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.

Pisces rising places Pisces on the eastern horizon at birth, and the Ascendant changes sign about every two hours, so a birth time is required. In whole-sign houses, where each sign is one house, Pisces is the first house. Jupiter, Pisces's traditional ruler, is the lord of the Ascendant; modern astrologers add Neptune, which this block leaves out. Jupiter also rules Sagittarius, in the tenth house. Pisces is a feminine, mutable water sign, and Venus is exalted there while Mercury is in fall and in detriment, a concept the tradition names explicitly only late. Jupiter is a benefic and belongs to the day team, a grouping called sect that sorts planets by day and night charts. Hellenistic astrologers therefore look at where Jupiter is by sign and house, and whether the chart was born by day, when Jupiter is in sect.
A note on “detriment”: the early Hellenistic texts note a planet opposite its own sign without naming it. The term is defined only in late and medieval sources, and scholars disagree on whether the idea was implicit earlier.

Reviewer's notes
Dignities, houses counts, genders and modalities matched the project's own dignity tables and Ptolemy/Valens. Added a note that detriment is a late-named concept. Mercury's fall and Venus's exaltation in Pisces confirmed (Ptolemy I.19). Lord-of-the-Ascendant importance confirmed only in secondary sources (Astrology Podcast); softened 'first/main' to 'among the first/key'.

Pisces on the Ascendant records Pisces on the eastern horizon at birth. The Ascendant, or rising sign, changes about every two hours and depends on birth time and place. Modern psychological astrology reads it as the way a person enters situations. For Pisces, a mutable water sign, authors describe a receptive, adaptable and gentle approach, with a first impression of softness and openness to mood. The tension named is blurred boundaries: taking on the tone of whoever is present. Hellenistic astrologers read this Ascendant through Jupiter, its traditional lord, while modern astrology adds Neptune. They judge the placement by the rank by sign and sect (day or night chart) of that lord, a method centered on technique more than 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. Softened "does not describe manner at all".
