You have the Moon (mind-significator) in the 12th house (liberation from worldly entanglement). Thus, your mind spends time thinking about how to liberate yourself and others from worldly entanglements. Yet, you keenly feel a large set of restrictions or confining forces, which are not necessarily bad. Therefore, this is a suitable position for doctors, lawyers, and people of religious orders.

Moon in Lunar Mansion '4 Rohini-3'

Your life is full of ups and downs, as you do not try to pre-plan your objectives. You can attain great success in life, provided a little restraint is kept in the freedom of your mind. There is no tomorrow for you. You spend everything for the sake of today's comfort.

You can shine not only in any independent profession or business but also in social work. As far as possible, you try to be more sincere and honest in all the work you undertake. But you lack patience and forgiveness. You try to be a jack of all trades, and in the process you fail to pass through the path of requisite rhythm and system. Your freedom of mind will quite often lead you to downfall. It is also seen that some Rohini born persons have risen from the lowest rung of life to the highest rung due to other planets in the chart being very well placed. You may earn from milk products, sugarcane or as a chemical engineer. You are best adapted for mechanical and laborious work.

Between the age of 18 and 36 will be the most trialsome periods. You will have to face a lot of problems economically, socially and on health grounds. It is often noticed, that such people enjoy their lives best between the age of 38 and 50, and 65 and 75. One of the primary factors to keep in mind is that you should never take anyone into confidence. You have to be extra careful with business partners and employees. There is an inherent drawback in you, that you blindly believe others. For a happy existence, it is suggested that you should screen people thoroughly before confidence is bestowed on them.

Mars in Scorpio is powerful and its impact on accumulated Karma is to externalize it and work it out so that its influence for the future is nullified. In order to do this, you will meet serious opposition to your way of doing things and to your social nature. When such opposition arises, you get into difficulties and become emotionally 'dried up.' But soon the crisis is over and you are free from opposition. Physically, you may suffer from fever, infections, and boils or other skin eruptions.
Mars in 6th House
Mars in the Sixth house is considered helpful; it has a great destructive force which enables you to transcend all sorts of difficulties (it destroys the difficulties represented by the 6th house such as disease and debts).

People in general may find you tight-fisted, but you will not be encumbered by debt.

Mercury in Scorpio 13°11'30"
For some reason, due to the past, your deeper thinking or intelligence, has become rather quick and reactive and you may feel somewhat argumentative and sarcastic towards others. Overall in life, your thinking puts you on an impatient or resentful course. Therefore, it behooves you to find a way of thinking that calms you down and gives you a spiritual course.
Mercury in Scorpio with Gemini ascendent
Mercury is especially difficult here. At worst it can strangle the entire personality and destroy all finer feelings. It may produce a life of intrigue, unpredictability, and dissatisfied sexual desires. Male sterility or female barrenness can also be produced by this combination.
Mercury in 6th House
Mercury in the sixth completely upsets you physically and socially. You experience so many inner subjective changes that your physical relationships are subject to severe turbulence. Your mind is so stirred up that there is little social or psychological stability. You may be catapulted from abject poverty to regal splendor, but you cannot hold onto anything. There may be physical difficulties, sexual experimentation, and marital incompatibility leading to separation, divorce, or sexual abuse. But through all these vicissitudes, significant psychological transformation and a widening of awareness and great insight into life can be experienced. You may suffer from nervous breakdown and from ailments due to tension connected with work. You are oppressed by inferiors, and tend to be over-excited and rash. Afflictions to Mercury tend to ruin the health through anxiety. You are an energetic mental worker missing the best mental outlet for your energies.

Jupiter in 8th House
Jupiter in this position operates like a filter which permits past religious impulses to manifest only in terms of traditional belief systems. Consequently you become learned, industrious, and interested in the scriptural knowledge of your tradition and the higher values of life; you practice severe penance as well as arduous rituals.

Nonetheless, the desire for sexual union drives you to marriage, possibly with widowed partners, or with 'religious' people. The spouse may come from a religious concern. Fame and prosperity, patrimony or legacy are indicated. This Jupiter is responsible for imprisonment due to strife.

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.

Because you feel restrictions arise mainly out of society's typical understanding of happy family life, you are compassionate on others troubles, which you see all around you.

Saturn in this sign will enable you to travel widely in different countries and will destroy your assets and property. Your social respectability will be low, but you will not be deterred by any public reaction. Your personal morality may be low as well.
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.

Rahu in 12th House
Rahu in the twelfth house of redemption makes the physical life difficult and upsets all established order. The expected course of life is not followed and you are forced to adopt a way of life in which there is much suffering, physical debility and psychological helplessness. Your movement is restricted, and mental anguish often becomes acute. But the ordeals of life caused by Rahu provide you with the celestial nectar.

After a big psychological purging, you receive a spiritual bath and are anointed into the secret mysteries of life. From the material standpoint, Rahu in the twelfth house is considered inauspicious, suggesting that the purging operation manifests through immoral acts and unfortunate events. In the ordeal of the spiritual path, such difficulties are necessary. Rahu functions as a karmic agent, producing trials so that the latent spirituality which is the true influence of the twelfth house may emerge. You are miserable, and however hard you may work, you do not get any success or gain, rather suffer losses, but ultimately you succeed in your desires and ambitions. You are the friend of the wicked and knave and enemy of the good and noble. You are very humble.

You have sharp pain in ribs and suffer from acute bilious pain in the chest and heart. With best effort you can not modify your early life, but the latter part is most fruitful. You are quarrelsome, idle, a debtor, cunning, immodest, rich, benevolent, and may suffer from ailment of the eyes, a wound in the feet, and a slur on the family. You waste away your time and energy, but you can meet your demand if you stay in one place. Much traveling and separation from spouse and family are indicated. You may be ugly and shabby. Beware of being robbed by lowly tribals.

You might be separated from your maternal uncle. You feel repentant after losing temper. You are inert, weak, hostile to relatives, and tend to cheat and ill-spend money.

You are inclined to spiritualism. You suffer loss of wealth and children and have more than one companion. You earn your livelihood in foreign lands and might lead a life of begging.
Ketu in Scorpio 0°20'30"
Ketu in Scorpio with Gemini ascendent
Ketu may involve you in bizarre sexual relations, and at worst may even lead to criminal acts. Nevertheless, these activities will be rationalized on the basis of some idealistic consideration. Your problems will become known and your company will be shunned. You will be rigorously punished for any anti-social behavior.
Ketu in 6th House
Ketu in this position affects the mental principle and enables you to develop the powers of abstract thinking. Deeper levels of contemplation, often leading to the higher realms where one solves the abstruse problems of one's inner life, may result from such a combination. Under this planetary influence you may achieve a remarkable conceptualization of abstract principles and a formulation of universal laws, but the problems of life are likely to mar your thinking. The final days are often sorrowful, full of physical suffering and a realization of the futility of human endeavor.

You experience enormous difficulties in life, and considerable humiliation during major periods of your earthly existence. It denotes discomfiture and disillusionment through maternal uncle and destruction of enemies. You might get some land-related wealth, but stay a pauper anyway. You have sound health and recover soon, if there is any ailment.
