Lagna in Cancer 0°33'00"
Cancer in the Ascendant gives a pleasing appearance of medium height, a round face, a thick neck and plump buttocks. Amiable in disposition, soft in speech, a connoisseur of good food and fond of luxurious living. You have the admirable quality of feeling at home in almost every situation.

You are a bundle of contradictions, greatly influenced by your planetary configurations. You are gentle, feminine in attribute, watery and have strength during the night and when 'resting near a lake, pond, or sand bank.' Materialistic in your approach to life, you are nevertheless capable of attaining great heights in spiritual practices. You may withdraw from the mainstream of life, actively pursuing your ethereal interests in seclusion, though outwardly you seem to be deeply engrossed in your earthly profession.

You can rise to sublime heights or sink into gross materialism. However, you do not really enjoy any situation. You may easily capture the object of your desire, but sex alone will not satisfy you. You may possess material riches and luxuries, but pine for something else. Even spiritual attainments and realizations seem of no consequence. Either you long for the past, or for that which is not yet in your possession.

Your attitude toward life and the parameters of your emotions and thoughts are always changing-nothing can hold your attention for long. You always shine in reflected glory. You must hold onto someone higher, mightier, wealthier, more respected, through whose support and patronage you can express your own qualities. In the absence of such an influence you seem forlorn, made of straw.

Given the opportunity to explain abstruse philosophical thoughts, you can reel out poetry to express them beautifully. But if required to articulate your own independent ideas on any subject, you might fail miserably. As long as love and affection are bestowed on you, you will react with the greatest sincerity, but once that situation of warmth and recognition is withdrawn, you become most miserable, just as if the life force had been drained from you. It has been observed, that emotional excitement, aggressive designs, and the pursuit of self-aggrandizement often lead a Cancer born individual to destruction.

Your greatest trouble comes from Saturn, the planet of restriction: whenever any situation arises which impedes your natural growth, you get enmeshed in an inextricable tangle. Your marriage is seldom happy; you often surrender yourself to your partner, either in emotional excitation or through some kind of infatuation, only to discover that your understanding of the situation was not realistic.

Something done in a hurry, prohibited by society and performed to derive some mean favor, often becomes a stumbling block, causing life long sorrow. Whatever happens in life, you are basically shy, unable to express your innermost feelings and thoughts or live a completely natural life.

If you examine carefully several horoscopes of persons born in Cancer Ascendant, you will invariably find that Jupiter in his Dasha has given rise to both good and bad results - bad in respect of debts, diseases and enemies. Though Jupiter may not cause Raja Yoga in the strict sense, as he promotes business and professional prospects involving you at the same time in misunderstandings, troubles, annoyances and ill-health.

Therefore, others have to be careful while approaching you. It is very difficult to know your inner thought. You are contented with little but at the same time you are hot tempered. You stick to ancient tradition and belief. You will not stand a party to any illegal activities and will try to resist others from doing so. You do not like to cause trouble to others, on the other hand you try to help the needy. You will lead a simple life.

Education, sources of earning/profession: you can shine and get success in almost all the subjects, except in partnership business. You can attain much name and fame as a teacher or as an actor, writer, physician etc. Period up to 32 years of age may be difficult; as a result try to avoid any major business dealings until after that year. You may not be in a position to accumulate wealth but you can attain public honor. You may have a lack of business trick and inherent straightforwardness. One peculiar expression can be seen in your face i.e. an innocent and frustrated look.

Family life: you are the most obedient child of your parents. You respect your father and mother as your teachers. Married life may be difficult. You may divorce or have another marriage.

Ketu in Leo 13°07'35"
Ketu in Leo with Cancer ascendent
Ketu shapes the kind of a philosopher who propounds Utopian theories of social relationships, while grumbling that financial and social status is inferior to what it should be. Aspects from Jupiter to malefics like Ketu will often improve the results radically
Ketu in 2nd House
Ketu in the second house may make you conceited, or feel depraved. There is something in your feelings which makes you careful to watch out for yourself. There are conditions which cause you to worry about finances in general. The threat of government fines looms at times. You'll have a hard time speaking before many people, or they won't accept or understand what you're trying to say. Those who support you, may feel that they've gotten themselves on the wrong side of the fence. You may therefore adopt a sweet tone of voice, and by and by, having learned that it provokes less trouble from others, this carefulness and control over your speech could lead to success.
