Lagna in Virgo 20°15'18"
Virgo in the Ascendant allows the primordial feminine power to pour down into the individual's personality. You may not be constitutionally strong, but are pleasing in appearance, feminine by temperament, sharp in intellect, and capable of interpreting the thoughts of others. Given over to sensual pleasures, the spiritual quest will not be your forte. You like to be surrounded by respectable people, who could be famous as authors, tradesmen, lawyers, diplomats and even martyrs. You may attain material prosperity and be honored outside your immediate surroundings and country. You can be easily frustrated, and your passionate nature often leads to serious psychological complications. You may even have a psychopathic personality and often found to be deceitful, critical, manipulative and covetous of other people's wealth. You are full of anxiety for the world at large and usually do not have many children. You will be gentle, skillful in music, poetry and fine arts and in training or teaching others, be a sweet speaker, a liar, be affectionate, interested in charitable works and serving others, be endowed with goodness, enjoy others' wealth, wander, have a female's disposition, be modest, attempt to enlarge your landed properties, be fortunate, sensuous, virtuous, merciful and beautiful, will honor elders, be sinful, inimical to brothers, may have (more) daughters, be phlegmatic and windy in humor and will be away from base and inimical people.

Character and general events: you will have a calm nature. There will be a peculiarity when you smile, in other words your sweet smile has the magnetic power to attract others. This inherent quality produces a vibration on others, and it becomes difficult to leave you once such acquaintance takes place. You can easily get respect and honor from the public. You are always in readiness to help the needy for nothing in return. You do not like to deceive others even if it may cost you your life. In spite of this good quality, the reward you may get in return is nothing but criticism and opposition.

You do not believe in a posh living. At one moment you may rise to the top and another moment you may fall to the bottom, whether in the professional field or mentally. Hence you cannot be categorized as permanently poor or wealthy. When you enter in a particular field and start gaining the object, reversal is already in store for you. While you try to get out of such reversal through your own effort, help comes from unexpected quarters and you achieve moderate success in the undertaking. It may appear that there is some hidden curse. The sincerity and endeavour which you show in work should give you a wonderful boost. Although you do not desire to cause any trouble to others, once you are hurt, you may be in search of revenge. At the same time you take consolation in the feats of God by thinking 'Let god give me this punishment' and you slowly withdraw from the scene of conflict.

Education, sources of earning/profession: in the work field, you keep strict discipline. Normally employment in a subordinate level is not fit for you. You are most likely to be engaged in business or in a high position in industry. You will possess excellent all around knowledge. You will show to the world that you are not behind anybody on any matter. You are a good adviser as you have the capacity to intervene and settle various disputed matters. Many responsibilities will have to be undertaken by you before you can climb the ladder of success.

Period up to your 30th year of age will bring in unexpected circumstantial changes both in the family front as well as in the academic and professional or business field. Period between 30 to 42 years of age will be your golden period, when you can settle down in your life. There will be remarkable accumulation of wealth and all around success in the business field in your later years.

Family life: you are able to enjoy a peaceful married life, even though occasional friction as is expected in a family will definitely be there. Your spouse will be simple and capable. Health: you may be prone to cough and cold.
