EX: Libra sun 8th house Aries moon 2nd house Regarding self actualisation, personal identity (moon) and purpose (sun) and how its done, what would you say for these placements? 176 degrees between sun and moon therefore the phase is what? and how does this reveal how its done?

EX: Cancer in 9th house, sense of self through religion or philosophy. My chart observation: Cancer in 5th house = Creative expression and hobbies and what I enjoy contributing to sense of self. North node also present in 5th house under the sign Cancer, does this emphasis this as the north node is a point of focus in this life? Cancer Jupiter sextile Virgo Venus in 7th house, how does this aspect contribute/relate to sense of self? relationships??? How would you read these placements?

When trying to understand an individual's intrinsic desires and freedom requirements can it be assumed that by looking at the location of Mars, Aries & the ascendant (planets, aspects and house) also the ruler of ascendant (planet, house and sign) that this makes up the desires of that person? Ex: Aries 2nd house - desire for financial freedom and independence regarding resources, desire to be self sufficient? Ex 2: ascendant in Pisces, ruler Jupiter in 5th house, desire for freedom regarding creative and self expression? Ex 3: Moon in Aries second house opposition Sun in Libra 8th house, fear of entrapment and need for liberty from constricting relationships and fear of financial entrapment via relationship? Please let me know if I am barking up the wrong tree, open to lots of feedback.

Looking for confirmation on a chart observation. Aries 2nd house, moon in 2nd house, mars in 11th house, possibly what this could mean sexually is a tendency to move on quickly from sexual partners, friends with benefits could be a relevant experience, sexual nonconformity, potentially open relationships, eccentrics, not a very emotion-based person when it comes to sex, quick to the point, passionate and intense. Capricorn as the sign ruling mars, practical and detached emotionally in sexual encounters.
