Lagna in Aquarius 6°08'52"
Aquarius in the Ascendant is not a common placement and is considered very good for spiritual life, but if you are not spiritual, then you may be very materialistic. Hard lessons are going to be taught to you, and you will have to face difficult tests. You should be proud of this. Temptation and truth are two words you will come to understand. The two refuse to live together. You will be tempted with the ups and downs of this world and if you give in, it will overtake you. But if you surrender to divine truth and serve it, it will also overtake you, which is a better choice. Aquarius Ascendant tends to make one an average person. This Ascendant makes material life somewhat of a drudgery by increasing the chances of being a simpleton, an outcast, poor, etc. It does however promote devotion to elders and traditional values.
Lagna in Lunar Mansion '23 Dhanishtha-4'
The Star ruling your Ascendant or Moon is Dhanishtha.
Normally, you have a lean body with lengthy figure. In exceptional cases you may have a stout figure. You will be expert in all work you undertake. You have an extremely intelligent mind and all around knowledge. You do not like to cause any trouble to others. It has been seen that you have a religious spirit. You always like to live by your own caliber and effort. You dislike to express disagreement with others till the last moment. Most of us are probably aware of the elephant's revenge. That is, if any person or any animal cause trouble to the elephant, the elephant waits for an opportunity to bounce on them. In the same way you wait for an opportunity to pounce on others with whom you have a score to settle.
A number of horoscopes that I have examined reveal that most scientists and historians are born in this Nakshatra. Since there is an inherent talent of keeping secrets, you are quite suitable for secret service, or being a private secretary to senior executives. Whatever may be your academic background your intelligence is beyond question. In argument you are much ahead of others. Hence lawyers profession is the best for you. After age 24, there be progress in the earning field. Since you will be engaged in the profession or trade where you have to trust others, you should be very careful before putting trust in others. In the family circle you will be the uppermost administrator. Your relatives will cause a lot of embarrassment and problems. You are more inclined to brothers and sisters. You will have ample inherited property subject to the placement of planets in beneficial position. You cannot have much benefit from in-laws. But this drawback will be nullified due to the presence of the good qualities of your spouse. Any improvement in the financial field will be only after marriage.
Your health may not be so good at times. But even then you will not care about it. It is only when the illness reaches the peak you start finding a remedy. Slightest improvement out of the severest disease will drag you to the work field. You are prone to coughs, anemia etc. However, you will not be in a prolonged state of illness.
Sun in Gemini 28°01'48"
This brings the following general characteristics, which get modified by specific aspects and other placements in your chart: You will be a scholarly or thoughtful person, will have sweet or careful speaking and be affectionate, especially to your offspring if any. You will tend towards careful conduct and expertise in worldly knowledge, though you may be able to also excel in ultra-mundane or spiritual knowledge as well. This Sun is capable of granting wealth (subject to house placement). You may be liberal and skillful, have a secondary mother figure, and have talent in astrology. You may have a medium level of bodily beauty and may be modest.
Sun in Gemini with Aquarius ascendent
This placement indicates only one child.
Your intellectual faculties are greatly developed. You become a proficient thinker, an expert legal authority, a shrewd negotiator, a deep student of occultism (especially astrology), an interpreter of symbolism in spiritual literature, or a very proficient accountant. You will easily pick up any subject where a logical mind and penetrating insight is needed. For these auspicious influences, you may pay the price of remaining childless, though your marriage partner may be helpful in your educational and intellectual pursuits.
Sun in 5th House
The fifth house is a strong placement for the Sun. It focuses the intelligence more on learning than material gathering. Usually this limits or denies children. This is favorable for becoming a spiritualist and teaching same. Idealistic tendencies may surface. Sharp intellect, even cruelty to opponents may manifest. You may be inclined to study philosophy, alchemy, astrology, etc.
The Sun works on the consciousness aspect of life rather than on matter or form. Thus it ordinarily bestows only one son and does not help to make the individual rich. It will, however, make you intellectually bright. You may suffer on account of your first born son. Your mind is sharp. You are sometimes manipulative of others, and you enjoy amassing money. This is favorable for all matters of enterprising nature. The speculative interests are very keen and the capacity for enjoyment, very great.
