When a benefic combination of combust Moon and Sun is placed in the first house of a horoscope in the sign of Cancer, the results given by this combination are likely to be controlled by Moon and not by Sun. This is due to the fact that Moon is the planetary lord of the sign of Cancer and hence it gains very good strength when placed in the sign of Cancer. Though Sun may also have good strength when placed in the sign of Cancer, its strength may still not be a match for that of Moon. Apart from this, when combust Moon is placed in the first house of a horoscope in Cancer, the sign Cancer ruled by Moon falls in the first house of such horoscope and hence Cancer becomes the ascendant of such horoscope due to which, Moon being the ruler of the sign Cancer becomes the lord of ascendant in such horoscope. Since the placement of the lord of ascendant in the house of ascendant itself may provide more strength to such lord of ascendant, Moon may gain additional strength by virtue of being placed in the first house of a horoscope, when it is the lord of ascendant in such horoscope.
