Sun represents Lord Vishnu. He is the giver, I mean he gives to everyone without discriminating whether the person is rich or poor, saint or a dacoit. He is impartial. All celestial planets revolve around sun. Earth depends on Sun for both light and temperature. Sun represents soul in the human body. Sun also represents government, power and authority.
Sun produces great results if placed in 1st to 5th house and 9th to 12th house. In Houses 6th to 8th, it does not produce very good results. Moon, Jupiter and Mars are friends of Sun. Venus, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu are enemies of Sun. Mercury is the assistant of Sun. First house is the Pukka (permanent) House of Sun and Sun is exalted in 1st House. In 7th House Sun is debilitated. Mars in 6th House and Ketu in 1st House ensures that Sun gives results of exalted planet. If Sun is exalted or placed in good houses the native is bound to prosper and succeed in life.
Sun gives adverse effects relating to the things pertaining to the house in which it is placed. If sun is in 1st House, it will give the native illnesses, if Sun is in 2nd House it will affect the family adversely. If Sun is in 6th House it would be detrimental to sisters and daughters of the native. If Sun is in 7th House it will create problems in married life. Sun in 8th House will save the native from death during critical illness. Sun in 9th House destroys the comforts of fore-fathers and perhaps deprive the native of their properties. Sun in 10th House affects health of the native’s father adversely. Sun in 11th house increases the native’s income manifold only if the native does not increase the power of Saturn by consuming meat, eggs and liquor. Sun in 12th House gives the native sleep related problems.
Sun will not be able to harm its enemy Venus in case it is aspected by Saturn as Venus and Saturn are good friends. However, if Sun is aspecting Saturn then Sun will not be afraid of Saturn and Sun will destroy its enemy Venus completely.