Children are harmed by the Sun in the 5th. Either abortions, early loss, or problems from them arise. The exact type is not sure, but that some harm or trouble from or to the children is indicated by this Sun, so beware accordingly. Also, you like to roam in forests and hills, and your mind is very good, though you use it sometimes to cheat others. This Sun is good for learning. Second marriage is partially indicated by this placement also.
Sun in Lunar Mansion '7 Punarvasu-3'
Moon in Aquarius 25°34'36"
You are kind to the masses, accepting of low class ways, very grateful, because you feel you don't deserve much, very independent and accepting of hard work, interested in factual science and astrology and often found to be addicted to habits such as smoking or drugs. It is a beautiful combination for artistic expressions with lots of feeling. It is also good for being a worker for the upliftment of the downtrodden of the world. Aquarius is a very moody and depressive sign, often leading to mental depression, but with a twist of philosophy and religion involved. It can lead to very strong religious experiences and eventually a very strict mental composure.
Moon in Aquarius with Aquarius ascendent
This position can give very poor results. Usually you are tall with a long neck, hard-hearted, adulterous, and covetous of other people's wealth. You often suffer from financial loss and engage in undesirable activities. You may be scandalized and persecuted.
Moon in 1st House
You will be gregarious and will want everyone to appreciate you. This will be especially true when the Moon is in female signs. You can suffer from somnambulism or sleepwalking. Another way to take this is that you are sleepwalking sometimes during the daydreaming in life. You take your mental life very seriously. Handsome but fickle. Scared of water or sickness. In your 15th year you can travel much. In general context it is stated that the Moon in the Ascendant can make one cunning, short-statured, valorous, happy, liking nice milk-based foods, interested in astrology, famous in the later part of life, subject to perils, and disbelieving of your spouse.
Moon in Lunar Mansion '25 Purva Bhadrapada-2'
The Star ruling your Ascendant or Moon is Purva Bhadrapada.
You are of medium size, both in length and body size, and have a broad cheeks and fleshy lips. You are generally a peace loving person, but occasional blasting has also been noticed. You are a very simple type. Since you are principled, you have to suffer a lot mentally because you take even a small confrontation or problem into your heart. You like good food and are a voracious eater. You are not very particular about dressing. You normally express an impartial opinion, and do not believe in the blind principles of religion. You are ever ready to render a helping hand to the needy. Even so, hatred and resistance will be your reward in return. You can easily enjoy the respect and confidence of others even if you are financially weak. You are God- fearing and perform religious rites in accordance with the scriptures. While you will be moderately rich, you like to have respect and honor from the public rather than accumulating money. You are impartial in expressing your views.
As you are born intelligent and have the knack of trade you can shine in any type. If you are employed in a government organization you can look forward to unexpected gains or promotions. You are capable of leading a quite independent life, both socially and financially. Between 24 to 33 years of age will mark remarkable all around progress in life. Even then occasional mental tension is not ruled out. Between 40 and 54 years of age will be your golden period when you can establish fully. You keep restrictions on the spending activities. You can shine in the field of business, banking, in a government job, or as a teacher, actor or writer, research worker, or astrologer or astronomer. If in government service, you are engaged in the revenue collection department or in any capacity where cash transactions take place.
You cannot fully enjoy the love and affection from your mother due to early separation from her as she will be working. Naturally, being a working mother, she is away most of the time and you are automatically separated.
One of the redeeming features is that there will be a lot of things with which you can be proud of in your father. Subject to other favorable planetary positions, your father has been found to have fame and possess a very good moral character. Such popularity may be mainly in the field of fine arts, oration or in the writing field. In spite of these good qualities, you and your father quite often disagree and confrontation takes place.
You are prone to paralytic attack, acidity and diabetes. You may also have problems with the ribs, flanks and soles of the feet.
