Lagna in Aquarius 2°28'28"
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 '23 Dhanishtha-3'
The Star ruling your Ascendant or Moon is Dhanishtha.
Normally, you have a lean body with lengthy figure. In exceptional cases you may have a stout figure. You will be expert in all work you undertake. You have an extremely intelligent mind and all around knowledge. You do not like to cause any trouble to others. It has been seen that you have a religious spirit. You always like to live by your own caliber and effort. You dislike to express disagreement with others till the last moment. Most of us are probably aware of the elephant's revenge. That is, if any person or any animal cause trouble to the elephant, the elephant waits for an opportunity to bounce on them. In the same way you wait for an opportunity to pounce on others with whom you have a score to settle.
A number of horoscopes that I have examined reveal that most scientists and historians are born in this Nakshatra. Since there is an inherent talent of keeping secrets, you are quite suitable for secret service, or being a private secretary to senior executives. Whatever may be your academic background your intelligence is beyond question. In argument you are much ahead of others. Hence lawyers profession is the best for you. After age 24, there be progress in the earning field. Since you will be engaged in the profession or trade where you have to trust others, you should be very careful before putting trust in others. In the family circle you will be the uppermost administrator. Your relatives will cause a lot of embarrassment and problems. You are more inclined to brothers and sisters. You will have ample inherited property subject to the placement of planets in beneficial position. You cannot have much benefit from in-laws. But this drawback will be nullified due to the presence of the good qualities of your spouse. Any improvement in the financial field will be only after marriage.
Your health may not be so good at times. But even then you will not care about it. It is only when the illness reaches the peak you start finding a remedy. Slightest improvement out of the severest disease will drag you to the work field. You are prone to coughs, anemia etc. However, you will not be in a prolonged state of illness.
Sun in Capricorn 5°36'19"
This brings the following general characteristics, which get modified by specific aspects and other placements in your chart: This is average or below average of help to the overall life, causing interest in low class persons, greed, working in low jobs, timidity, lacking relatives, being fickle, a wandering mentality and weakness. You are endowed with various deeds, will lose everything due to conflicts with your relatives and will be a voracious eater.
Sun in Capricorn with Aquarius ascendent
Your spouse may have secret relations with others and may be inimical towards you at times.
When the Sun occupies this sign, you lose your identity. You may never marry. Your craving to reach the highest social status and the deepest occult understanding makes you almost a social outcast; your life-path often arouses great protest from other people.
Sun in House 12
You are interested in the real essence of manifestation. Having withdrawn from the objective plane of existence, the soul dwells in subjective reality. It produces spiritual forces strong enough to counteract or restrict development along purely materialistic lines. Since one's father represents the creative energy in man and thus leads to the furtherance of manifested creation, the Sun (father) in the twelfth is not favorable for your biological father, nor do you spend your vital energy in creative channels.
You withdraw from the path of going forth, on which you get involved in materiality. You are not interested in money, marriage, social status, and so on. Some may therefore consider you anti-social.
You are free from physical pain, but eye troubles are indicated. You are victorious in competition, self-controlled and successful in everything you lay your hand on including obscure or unpopular occupations.
This placement denotes trouble from uncle who may meet danger in journey. Your eyes and uncle are hard hit. Unexpected loss of wealth or a strange sickness may be on the way.
You possess a mercurial temperament, are convert and heretic, scared of leaders and thieves, anti-social and irreligious. You are blessed with a son and fortitude. You may be physically deformed, are a wanderer, foolish, sexy, debauch, and cruel.

