Makara nature
Disciplined, patient and ambitious in a slow, steady way; takes duty seriously. Can lean towards reserve and over-work.
Classical tendencies of the Moon in Makara — the mind and feelings, not fate. Your Lagna, the other planets and the running dasha change the picture; the free kundli shows all of them.
