Lagna in Aquarius 26°07'24"
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 '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.
Sun in Aquarius 13°20'40"
Your Sun's position pushes you towards illicit romantic liaisons, which you will have to struggle to avoid. Watch for heart trouble. You may find that your past dealings with others leave you in a position, where others see you as unpopular, and to be avoided. The best way to avoid this is to avoid its cause, which is a tendency to dominate and manipulate, caused by having a very strong thinking capacity, which may put you over others who are simpler in mind. Watch for these tendencies during Sun ruled periods. If not major Sun period comes in the current life, then perhaps these things will not ever manifest very. You have great strength and courage, but a short temper. In some way or at one point in life you will gain through other peoples' marriage partners. If this only comes once in life, then it is of little concern. Otherwise, this may indicate the ability to be a divorce attorney, marriage counselor, etc. Due to something you believe or do, you may be not liked by the truly learned, probably due to some connection with 'lowliness'. There is an underlying current of unhappiness or sorrow running through your life. This is not necessarily bad, as it may push you on towards spirituality for answers. However, this Sun indicates some low vibrations in Aquarius, so watch out for being fraudulent, a traitor, dirty or miserly.

Mars in 4th House
Mars precipitates the impact of past karmic deeds, especially those of an adverse nature. Ordinarily, Mars is a planet of selfishness, greed and rash action, which, in the long run, catches up with you in the form of physical or psychological problems. Mars creates impatience, impulsiveness and self-centeredness, unless it receives auspicious aspects or is in exaltation or in its own sign. As a result, you may be considered cruel, inflexible and covetous by nature. Under such circumstances, Mars may produce affliction for the mother, loss of property, dependence on manual labor to earn a livelihood and constant movement from one place to another. Generally, you are not born into a respectable family, are abandoned by siblings, favor bad company and involve yourself in tawdry sexual affairs. You earn your living by serving bad people. Don't expect much gain through friends and relatives. You are apprehensive of enemies, get government favor, doles of clothes and fabric through the rich. Mars in this house denotes quarrels with parents, disputes in family, unpleasant domestic affairs leading to misunderstandings and strife. NOTE: Understand that this is a negative Mars placement, as Mars by its nature is not very compatible with the nature of the sensitive fourth house, and take the things mentioned in here as areas to look to for these impacts, but not necessarily as 'drastically' as they are described.

Mercury in 12th House
Mercury helps you receive cosmic inspiration and thus it is always creative. It is a neutral planet, as it does not contribute anything of its own, but transfers subjective messages into objective manifestation and transmutes objective experiences into subjective awareness.

For this reason, one finds that you are a skilled craftsman, succeeding in what you do, interested in religious activities, but also able to deceive others. This planet contributes only what you have already acquired. Mercury in the 12th is good for getting in contact with righteous persons and for warding off losses and failures. You spend on good causes, and the learned persons like you. Your failures come of your own misdeeds. You may even turn against your own people to follow your path.

The advice given by Venus can lead you to adopt bad actions which will require scores of lives to release the soul from bondage.

These activities are produced by passion, lustful intentions, psychologically acquisitive tendencies, and ritualistic or overly formal religious observances. These tendencies are greatly accentuated when Venus occupies the twelfth house, which can finally fix you in your pleasant sleep (of illusion) and in the enjoyment of a comfortable couch (karmic bondage).

You are successful in service but interested in independent business. This placement denotes mental restlessness and little financial gain. You are ethical and value affection, but are incapable of giving pleasure. You can be a successful poet, writer, painter, singer, dancer etc. You sometimes earn money. Have your excess bile checked.
