SUN IS THE MOST POWERFUL GRAH I DONT USE THE WORD PALNET AS IT IS MISLEADING FOLLOWED BY MOON , VENUS, JUPITER,BUDH,MARS AND SATURN IN DESCENDING ORDER.SATURN AND BUDH ARE SHUDRA GRAH AND MANGAL THOUGH WEAKER THAN BUDH IS A KSHATRIYA GRAH. SUN REPRESENTS THE FATHER, GOVERNMENT, POLITICAL KNOWLEDGE AND KARKA OF 1ST,5TH (WESTERN ASTROLOGY) AND NINTH HOUSE. STRONG SUN REPRESENTS HIGH RANK IN GOVERNMENT (NOT GOVERNMENT JOBS SATURN IS KARKA OF ALL HIERARCHICAL JOBS JUPITER ON THE OTHER HAND IS KARKA HIGH GOVERNMENT JOBS LIKE I.A.S,I.F.S ETC). SUN WHEREVER PRESENT REPRESENT LEADER .IT ALSO REPRESENTS YOUR GURU
IT IS YOUR EGO WITH WHICH YOU UNITE WITH THE WORLD AND YOURSELF. IT IS ALL ABOUT INDIVIDUALISM AND FIGHT (ARIES) FOR THE SELF AS OPPOSED TO GROUP/TEAM (LIBRA). THEREFORE SUN IS EXALTED IN ARIES AND DEBILITATED IN LIBRA. PLANETS IN LEO ALSO TEND TO BEHAVE WITH SUN LIKE AURA. STRONG SUN MAKES A PERSON KING, GIVES WARMTH AND CHARISMA IN NATURE.PERFECTIONIST TENDENCY, RIGHT AND POLITICAL VALUES, STRONG MORALITY AND SENSE OF DHARMA . PERSON EXCELS IN FIELD SUN IS LOCATED IF IN OWN OR FRIENDLY SIGN WHILE WEAK SUN MAKES A PERSON UNDERACHIEVER FOR THAT PARTICULAR SIGN BUT BOASTFUL OF WHATEVER LITTLE ACHIEVEMENT HE MAKES.
SUN AND LEO REPRESENT FIRE BY NATURE AND SUN IS VERY POWERFUL IN LEO, ARIES AND SAGITTARIUS AND ALSO FRIENDLY WITH MARS,JUPITER AND MOON . WHY
IS IT BEING FRIENDLY WITH MOON (WATER) IS A MATTER OF DEBATE BUT AN ELEMENT OF DUALISM IS INHERENT HERE. CONSIDERED SUN AND MOON TO BE GUARDIAN OF ALL (SATTVIK AND RAJSIK TATVA). THOUGH SUN AND MOON CAN BE TAMSIK ALSO BY CONJUGATION WITH SATURN AND RAHU OR IN RAKSHASA GANA . BUT FOR ALL PRACTICAL PURPOSES AS THEIR PURPOSE IS TO BRING TO LIGHT (KNOWLEDGE) ALL LIVING BEINGS SO THEY ARE CONSIDERED FRIENDS.
SUN IS RULER OF EYES, SPINAL CORD,WHEAT, JAGGERY ,PINK COLOUR, RUBY , EAST DIRECTION , COPPER AND ASTROLOGY A PHRASE FROM SURYA CHALISA 'NAVALKISHORE JYOTISHI DHARIEN TUMHARA DHAYAN '. SUN REPRESENTS THE 'I' IN YOU. IT REPRESENTS YOUR FATHER AND RELATION WITH HIM , YOUR RESPECT AT WORK PLACE AND YOUR LEADERSHIP ABILITY.IT REPRESENTS YOUR SOUL AND LONGEVITY ,CELEBRITY STATUS AND POPULARITY IN GATHERINGS.
IT IS PITTA KARAKA AND REPRESENTS AILMENTS OF EXCESS FIRE ,PITTA DOSHA. ITS RASHI IS LEO AND TO APPEASE A MALEFIC SUN DONATION OF THINGS IT RULES AS ABOVE SHALL BE CONSIDERED.
