Sun in Fourth House

The Sun symbolizes your essential self, ego, father, right eye, will power, individuality, vitality, government and desire for power. More than any other planet, it represents who you are. It also symbolizes men in general.

4th House represents (Sukha Bhava): mother, all fixed assets- real estate, home, vehicles-cars, degrees-such as masters or doctorates, happiness-state of mind, endings, conditions at the end of life, passions, emotions, the masses, matters of the heart, security, past, heredity and genes, fear of security being threatened, things that are permanent or lasting forever, the soul, land and farming, breast.

In one sense this is a very unfortunate position because it deprives the person of the help of the solar influence during the major portion of life, which is on that account a constant uphill struggle, but as the Fourth House rules the latter part of life it is always a consolation to know that the declining years will be brightened by the Sun of success. That should make the burdens lighter to bear.

You’re intuitive and introverted, with a strong sense of self, a close tie to your ancestors, and an interest in the past. Home and family are of primary importance. Finding your roots is essential to your sense of self.

Unhappy, handsome, cruel, squanders ancestral wealth, unhappiness from relations, fond of occult sciences, no conveyances.

If the Sun is in the fourth house, the native will have defective limbs, he will be proud, will be opposed to the public and will be hot constitutionally. In the 32nd year of his life he will get congenial environments. He will then become respected and successful, will be learned, attain a high position and will become valorous. He will not, however, be well off financially. If the lord of 4th house is strong (by being exalted) or is in his own sign and is posited in a quadrant (Kendra) or trine (trikona house namely 1,5 or 9), he will acquire high class conveyances. If the lord of the 4th is associated with or aspected by a malefic or is placed in a bad house (3, 6,8 or 12), the native will have to do with a low type of conveyance. He will have no land of his own and will live in other people's houses.

Brihat Jatak- The person concerned will have no happiness and will be troubled in mind.

Phaldeepika- The native will be unhappy, without friends and relations and any land or house. He will also lose his paternal property.

Mansagari- The native will be very sociable, soft hearted, expert in vocal and instrumental music, conqueror, will enjoy company of his wife and wealth and will be liked by the king.

Saravali- The native will be unhappy, without wealth and conveyances, paternal house. He will squander away what he has and will be in the service of a wicked king.

Chamatkar Chintamani- The native will always remain away from his native place. He will be defeated by his enemy and will have no peace of mind.

Sun in Third House

The Sun symbolizes your essential self, ego, father, right eye, will power, individuality, vitality, government and desire for power. More than any other planet, it represents who you are. It also symbolizes men in general.

Third House represents Courage, life force, arts of all kinds-theater, directors, painting, drawing, music, writing, sports, travel, siblings-especially younger siblings, sibling rivalry, lower education, hobbies, success through own efforts, adventures, initiative, motivation, competition, voice, all forms of communication, sales, hearing in general and the right ear in particular, father in law, hands, shoulders arms, and lungs

Curious and observant, you collect information and communicate with ease, both in speech and in writing. Travel and siblings play important roles in your life.

This position favors travel and makes the person bright and observing, eager to investigate conditions and things, for it imparts a scientific turn to the mind. It is a good position for writers as it helps to bring them to public notice and favor.

Brave, famous, gain respect in government, poet, no happiness from brothers and relations, wealthy.

It is an accepted principle of Hindu Astrology that malefics in upchaya houses, namely 3,6 10 and 11 give beneficial results. But according to the learned author while the Sun will make the native valourous and wealthy, he will destroy brothers particularly when he is in association with a malefic when he will also destroy the family. The third house being second to the second house (house of family) becomes a marakasthana for the family and malefic influence on the third house will cause destruction of the family. It is said that if the Sun is in association with a malefic, the native will have two mothers. The third house being 12th to the 4th house, it will be the house of loss for the 4th house (house of mother). Hence it is likely that the native's mother will die and his father after remarriage will provide him with another mother. Benefic influences on the Sun, the third house and the lord of the third house will not only enhance prosperity of the family and brothers who will also be long lived, but such a disposition will also make the native wealthy and happy. 

If the Sun is associated with benefics, the ninth house (house of bhagya) will be benefically affected by beneficial aspects from the third house. If the Sun is aspected by benefics, this aspect will come mostly from theninth house. Thus the ninth will give favourable results enabling the native to get name, fame and wealth. The Sun being a planet of vitality will add to the signification of valour and make the native valourous and courageous but being a cruel planet, the Sun will make the native indulge in cruelty.