Mars in Libra 21°00'52"
You are very exacting, like a scientist. You get much opposition and rivalry. Gains through the opposite sex. Reverses through business and love affairs. Blessed with noble offspring. You may indulge in a negative business or deals in something against the common current of 'goodness'. An able speaker, fortunate, some problem in a limb, few relatives, fond of wars, loses first spouse. Mars in Libra makes you a bit of a wanderer. Sometimes you lose in business attempts, probably due to pushing too hard where it just won't work. You are aggressive about justice. You like battles or competition, and you may have more than one marriage. You may have a business that others look down on.
Mars in Libra with Aquarius ascendent
You will put energy towards spiritual life, but will not push on for extended periods. You will instead have a tendency to abandon a path after a while. This may not be bad necessarily, but has more to do with a lack of ongoing interest.
Mars in this position will help you dedicate yourself to your ideals. Mental obsessions, however, completely pervade your life, and you cannot rest until your goals are reached. When you do achieve them, you may die shortly afterwards, having nothing further to hold you here.
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 '16 Vishakha-1'
Your expenditures will be more than your income. There may be some defect in your body and limbs. Your disregard for others' feelings may cause you suffering.
Mercury in Gemini 27°01'04"
You are very inventive and smart. It is very difficult to find an executive or diplomat more talented than you. You like to study and therefore, you have a liking for science and technology. You like to be well-informed and you are very sociable and friendly.
Mercury in Gemini with Aquarius ascendent
Your educational career will be smooth, with a special aptitude for research. In every branch of study where a logical mind and inquiring intellect are needed, you will succeed.
Mercury in 5th House
There will be happiness on account of children.
Mercury in Lunar Mansion '7 Punarvasu-3'
You will do honorary work to several institutions. This placement indicates hard work but difficulty in earning a lot of money.
Jupiter in Taurus 25°11'54"
This placement adds an air of fairness and kindness and will tend to make you homebound. You will like to gain through wisdom, your partners or spouses in life, your children or through teaching children or leading others. Like all readings, if this placement is afflicted, quite the opposite may result.
Jupiter in Taurus with Aquarius ascendent
You will be very comfortable, rich and respectable. You will be learned, but many swindlers and rogues will seek your advice. Your status in society will be honorable, but your ego will be covetous, even towards other people's spouses.
Jupiter in 4th House
With Jupiter in the 4th house, very evolved souls are born. You have learned good lessons in a previous life and have thereby earned meritorious rewards. Thus you are born into a very respectable family, receive much recognition from the state and are placed in happy surroundings with a luxurious house, own an excellent car, have abundant family and friends and respectable means of livelihood.
You are spiritually inclined, respecting the saints and seers, are well-versed in the branches of higher learning and are capable of overcoming personal difficulties by ethical means. You earn wealth and property as a result of government support and are happy in disposition. You will have good vehicles in general, or less hassles in this area than other people. This is a single planet reading, subject to great modification by other aspects, conjunctions, etc.
Jupiter in Lunar Mansion '5 Mrigashira-1'
You have a wavering mind and are fond of writing and reading. You tend to have short and square body. You will earn name, fame and wealth. You are prone to gout in the hands and shoulders and physical disability.
Venus in Gemini 25°58'36"
Your Venus, being in Gemini, gives name and fame through science, art, literature, composition of poetry and drama. You are intuitive, ingenious, humorous, get income through varied sources. This placement is conducive to mental growth. You are amicable and friendly, but unfaithful in love affairs.
Venus in Gemini with Aquarius ascendent
You will be in demand in learned societies. You will be superbly talented in music and other fine arts, sociability and demeanor will be suave, your learning and social status commendable, and your children well-mannered, intelligent and fortunate.
Venus in 5th House
Venus is more concerned with sensual enjoyment than accepting responsibility. Under its influence, you are more interested in appreciating or patronizing the arts than in creating them, and more inclined to romance than the duties of parenthood. You will have more daughters than sons, and will be wealthy and cultured.
Your goal in life is not concerned with the attainment of spiritual awareness or an enduring reputation: immediate gain, sociability, respectability and sensual enjoyment motivate you. Venus in the 5th house indicates success in love affairs, lasting pleasures out of life, fruitful union and beautiful children, name and fame through off-spring, and social accomplishments through entertainment, concerts and gatherings.
