Lagna in Libra 4°31'38"
A Libra Ascendant usually bestows a long face, an attractive appearance, tender eyes and sparsely set teeth. You are generally above average height, lean and thin. Mentally, you are disorganized, emotionally unstable and socially unbalanced. You are extravagant, generous, helpful and simple at heart. You crave social contact and the assurance that other people need you. You are also subject to contradictory thoughts and actions. You are fond of justice and law, but easily irritated. Your friends and benefactors tend to be well positioned individuals, but you can also associate with dishonest people who, unfortunately, might stick with you for years. Physically you appear strong and healthy, but you may secretly suffer from diseases relating to the loins and kidneys, and should take precaution against urinary tract infections. You may have a strong desire for artistic achievement, but fail to actualize it. Saturn is a very powerful planet for you. Jupiter is not very good. You are fond of helping the lowly, and so much so that you may use base acts to achieve your goals. You respect spiritual leaders, because they respect principle centered persons, but you are often too driven to stick strictly to principles yourself, but would rather see to it that the objective gets carried out.
Lagna in Lunar Mansion '14 Chitra-4'
The Nakshatra ruling your Ascendant or Moon is Chitra. Physical features: you have a lean body. In some cases there is an indication of a stout and tall body.
You can be recognized or identified in a crowd of hundreds of people through your magnificent dealings and expressions. There is a hidden inherent gift of having wonderful ideas that may initially appear silly, but are later viewed as excellent. There is also an inherent gift of intuition. You are the type of person who is very much fit for the astrological profession where intuition is very much needed. In some cases it is also noticed that you may experience dreams that come true. This indirectly indicates that a divine power may be installed in the psyche of those born under Chitra.
You are the type of person who is not bothered about the sentiments of others, nor are you selfish to others. Your dealings with the poor will be very cordial and full of kindness. You may be mistaken by others as rude and stingy. Guard your tendency to speak before you think. You may have to confront your enemies at every step but are capable of escaping any conspiracy. You have a soft spot for those in need and spend your energy in their upliftment.
Education, sources of income/profession: obstacles in life are no problem for you. You can overtake all hurdles with courage and hard work. You may not lead a comfortable life up to the age of 32 years. The period between 33 years and 54 years of age will be your golden period. One of the redeeming features of Chitra born is that you receive help from unexpected places without much effort.
Family life: while you love and respect your siblings and parents, you may experience some doubts concerning them. You may not enjoy the benefit, love and affection of your father. You may even live separated from him, and he may be famous or successful. You are more attached to your mother and enjoy benefit from the maternal side.
There is a saying that the Chitra born cannot stay in the house where she/he is born. This may manifest in many ways, you may travel and live far from your home town, or your childhood home may be destroyed. In any case you will settle far from home. Married life may be considerably strained, and while the marriage will be stable, the relationship between the couples may not be cordial, at times leading to frequent friction on small matters.
Health: there may be some difficulty with internal organs.
Sun in Aquarius 5°08'39"
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.

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).

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.

Ketu in Pisces with Libra ascendent
You will forgive all enemies. In reality, you will have no enemies, for you will be a true seeker, believing in Karma and divine law.
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.
You get little gain, success and pleasure from the maternal in-laws. You possess animals or the means of business, or conveyances. You tend to be free from sickness, worry and wealth.
