I read somewhere that it is first the Ascendant sign that is important, then any planets conjunct it and then the ruler of the Asc,the sign that it is in and then the house position of the Asc ruler.Having the Asc in Cancer suggests a strongly "feeling" approach to life. You rely heavily on instincts and "gut" feel before making a move.
You can also seem like someone who is changeable, eccentric and a "maverick" in expressing themselves.
Do you have any planets conjunct the Asc? They add to the "feel" of your Asc. Pluto gives intensity whilst Venus denotes creativity.
Having the Moon as the chart ruler suggest a life that is centered around habits/ patterns/timing/ traditions and errands.
This is to establish a sense of security and consistency in one's life and is very important in regulating a sense of inner "control".
Moon is about inner well-being and balance. Also, the moon is about inner expression of feelings and emotions, the past, nurture and self soothing(or pacifying) of self.
The sign in which the Moon is in will denote what makes you feel secure, stable and "in touch" with yourself.
With the Moon in Leo,spending money on expensive clothes and "dolling" yourself up is not unusual.
Leo Moon people I know love to "strut". They like to show off what they have and if they happen to also be good-looking, my goodness, they can certainly put on a show.
They feel at their best when they look their best and other people stop to look at them.They also may be prone to loving the spotlight.
With Leo as the Moon sign position, I'd suggest that you also look into issues governing children, creativity, recreation, fun, lovers etc. All the things that Leo governs.
Lastly, with the ruler of the 1st house in the 2nd house, the affairs of the 2nd house take 1st preference.
Security, financial stability, "ownership" of things, self-esteem, self-sustenance, self-dependence etc. It very much lends many "Taurian" qualities in the way that you approach life and what you prioritize on.
But with Leo energy being very adverse to Taurus energy. The focus may be on "wearing" your wealth than accumulating it.
The focus is still on money, possesions and all the things that finacial freedom offers. But here, Leo Moon in 2nd makes you more accustomed to "living" that lifestyle instaed of having to be working towards it.
So, in this way, you may "wear"(1st house) your wealth(2nd) by exhibiting your expensive taste in clothes or flashy jewellery.
Or you may see a flamboyant lifestyle with cars, expensive jewellery, exotic trips and "Sex and the City" kinda living-very attractive to you.(this is Leo energy)
