Personality & Nature
The Sun influences one’s ego, willpower and self-esteem. When strong, it makes the native confident, courageous, charismatic and ambitious. They often become leaders or attain authoritative positions. If the Sun is weak or afflicted, the person may suffer from self-doubt, lack of direction, ego issues, or a desire for constant recognition.
Career & Success
The Sun rules fields related to government, politics, administration, medicine, authority, defence and public leadership. People with a strong Sun perform well in positions of power, leadership and responsibility. A weak Sun leads to status issues, unstable career, or problems with superiors.
Health & Vitality
Being the giver of life force, the Sun governs heart, bones, eyes, and overall immunity. Benefic Sun ensures good energy and strong health. A malefic Sun causes fatigue, headaches, heat-related issues, eye problems or heart troubles, especially in middle age.
Relationship with Father & Society
The Sun represents father, elders and government. A strong Sun bestows respect and good relations with father and authority figures. A weak Sun can lead to distance, misunderstandings or karmic issues with father or government institutions.
Signs of Strong and Weak Sun
A strong Sun gives leadership qualities, discipline, ambition, confidence and success.
A weak Sun results in low self-esteem, fear, laziness, illnesses, poor reputation or ego clashes.
