Sun (Surya) represents your soul, vitality, ego and sense of authority. Its core keywords are leadership, confidence, willpower and individuality. As a karaka, it signifies father, government, status, health and the self. In the body, it governs the heart, bones, eyes and overall vitality.
Sun rules Leo. It reaches its peak strength (exaltation) in Aries and its weakest point (debilitation) in Libra.
You carry natural authority, radiate confidence and rise to positions of leadership and respect.
Self-doubt, a bruised ego or strained relations with father or authority can trouble you until you build inner confidence.
