When exalted Moon is placed in the fifth house in a horoscope, Capricorn rises in the ascendant. Exalted Moon is benefic in the fifth house in most cases though it may turn malefic in some cases. This generally happens when Moon is afflicted by malefic planets, such as through conjunction and/or aspects. As the number of malefic planets and the strengths of such planets increase, Moon may become more malefic.
If exalted Moon is afflicted by two or more than two malefic planets in the fifth house, it may turn significantly or highly malefic. Apart from that, the overall theme of horoscope having such exalted Moon can also turn it malefic in some cases, when such theme is highly malefic. The concept of benefic planets turning malefic due to influences of malefic planets has been explained in Manglik Dosh section of the book ‘Match Making and Manglik Dosh (Revised Edition)’.

Such benefic exalted Moon can bless the native with good results related to mother, love life, children, marriage, husband, wife, spiritual growth, creativity, profession, fame and several other good results, depending on his overall horoscope. Benefic exalted Moon in the fifth house can especially prove good for marriage and children. Moon rules the seventh house in horoscopes with Capricorn ascendant and this house deals with marriage. The fifth house deals with love life and children among other things. Hence the placement of exalted Moon in the fifth house can especially prove good for marriage and children.
Such benefic exalted Moon can bless the native with a wide variety of good results through marriage, depending on his overall horoscope.

If a benefic combination of Mars and Rahu is placed in the tenth house in Libra, Ketu is placed in the fourth house in Aries and Saturn is placed in the ninth house in Virgo, the equation may improve. The native may get married to a very rich woman and he may become a billionaire after marriage. Depending on the finer factors and running times, such money may come through native’s wife or he may witness wonderful success in his profession. Such native may become a billionaire within some years of his marriage, provided the finer factors and running times are supportive.
Taking another example, suppose benefic exalted Moon is placed in the fifth house of a horoscope in Taurus along with Venus. In this case, the native may get marriage to a woman who may be a successful businesswoman or she may be a celebrity dealing in some creative field. For instance, if exalted Jupiter is placed in the seventh house in Cancer and benefic Mars is placed in the second house in Aquarius, the native may get married to a woman who may be an actor or singer.
Considering another variation, suppose a benefic combination of exalted Moon and Venus is placed in the fifth house of a horoscope in Taurus. Benefic Mars is placed in the fourth house in Aries, benefic Saturn is placed in the seventh house in Cancer and a combination of Sun and Mercury is placed in the sixth house in Gemini. In this case, the native may get married to a woman who may run a business or she may be a politician.