Gains through speculation, investments, art and music, children, schools and playgrounds are also indicated. You may be blessed with noble sons, financial gain, success and the capacity to compose classics. Early birth of a son is possible. This placement can give sudden and large gain, the ability to recite poetry in assemblies and opportunities for delicious food. You have faithful friends, are lustful, effluent, and an advisor or lawyer.
You are good-looking, blessed with many vehicles, and learned and skilled in art and poetry. You get royal honor, are rich, skilled, a capable leader, politician or diplomat and dexterous in amorous sport. You are learned in various sciences, prosperous, proud and charitable, tactful, just and fair. There might be loss of reputation at some times in your life.
Venus in Lunar Mansion '7 Punarvasu-2'
You will have difficulty staying focused and motivated. You will need to be careful of this characteristic as it may cause some problems.
Saturn in Gemini 22°40'01"
Scientific, perfect, methodical and systematic in action, if overcomes passion. Trouble and ill-reputation through relatives, financial problems, wrong association with the opposite sex. Tendency to delay matters.
Saturn in Gemini with Aquarius ascendent
Saturn will be quite troublesome. Though you may beget a few children, they will not be valuable assets, and your personal life will not be conducive to spiritual studies. Technical studies, including medicine, may be possible, but you will have neither a happy family life, nor a respectable social circle, nor money for the conveniences of life. You may be an intellectual without moral character.
Saturn in 5th House
Saturn constricts where it influences. In the fifth house, it restricts the children, makes childbirth difficult, or makes children seem restrictive and troublesome to you. It brings unhappiness with life. You are self-destructive towards spousal relationships. The education has breaks. What others see as high ideals may not inspire you. You are likely to be in manual labor, not caring for common law, and lacking finances. Unfortunate in love relationships, you prefer those who are senior in age and manner. You like those who are religious. You may feel unsuccessful in your pursuit of prayer because you feel unworthy which, giving you a feeling of not achieving your religious goal (which is philosophically a great thing as feeling successful in religion is ridiculous to those who know it well). You feel your mind is impure and you have disputes with friends. All this adds up to you becoming really religious. Trouble comes to the children and to yourself because of doubts or wrong advice. You are negative about the rich, and grief comes from friends. Your deep thoughts may be of such a nature as to make you not caring for friends so much, not willing to be relied on, and thus an unknown. This you may take as inevitable or even welcome.
Saturn in Lunar Mansion '7 Punarvasu-1'
You may tend to waste your wealth in speculation. You may be employed as a mechanic. There is an indication of some criminal activity and debt. Living conditions are difficult.
Rahu in Scorpio 17°58'06"
Rahu in Scorpio with Aquarius ascendent
Rahu produces complete renunciation; your consciousness is merged with cosmic consciousness to keep you perpetually in a blissful state. You will have highly developed powers of spiritual healing.
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.
Rahu in the 10th gives rise to Raja Yoga during his own periods. Danger to mother at age 32, to father, at age 7 and to patrimony at age 8 is indicated. You get public honor and respect at age 42. Name, fame, and status through hard work and skill are indicated. You are connected with spouses who are disrespected due to their service, and might experience loss of land, wealth, and health. You feel inclined towards some type of disrespected poetry. You might residence in a backward village.
Your Rahu denotes that you may be so fortunate as to visit the sacred holy places in this lifetime. You might be clever, a thief, malicious, characterless, quarrelsome, sensual, dishonest, brave, wise, wealthy, chattering, miserable, fearful, inert, indifferent, unfortunate, helpful, live abroad, and are unsteady, and vicious. 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.
Rahu in Lunar Mansion '18 Jyeshtha-1'
Ketu in Taurus 17°58'06"
Ketu in Taurus with Aquarius ascendent
Life holds little charm for you and you are always preoccupied in exploring the secrets of nature. Emotions, sensual pleasures, human relationships and material riches hold no attraction for you. Your greatest joy is realized only when your consciousness is united with the universal consciousness, though in ordinary life such an integration is difficult to achieve. There may also be some interest in the occult.
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 '4 Rohini-3'
You are a teacher and have a large family. You enjoy a good period up to your 30th year out of inheritance and thereafter waste your wealth on your spouse. You may have throat or mouth disease or stammering.
