Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are not used in Vedic astrology. When we obtain our horoscope, we need to look at the ascendant, the positions of the houses in the signs (how they influence each other), the positions of the planets in the houses and signs, as well as the interactions between the planets (if there is more than one planet in a house). In Vedic astrology, a house is called “bhava.”

The Ascendant is one of the most important indicators of a horoscope. It helps to reveal both positive and negative traits, understand how to develop oneself, and identify areas for improvement.
Ascendant in Aries
Aries must take the initiative into their own hands and not succumb to the influence of others. This is one of their karmic tasks. Even an Aries child should not be told what to do and what not to do. Aries loves to compete—this is also part of their karmic mission. Aries individuals do not compromise and have their own goals. Their weak point is impulsive decision-making; they often act first and think later. Their karmic task is to learn to think first and then act. The strong point of Aries is their ability to invent new things quickly and unexpectedly.
Aries must be brave but refrain from excessive assertiveness, rudeness, straightforwardness, and tactlessness. Arguing with them is futile; one can easily become their enemy. An Aries always needs to be the winner.
Karmic tasks include acting originally, being unlike anyone else, learning to remain calm when things do not go according to plan, and knowing when to be silent.
A life without adventures brings boredom to Aries. In relationships with the opposite sex, Aries loves to dominate and is not ready to submit. They need a calmer partner in life. Aries does not take criticism well, and pointing out their negative qualities is pointless. Those who wish to be with Aries should disregard their hot-tempered nature. Aries should learn to channel their passionate, creative energy into work and to be tactful and calm at home.
Second House in Aries
Such a person invests a lot of energy in making money but spends it impulsively. They tend to ignore the facts of reality, believing that happiness does not lie in money, but that having it is better than not having it. They can be stingy and may resort to trickery for material gain; from an early age, they learn the power of money. They will always lend money but struggle to repay loans. Material well-being comes to them later in life. Their intuition helps them navigate the stock market and protects them from dangerous deals. This person has excellent taste and is not picky about food if resources are limited.
Third House in Aries
Such a person brings a bustle to their environment. They tend to divide people into good and bad, easily making acquaintances. In tense situations, they can behave sharply. Enthusiasm is necessary for successful learning. They may have a poor memory but possess a fine intuition. They can guess other people’s thoughts and anticipate events. This person is restless, satisfied with their life, but sometimes exaggerates their problems. They need communication but try to take the leading role in interactions. Everything
