The Sun in Leo is in domicile, the planet's own home, and the tradition lists no other planet's rulership here. Leo is a masculine, fixed fire sign; the Sun is a masculine, day-team planet, so sect, gender and sign agree.
Leo is the fifth sign of the zodiac, a fixed fire sign with positive polarity, and the only sign the Sun governs in traditional astrology.

The Moon in Leo is in the Sun's home sign, a masculine, fixed fire sign. The tradition lists no domicile, exaltation, detriment or fall for the Moon there.
Leo is a fixed fire sign with positive polarity, the sign the Sun governs, and a Moon there sits in the Sun's home. Modern psychological astrology reads the emotional need here as warmth returned: to be noticed, appreciated and welcomed.

A Libra rising sign means Libra was crossing the eastern horizon at birth. The Ascendant moves through a sign about every two hours, so this needs a birth time. Whole-sign houses, where each sign is one house, make Libra the first house. Venus, the planet that rules Libra, is the lord of the Ascendant. Venus also rules Taurus, which falls in your eighth house. Libra is a masculine, cardinal air sign. It is the sign of the Sun's fall and Saturn's exaltation, so the dignity of two planets is at stake in the horizon's sign. Hellenistic astrologers treat the Ascendant's sign and its lord as a key pair. They ask where Venus is by sign and house, whether it holds dignity there, and which planets aspect it.

Reviewer's notes
Dignities, houses counts, genders and modalities matched the project's own dignity tables and Ptolemy/Valens. Sun's fall and Saturn's exaltation in Libra confirmed (Ptolemy I.19). Lord-of-the-Ascendant importance confirmed only in secondary sources (Astrology Podcast); softened 'first/main' to 'among the first/key'.

With Libra rising, Libra was crossing the eastern horizon at birth. The rising sign, or Ascendant, turns over about every two hours, so the value depends on birth time and place. Modern psychological astrology reads it as an approach to new situations. For Libra, a cardinal air sign, authors describe a courteous, even-handed and socially aware entrance, with a first impression of grace and tact. The tension named is accommodation: smoothing the exchange at the cost of stating a view. Hellenistic astrologers read a Libra Ascendant through Venus, its lord in their scheme, and through the planets aspecting the rising degree. They center the judgment on the lord and its aspects, while modern authors lean on the sign's own character to describe manner.

Reviewer's notes
Element, modality, ruler and Ascendant-concept claims confirmed in secondary references; the per-sign manner descriptions attributed to modern authors are tradition-level and not checked against Arroyo or Sasportas text. Removed the unsupported claim that Hellenistic astrologers give the sign little psychological weight.
