Don't worry this was a challenge for me - though I'd appreciate some thoughts. It came up in a Professional Astrologers Group on another site but it's one that presents a challenge to the Traditional Approach.
The link I'm including is to the original chart not to the group and that chart was not set up as a challenge. Also please ignore any advertising on the site, but the link does give you the opportunity to read a brief bio of the native.

The link was posted by someone who said that this chart validated Uranus, and could not really be satisfactorily interpreted by traditional methods. The Chart has Aquarius rising and Uranus in the first house. He took Uranus as the ruler of Aquarius and took Uranus as symbolising his unusual appearance.
I want to use this chart as my 'celebrity' for the Hellenistic Astrology thread - so I'll include a link there but this might be of interest to non-Hellenistic practitioners and I'd love for one of them to give some input in a modern sense.
So the challenge thrown out was that a traditional approach just couldn't pick up any of the sophistication of a modern one, especially here with Uranus not just on the Ascendant but ruling it.
