Lagna in Taurus 24°14'53"
Taurus in the Ascendant bestows a pleasing face, a small thick neck, plump thighs, broad shoulders and a well-built muscular body. Amiable by temperament, artistic in nature, libidinous in character, you can be categorized as essentially materialistic. Fond of luxury, favoring romance, but tending to cultivate bad company. Self-respecting and happy, mostly in the middle and latter portions of life.
Yogakaraka Saturn, although owning the 9th and 10th house, produces a Yoga which is hard to collect on. It's a Yoga, but a difficult one to fully realize, depending on the placement of Saturn in the chart. Venus ruled periods should be good for money. Mars ruled periods produce financial prosperity, Jupiter periods are mixed. You like to win, will have the tendency of gathering wealth right from youth, will have a broad and strong forehead, nose, cheeks and lips, be industrious, fortunate, liberal, be devoted to your parents, will have many expenses, be very short tempered, phlegmatic and windy in humor, be the parent of (many) daughters, will insult your own people, be not very religious, be interested in affairs for romance, fickle-minded, fond of food and drinks and endowed with various kinds of clothes and ornaments. These are general tendencies, caused by the Ascendant sign, subject to great modification by the entire horoscope.
Lagna in Lunar Mansion '5 Mrigashira-1'
The star ruling your Moon or Ascendant is Mrigashira.
You will have a beautiful and tall body, moderate complexion, thin legs and long arms. There is a peculiar tendency seen in you: you have a doubting nature, and are always suspicious of everything. You are very sincere in your dealings with others and you expect the same reciprocal sincerity from others which you normally do not get. Because of your sincere nature, others find it pleasant to deal with you.
But a word of precaution is necessary here; you have to be very careful while dealing with friends and relatives and also in any partnership business, as you may be cheated. Blind trust put on others will quite often lead you into frustration and repentance. You have a knack to deal with even those who ditch you. You have natural initiative, awareness, brilliancy of mind, eagerness and active agility, but as a result of your affectionate regard for others, you are buffeted by both circumstances and people.
You are a simpleton. You prefer a life of simplicity and principles. You always express impartial and sincere opinions. You can be impatient to the point of intolerance, when confronted with prejudice, judgment or action by others. While you express to respect and adopt others, it is never brought into your personal life. You act according to your own sweet will.
Outwardly, you express to the public, that you are courageous and will not hesitate to do anything which requires extreme courage, whereas you are an inborn coward. You will not have peace of mind and get irritated even on small matters. Your life up to 32 years of age will be full of trial and errors and would appear to be like a lost boat in the center of the ocean, i.e. the question of where to go, how to go and why to go will permanently rampage your mind without any conclusion. From your 32nd age onwards, life will start settling down to the maximum satisfaction provided other planetary positions are good.
You will have good education. You are a very good financial adviser. You advise others to curb the spending, but you cannot control the expenditure and at last find yourself in extreme economic conflict. You achieve success in life, including business if engaged, after the age of 32 years. Till that time you have to face several ups and downs. You often begin projects, rather than finishing the tediously routine tasks at hand. It is mainly due to percipience rather than weakness and above all your ability to understand the possibility of success or no success of a project in hand, discard it immediately and replace it with another which is more viable. In other words, you cannot undertake any permanent or continuing nature of work.
In some cases, it has been noticed that you have the capacity to undertake any sort of job but you become frustrated. This drawback is attributable to the nature of the very Nakshatra you are born.
The period between 33 years and 50 years will be a period of full of strength and activities followed with utmost satisfaction. During this period, you will achieve the benefits unexpectedly. But whatever you will be earning during this period, will be wasted later on due to your own fault.
No benefit will be derived from siblings. Siblings will not only cause troubles and problems, but also maintain extreme enmity so as to harm you. Your sincere love and affection will not have any effect on relatives. In other words, you are mistaken absolutely for no fault of your own.
Your spouse may not keep good health. Moreover, your married life is not cordial, mainly due to differences of opinion on silly matters, and the adamant nature of your spouse. In some cases, it is seen that the reason for the disharmony between you is mainly due to the better occupation in life by one of you, and the consequent inferiority complex.
You have to face ill-health during your childhood. Frequent constipation, ultimately leading to stomach disorder, cuts and injuries, and pains in the shoulders near collarbone are some of the physical problems you may have to deal with.

Mars in House 9
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 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.
