The Sun represents the Father, God (masculine); personal brilliance and dramatic flair; success and achievement. Position in chart denotes “where you shine”, your major conscious focus in life.
In Vedic astrology the Sun is called Surya, or Ravi; and is considered to be a malefic due to its overly hot nature; malefic but also of a spiritual, truth-seeking nature (sattvic).
By transit or progression, the Sun usually acts as a trigger, releasing stored up energy in outer-planet (and slower moving) configuration.
Sign of its rulership: Leo. Sign of its exaltation: Aries.
Sign of it detriment: Aquarius (the sign opposite its rulership). Sign of its fall: Libra (the sign opposite its exaltation.)
Bija mantras: OM SUM ["soom"]; RAM; OM SAVITRE NAMAHA; OM SURYAYA NAMAHA; OM ADITYAYA NAMAHA; OM RAVAYE NAMAHA
Gemstone: Ruby, right ring finger, or garnet 3-5 carots
