Quite often a regular attendant at church services and a supporter of church and religious activities.  Withal, he is possessed of the qualities which make for success in the material world, and has the ability to rise in position and to command the respect of his associates. He will fill a position of executive requirements and be admired and respected by his immediate family." ~~ Shil-Ponde. (1939). Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra. p 82 reading for Ashlesha nakshatra Moon for Katie Holmes: "... this person is careless and unclean about herself and the manner in which she dresses. She is not good-looking but indeed rather homely. She is distinguished by some disfigurement on face of body and is rather miserable and unhappy.  She has a secretive and rather bitter nature and is somewhat harsh and unkind in her dealings with others where opportunity presents itself.  If she cultivated kindness and tact, her shortcomings might be forgotten by those with whom she comes in contract. But her attitude and appearance are not conducive to popularity." ~~ Shil-Ponde. (1939).
