Another interesting point to remember. The inner planets, which include the sun, moon, Mercury, Mars, and Venus, travel fast through the zodiac, affecting humans on a more personal, intimate level. Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus, and Pluto pass across the zodiac in seven years or more, which explains why each generation can be defined by a specific movement or sensation (the Roaring Twenties, the Age of Aquarius, and so on).

The Sun’s Lessons
Open hearts, generous spirits, creative impulses, fun, and love are among the Sun’s gifts. It’s the astrological sign of life and identity, the shining self, hidden within the network of connections, ideas, and activities that takes up so much of our time. A customised birth chart can provide profound psychological insight into how the Sun and other planets affect who you are.
The Sun is life itself, and as such, it is unconstrained by personal history or the confines of one’s ego. While we normally connect with its characteristics based on the sign we were born under, it is truly about being fully aware of the current moment while still being inventive about the future. The Sun has a stronger connection to who we are becoming than it does to where we have been.
Playing is a great way to connect with the Sun’s energy. Our inner child is reconnected through innocent enjoyment without ambition or purpose. It’s a means of staying in the moment rather than getting caught up in our dreams for the future or regrets from the past. The ability to enjoy ourselves liberates the heart and activates the Sun’s creative force. It also makes giving and receiving love simpler.
In Vedic astrology, what does the Sun represent?
The Sun is extremely important in Vedic astrology. The sun is also the source of our existence. It is one of the most powerful and authoritative heavenly bodies because it lies at the center of the solar system. Sun is the father of the planetary system, according to Vedic literature.
In Vedic astrology, the Sun symbolizes authority, power, and ego. It also symbolizes self-confidence, pride, spirituality, and the soul. As a result, the Sun is the atmakaraka, the symbol of your soul. The only planets that can eclipse the Sun are Rahu and Ketu.
What characteristics does the Sun symbolize?
The parent, our ego, honors, prestige, renown, the heart, the eyes, general vigor, respect, and power are all represented by the Sun. The Sun is directly overhead in the 10th House, where he is at his most powerful. He’s also adept at the other Kendras, or Angles. Houses 1, 4, and 7 are the ones in question.
What happens if your Sun isn’t shining brightly?
If the sun dominates the first house, health issues such as heat, headaches, and pitta-related issues will arise. Eye problems and finances will be a problem if the Sun rules the 2nd or 12th house. If the sun controls the 7th house, it will lead to a breakup with one’s life partner.
How can you tell whether your Sun is powerful?
This sequence of experiments isn’t a perfect scientific measurement because that’s impossible. They’re merely a fun and easy approach to discover the most powerful influences in your birth chart. The orbs and scores for this and the Moon exam are higher than for the other planets.
Here’s how to put it to the test:
___ 15 points each for the Sun conjunct the Moon, Ascendant, or Midheaven; 10 points each for the square, trine, or opposite. (There are 10 orbs for conjunctions, 8 for oppositions, and 6 for trines in the Sun’s orbs.)
___ BONUS: Sun conjunct or opposite the Moon, and within three degrees of the North or South Node, 10 points, indicating that you were born during an eclipse.
___ Sun in minor aspect (4 points each) to Moon, Ascendant, Midheaven, or other planets (sextile, semisextile, septile, quincunx, quintile, semisquare, or sesquiquadrate).
4 points each for the Sun in minor aspect to the Moon, Ascendant, Midheaven, or other planets.
___ BONUS: 15 points for the Sun in Leo, and 10 points for the Moon, Ascendant, or Midheaven in Leo.
___ Add 2-5 points for any other relevant feature, such as Sun aspects to the nodes or possessing a Leo Node or Part of Fortune. Specify.
5 is part of a big formation like a stellium, T-square, or Grand Trine, and it’s a ____BONUS.
Add up all of the chart attributes that are applicable. What is the brightness of your Sun? To stand near you, would people need to wear dark glasses and apply sunscreen? Do you need to go to a tanning salon on a weekly basis?
Self-concept, identity, self-expression, self-worth, and self-confidence are all functions and issues of the Sun. The Sun is the center of our being, and the Sun’s sign, house, and aspects define who we are and what we’re capable ofin a nutshell, it’s our identity. If you characterized yourself as “I’m the kind of person who…,” you’d be listing your Sun’s characteristics. When the Sun is underemphasized or confronted with harsh elements, the person may become self-effacing and suffer from low self-esteem, a negative self-concept, or even self-hatred.
Characteristics of a powerful Sun: Blessed with Solar Power, this royal individual has a great desire to shine. Self-worth, self-development, self-expression, self-confidence or self-consciousness, self-obsession, and even selfishness are all stressed.
When the Sun is over-emphasized, a person might become egotistical, egocentric, overly demanding of attention, and a show-off. In the worst-case scenario, the individual may have a large ego and an insatiable desire to be acknowledged and appreciated, even to be the focus of attention.
Despite a good result on this exam, many of you will be perplexed by how UNSOLAR you feel. Here are a few reasons why you aren’t a normal Solar:
When a planet is conjunct the Sun, you can get a sense of the sign the planet rules. If Mars rules, you’re an Aries with a strong Sun; if Neptune rules, you’re a Pisces with a strong Sun, and so on. It’s still a powerful Sun; it simply looks different from the outside.
Because much energy and attention goes into the matters of that house, and they represent a key source of self-worth, the Sun’s house position can give you a flavor of the sign naturally connected with that house.
For example, a 4th house Sun is comparable to a Cancerian in that they are homebodies who are very attached to their families. However, depending on the sign, they may not be as moody or sensitive as Cancerians.
