is very weak and there's a possibility of patches on the skin. In spite of these defects, you will be intelligent and hard working. You obtain recognition in the field of your study. You tend to be too addicted to the opposite sex. Hence venereal diseases may be found. You earn from sports or from silver or stainless steel.
Mercury in Pisces 29°55'09"
You live by intuition, and are humanitarian, good humored, versatile, and devoted to your partner, but progeny denied. You possess a pliable temperament, strong memory and are talented. You may travel the oceans by boat.
Mercury in Pisces with Leo ascendent
You may lose what should ordinarily belonged to you by way of inheritance. Bronchial disorders may at times be troublesome, though you will live long.
Mercury in 8th House
Mercury has the special characteristic of retrieving from past influences things which strengthen the mind, as a result of which you are able to cultivate relationships which are conducive to material prosperity, eminent status, and considerable wealth. Under this impulse, you are able to explore mystical, virgin areas of nature which open up exceptional opportunities in life.
On the physical plane, however, you beget very few children and suffer from stomach and thigh ailments. This position of Mercury is gainful, as it gives longevity, prosperity, land and property. You may have several children and get high status at age 25. Government favors and annihilation of the enemy are indicated.
You are glorious, enjoy a long life and are renowned in own and foreign land. You are cheerful, gain through business and enjoy the pleasure and confidence of the opposite sex.

You will look after your parents and attain a very high status in your career. You will be wealthy. Your interest in religious activities will be explicit, but involvement in amorous alliances will also be noteworthy. Whatever you do, or in whatever situation you may find yourself, there will be an invisible hand protecting your prestige and respectability.
Jupiter in 10th House
Jupiter in the 10th gives you an inner ideal and wants to make you free to pursue what you believe in. You can be a good counselor, an ethical professor, an occultist who studies the future, or an affectionate parent and friend. You have much affection that shows. You may lack the pure quality of humility somewhat at times due to your good qualities. You may be more traditionally religious rather than esoteric.
Socially you try to be protective and sincere rather than a fiery leader with a cause. You are versatile, flourishing, successful from the beginning, reputed, happy, rich, famous, and blessed with friends and conveyances. From your Jupiter, there is chance of danger at age 34.

Your sense of beauty will not be the 'norm' but rather, shaped by an appreciation for the earthy, the basic, the third world, the deep, the working class.
Venus in Capricorn with Leo ascendent
Venus has a restrictive effect on sociability, and you will not be successful in establishing a happy conjugal relationship. You will incur hostile feelings from the opposite sex, some of whom will scandalize you and damage your career. Diseases related to the genito-urinary tract are possible.
Venus in 6th House
Venus creates problems when placed in the sixth. Although under its influence you learn to unfold your capacities by associating with different types of people, these associations create social and personal difficulties for you. Often marital life may be in jeopardy, you become involved in bad business and debt, and at times suffer from genital related diseases.

Saturn in Cancer with Leo ascendent
Saturn often makes you indigent, shabbily dressed, penurious in your habits, and unhealthy in your general attitude. You may also suffer many physical ailments.
Saturn in 12th House
You are persistent in getting what you want. Spirituality may be attractive, but you will probably see such thoughts as your own and pursue them not out of devotion to another person, but rather out of devotion to your own path. The voice of the mortal body is loud, urging you to pleasures. You are an intense person in a number of ways - both positive and negative. You associate with the average, the hurt and unhappy. You have a hard time with standard morality. Watch out for lung ailments and save money during Jupiter major period for harder times in Saturn major. You may be able to be a popular leader in some way. At times you are rather dry, shameless and merciless, in the perceptions of others. This is good if you are in such lines of work (such as law enforcement etc.). It can make for a lack of beauty and charm in relationships however. You may find gains and success in a land or state other than that of your birth. You are reserved, like peace and seclusion, and do laborious jobs. The right eye is in some danger due to Saturn being in the 12th house.
Saturn in Lunar Mansion '8 Pushya-4'

Rahu in Aquarius 6°50'26"
Rahu in Aquarius with Leo ascendent
Rahu will intensify material proclivities. You may engage in illicit sexual affairs and thereby get into difficulties.
Rahu in 7th House
Rahu, being a karmic planet, creates much unhappiness in the seventh house. Whether alone or in association with any other planet, its impact is sorrowful. You fall into relationships with partners who are very often undesirable, quarrelsome, extravagant, and inflexible; you either suffer from genito-urinary troubles or are dishonorable. Very often you have to face separation, divorce, or death of the marriage partner.
You are fond of traveling, of changing your job, and of cultivating new associations-all with the objective of securing something for personal satisfaction. You are skillful and will confer fame and prosperity. Trouble through spouse, body aches, much enmity and loss through trade are indicated. There might be two marriages and your spouse should be careful of infections in generative organs.
This placement denotes separation from the relatives and public slander, danger of separation from kinsfolk and disgrace.

However, all this will be greatly modified through other placements in the chart.
On the positive side, the person might also be detached and have a tendency to be spiritual. A prominent Ketu can give yogic aspects to the personality, as it is the planet of the ascetic. Generally, Ketu in the Ascendant denotes some life long issue in finding the personal identity and an overall tendency to be somewhat ungrounded or feeling held back in issues of material progress in life. Don't expect a fast career, but then again, you are probably not an ambitious personality anyways...
