Lagna in Taurus 29°00'04"
Taurus in the Ascendant bestows a pleasing face, a small thick neck, plump thighs, broad shoulders and a well-built muscular body. Amiable by temperament, artistic in nature, libidinous in character, you can be categorized as essentially materialistic. Fond of luxury, favoring romance, but tending to cultivate bad company. Self-respecting and happy, mostly in the middle and latter portions of life.
Yogakaraka Saturn, although owning the 9th and 10th house, produces a Yoga which is hard to collect on. It's a Yoga, but a difficult one to fully realize, depending on the placement of Saturn in the chart. Venus ruled periods should be good for money. Mars ruled periods produce financial prosperity, Jupiter periods are mixed. You like to win, will have the tendency of gathering wealth right from youth, will have a broad and strong forehead, nose, cheeks and lips, be industrious, fortunate, liberal, be devoted to your parents, will have many expenses, be very short tempered, phlegmatic and windy in humor, be the parent of (many) daughters, will insult your own people, be not very religious, be interested in affairs for romance, fickle-minded, fond of food and drinks and endowed with various kinds of clothes and ornaments. These are general tendencies, caused by the Ascendant sign, subject to great modification by the entire horoscope.
Lagna in Lunar Mansion '5 Mrigashira-2'
The star ruling your Moon or Ascendant is Mrigashira.
You will have a beautiful and tall body, moderate complexion, thin legs and long arms. There is a peculiar tendency seen in you: you have a doubting nature, and are always suspicious of everything. You are very sincere in your dealings with others and you expect the same reciprocal sincerity from others which you normally do not get. Because of your sincere nature, others find it pleasant to deal with you.
But a word of precaution is necessary here; you have to be very careful while dealing with friends and relatives and also in any partnership business, as you may be cheated. Blind trust put on others will quite often lead you into frustration and repentance. You have a knack to deal with even those who ditch you. You have natural initiative, awareness, brilliancy of mind, eagerness and active agility, but as a result of your affectionate regard for others, you are buffeted by both circumstances and people.
You are a simpleton. You prefer a life of simplicity and principles. You always express impartial and sincere opinions. You can be impatient to the point of intolerance, when confronted with prejudice, judgment or action by others. While you express to respect and adopt others, it is never brought into your personal life. You act according to your own sweet will.
Outwardly, you express to the public, that you are courageous and will not hesitate to do anything which requires extreme courage, whereas you are an inborn coward. You will not have peace of mind and get irritated even on small matters. Your life up to 32 years of age will be full of trial and errors and would appear to be like a lost boat in the center of the ocean, i.e. the question of where to go, how to go and why to go will permanently rampage your mind without any conclusion. From your 32nd age onwards, life will start settling down to the maximum satisfaction provided other planetary positions are good.
You will have good education. You are a very good financial adviser. You advise others to curb the spending, but you cannot control the expenditure and at last find yourself in extreme economic conflict. You achieve success in life, including business if engaged, after the age of 32 years. Till that time you have to face several ups and downs. You often begin projects, rather than finishing the tediously routine tasks at hand. It is mainly due to percipience rather than weakness and above all your ability to understand the possibility of success or no success of a project in hand, discard it immediately and replace it with another which is more viable. In other words, you cannot undertake any permanent or continuing nature of work.
In some cases, it has been noticed that you have the capacity to undertake any sort of job but you become frustrated. This drawback is attributable to the nature of the very Nakshatra you are born.
The period between 33 years and 50 years will be a period of full of strength and activities followed with utmost satisfaction. During this period, you will achieve the benefits unexpectedly. But whatever you will be earning during this period, will be wasted later on due to your own fault.
No benefit will be derived from siblings. Siblings will not only cause troubles and problems, but also maintain extreme enmity so as to harm you. Your sincere love and affection will not have any effect on relatives. In other words, you are mistaken absolutely for no fault of your own.
Your spouse may not keep good health. Moreover, your married life is not cordial, mainly due to differences of opinion on silly matters, and the adamant nature of your spouse. In some cases, it is seen that the reason for the disharmony between you is mainly due to the better occupation in life by one of you, and the consequent inferiority complex.
You have to face ill-health during your childhood. Frequent constipation, ultimately leading to stomach disorder, cuts and injuries, and pains in the shoulders near collarbone are some of the physical problems you may have to deal with.

You like to have very neat and delicious food. It is because of this that you are a very good host. You are God-fearing and have full respect for elders. You are a believer in victory for truth.

Rahu in 10th House
Your mission in life is for furthering some special cause in the world. Depending on your status in society and the planetary combinations, this special mission may be predicted, but the real impulse of this shadowy planet will be to make you dedicated to a cause which you will want to carry forward even at the risk of life, status, or health.
Undaunted by any difficulty, undeterred by any impediment, you will persist with a sense of dedication, whether you are waging a war of complete annihilation, reconstructing a social order, or composing verses of celestial beauty and harmony. Rahu achieves its objective despite whatever hardships it has to undergo. Its impulse produces persons of great merit, devotion, and religious susceptibilities. With inauspicious associations and influences Rahu can, however, make you disturbed and instill evil ideas in your head.

You have few sons. Danger from conveyances and danger and trouble for parents and brothers is indicated.
You are a manager, advisor or chief of a group. (Note: Rahu is in charge of a number of not so good qualities. The 10th is an important house. These things may only appear in thoughts, and they might not necessarily manifest, but this depends on the overall strength of the chart.)
You are sensual, extravagant, affluent, a winner, fickle, fond of poetry and drama, competition or confrontation, migratory, and successful in business. Rahu makes you a bit of an intoxicator, or wrong doer at times, and causes sleeplessness, living or working with foreigners, and sex with choice partners.
You find comfort and pleasure in the company of irreligious people, are discontented with own relatives or father, fall in love with divorced or separated persons, or persons from disturbed love affairs. You get support from strong persons, and are clever but tense. These things may be connected to career as the 10th rules career.

You do not feel equal to any occasion and your reactions to life situations and human relationships are often perverse. You are precocious but anti-social.
Ketu in 4th House
This Ketu can have a strong influence on life in the following way: It sometimes renders the mind unbalanced, disturbs social relationships and makes personal life difficult. Ketu manifests itself in the psychology of an individual rather than on the material conditions of life. Placed in the 4th house indicates that full support and help from the mother may have not been present. Often you are away from home, and when you are home, there is some strife. Ketu holds things back and upsets things.
The fourth house stands for mother, the heart, home life, real estate and emotional comfort. These particular issues in your life may have some troublesome aspects. You may find that you are not quite able to surrender your heart to something you feel pretty good about. Reservations for no reason may appear, for example. This will be Ketu acting, just to test your resolve to make you feel convinced and sure of what you do.
Ketu in the 4th may indicate that the mother holds back from giving to you for some reason, or that inheritance from her side is withheld. You leave the 'mother's home' early, and you are of the nervous type. In an assembly of persons, you may sometimes be looked down on, or not seen as equal to the others. Some kind of stigma is there. But you are valiant, truth loving, soft and sweet. Watch for an overly critical nature and unpleasantness with the parents.
Ketu in the 4th indicates that you may have a hard time getting or keeping real estate. Land and property may become a confusing issue at times - you may not know what to do about a piece of property in a Ketu ruled period for example. People may consider you in contempt. Ketu makes you thin and fiery. There will be some jeopardy of the honor of yourself or family. There might also be much strife or discord in the family background, especially coming from the mother's side.
Ketu in Lunar Mansion '10 Magha-2'
You may lead a separate and excluded life. You may search for happiness, but fail to look in the obvious place, like home. You may lead a renounced life for some time and return home after middle age.
