Any planet other than the Moon occupies the 2nd house from the Sun (i.e., the sign immediately following the Sun's sign). Rahu and Ketu are excluded by most classical authorities.
General Effects
Vesi Yoga modifies the native's speech, wealth, and character according to the planet involved. A benefic planet (Jupiter, Venus, Mercury) in this position gives eloquence, prosperity, and noble character. A malefic (Saturn or Mars) can make the person bold and blunt but may bring financial volatility or harsh speech.
For Leo Ascendant

Remedies
For malefic Vesi, cultivate mindful speech and practice silence (mauna) one day per week. Recite Surya mantras at sunrise to harmonise the solar influence with the occupying planet.