(Note-: The Moon in Gemini ascending, gives the qualities of Mercury to the person in general.) The prominent nose will make the subject look beautiful. As Mercury is a eunuch, the person will make friendship with neuters or will enjoy sexual pleasures with barren partners. Worldly pleasures will be more important than spiritual pursuits. People born under this sign may be gifted speakers.
Moon in Gemini with Aquarius ascendent
Troubles in education arise. It's not your mental abilities, but circumstances that cut short educational opportunities. Your children may not be so helpful, even though you may have a number of them.
Moon in House 5
This placement is basically very good. It makes you a tranquil and balanced person at your basis. You will be content, and blessed with general happiness from having received all the necessities of life. This Moon gives you interest in getting your life together more so than making a novel contribution to the society at large. It gives you interest in things like poetry, chemistry, medicine and social work.
It says that the children's health will not be robust and it leans towards having girls rather than boys. Moon in the 5th stands for promising children and it makes your mind fundamentally good.
Possible avenues of gain indicated are Moon-related such as diamonds, land, trade, money lending, and many other sources. The 5th house stands for children, enterprise, speculations, gains, love affairs, and other things, and so you will find that your mind gravitates to these things. This also gives you patience, gentleness, good looks, health and noble parents.
Your Moon makes you the timid learned type. You will most likely earn through your learning, be involved in research, though clothes and food are good too. This Moon bodes well for the attainments of your children. It is a good indication that at some point in life you will get blessings. It indicates that you will gain from your spouse. It bodes well for being a money lender by trade. It indicates a good spouse, but also multiple spouses in some way, and a generous streak, especially in regards to feeding the needy.
Moon in Lunar Mansion '6 Ardra-3'
Your Ascendant or Moonstar is Ardra.
There may be variations in physical structure, from the slim and short structure to fat and lengthy structure. Character and general events: you will undertake any work entrusted to you in a responsible manner. In the public meetings you will create an atmosphere of humor and keep everybody attracted to you. You will have intuitive perception. You may be a good psychologist. Your dealings with friends and relatives will be very cordial. You may be thankless to the persons who have given you help. You may not have a constant type of behavior.
Education, sources of earning/profession: you have the capacity to acquire and keep knowledge of almost all subjects. However, in spite of these good qualities you cannot attain much fame or reward out of such knowledge. It is advisable that you must meditate regularly. If you do so, you can overcome the above inherent affliction. Since you may be over sincere in work and to other persons, even the slightest problem which may be confronted could land you into mental agony. However, even during the time of extreme hardships both financial and mental, you can keep your head cool, and behave in a most respectable and attractive manner. Because of this quality, you will be very much involved in others hearts. You will not stick to one line of work, you may enjoy working many different jobs at a time. Even when you come to know that the line of action or thought which you have taken is the correct approach, you will not hesitate to respect others if their opinions differ. In the case of research work on any particular line, you will be successful. In the business field you will attain much success. It has been noticed that most of the selfless social workers are born with the Moon under this star. You have the capacity to successfully undertake any number of jobs at a time. Complete perfection in all the fields can also be obtained. In the case of travel for a specific job, you will oversee other connected work which can be carried out simultaneously. Normally, you will earn your livelihood away from your home and family. In other words you may be settled in foreign places. The period between 32 years and 42 years of age will be the golden period for you. You may be employed in transport, shipping, communication departments or industries. You may also earn as a book seller or finance broker.
Family life: your marriage may be delayed. In case marriage takes place early you feel compelled to live separately from the family, either due to difference of opinion between the couple or due to other circumstances beyond your control. You may have to face several inherent problems of life. But you will not reflect your problems outwardly. When the marriage takes place at a late stage, your married life will be good.

Mercury in Capricorn 16°24'55"
In your thinking or deeper consciousness, you know the sorrows and grief of the common people. You understand the plight of the working class, and probably your Karma is such, that you will live your life in that way or at least out of sympathy and compassion you will be coming for that consciousness, defending it and fighting for it.
Mercury in Capricorn with Aquarius ascendent
You may make an original contribution in the field of education. Your fame will be extensive, but you will wander from place to place, often without adequate financial support.
Mercury in House 12
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. In this state, the occupancy of the twelfth by Mercury can be effective whether the soul is withdrawing from the path of materialization, or whether it is pursuing it. 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.

You are deprived of a harmonious family life. You live extravagantly and dissipate your energy in useless activities, but emotional and sensual satisfaction elude you.
Venus in House 12
Venus produces a material impulse. It leads you towards sensual gratification and involvement in unethical relationships which bind the soul strongly in chains of materialization. One may remember that Venus is the advisor to the demons who command the anti-devic (godly) forces. 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).

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. You try to restrain the presence of what you see as 'typical happy home life' in yourself. You try to make it more 'true' and 'more focused on higher principles'.

This Saturn denotes difficulties and trouble through property, legacy or mines. Acquisitiveness and denial of worldly success are indicated, as well as contrary domestic and family affairs. There will be little success against heavy odds and responsibilities without reward. You have a strong tendency towards asceticism at the close of life and a general lack of interest in worldly affairs.

A tendency towards gloom, sorrow, laziness, strife and dispute are some of the more negative personal traits. You feel powerless at times. Some type of heart problem may appear. Though you may be good at heart, there is much karmic retribution coming that you can't seem to control and which causes serious fallout with others, then resulting in sorrow. Following a regulated, humble, religious life will counter this.

Rahu, being a karmic planet, creates much unhappiness in the seventh house. Whether alone or in association with any other planet, its impact is sorrowful. You fall into relationships with partners who are very often undesirable, quarrelsome, extravagant, and inflexible; you either suffer from genito-urinary troubles or are dishonorable. Very often you have to face separation, divorce, or death of the marriage partner.
You are fond of traveling, of changing your job, and of cultivating new associations-all with the objective of securing something for personal satisfaction. You are skillful and will confer fame and prosperity. Trouble through spouse, body aches, much enmity and loss through trade are indicated. There might be two marriages and your spouse should be careful of infections in generative organs.

However, all this will be greatly modified through other placements in the chart.
On the positive side, the person might also be detached and have a tendency to be spiritual. A prominent Ketu can give yogic aspects to the personality, as it is the planet of the ascetic. Generally, Ketu in the Ascendant denotes some life long issue in finding the personal identity and an overall tendency to be somewhat ungrounded or feeling held back in issues of material progress in life. Don't expect a fast career, but then again, you are probably not an ambitious personality anyways...