Brihat Jatak- The person concerned will possess a goodintellect and great strength.

Phaldeepika- The native will be of strength, valorous, wealthy and generous but he will be inimical towards his relations.

Mansagari- The native will have no brothers. He will do good to his friends and will have wife and children. He will be wealthy, patient, of forgiving nature and will be liked by women.

Saravali- The native will be valourous, full of strength, respected, good looking, learned and conqueror of enemies.

Chamatkar Chintamani- The native will be full of valour. He suffers on account of his real brothers. He goes on pilgrimages and always conquers his enemies in the battle field. He is provided with comforts by the king.

Sun in Second House

The Sun symbolizes your essential self, ego, father, right eye, will power, individuality, vitality, government and desire for power. More than any other planet, it represents who you are. It also symbolizes men in general.

Second House represents early childhood, domestic life, voice, speech, food or substances ingested, drinking habits, education, wealth, money, face, teeth, neck, vision in general, right eye in particular.

You’re practical, persistent, interested in money, and skilled at judging the value of things. Your possessions reflect your deeper values. Achieving financial stability gives you great satisfaction.

This shows the person will find favor with people in a position to further his material prosperity and will by their help gain a comfortable living, but it also gives a tendency to squander money on the principle that “what comes easy goes easy.” Unless this trait be curbed it may bring about financial stringency, for it is not so much what we earn that counts as what we spend. We shall be poor with an income of a million if we spend two.

Mouth troubles, wealthy, fortunate, quarrelsome, poor eyesight, dental troubles, troubles from government, family unhappiness.

If the Sun is in the second house, the native will suffer from diseases of the mouth. In his 25th year he will incur wrath of Government and as a consequence will suffer loss of wealth. This will not happen if the Sun is in Aries (that is, exalted) or in Leo (own sign). If Sun is associated with a malefic, the native will get diseases of the eye, he will have little knowledge of ancient scriptures (Shastras) and will remain in ill health. If the Sun is aspected by benefics the native will be protected from the above evil effects and will become wealthy. 

If the Sun is with Mercury the native will stammer in speech. If the lord of the second house is posited in his sign of exaltation, the native will talk succinctly and clearly, will have knowledge of ancient scriptures, will be learned, will enjoy good eye sight. This disposition will cause Rajayoga as a result of which native will acquire name, fame and wealth.

The view of the other important classical tests in regard to effects of the Sun in the second house are given below:-

Brihat Jatak-The person concerned will be immensely rich but will be deprived of his wealth by a king and will suffer diseases in the face.

Phaldeepika-The person concerned will be devoid of learning, modesty and wealth. He will have defect in his speech.

Saravali-The native will possess cattle and servants. He will suffer from disease of the mouth. He will be bereft of fame and comforts. He will acquire wealth from the king or the thieves by questionable means.

Chamatkar Chintamani-The native will be learned. He will possess cows, horses and elephants. He will incur expenditure on good causes. He will quarrel with members of his family on account of his wife. All his efforts to acquire wealth will go in vain.

Sun in First House

The Sun represents your essential self, ego, father, right eye, will power, individuality, vitality, government and desire for power. More than any other planet, it represents who you are. It also symbolizes men in general.

First House represents Physical body, stature if body, limbs of the body, constitution, ego, personality, appearance, self, character, entrance into the world. This is the window how others look upon us.

The Sun is the source of vitality. The First House signifies our constitutional condition and the home of our childhood, hence the Sun well aspected in the First House adds to the vitality of the rising sign and augments the recuperative powers. It brightens life during the days of childhood and stabilizes the nature, making the person more cheerful and companionable, ambitious to succeed in life, courageous in overcoming obstacles. The outlook on life is joyful and optimistic, hence the chances of success are increased. People with the Sun in this position love to lead and exercise authority over others; they are very jealous of the esteem of the community, upright and honest in their dealings.

When the Sun is afflicted in the First House it lowers the vitality, makes the person timid and vacillating, lacking in courage and ambition; hence the chances of a successful life are slim unless many aspects are good, thus modifying this condition.

You’re active, enterprising, and proud of your accomplishments. Your strong personality enables you to assert yourself in a natural, dignified way. This placement indicates leadership potential and success that comes about through your own efforts.

If the Sun is posited in the First House or Ascendant, the native will enjoy good health. He will be of bilious constitution and will suffer from diseases of the eye. He will be wise and of good conduct. He will have acidic stomach and will be bereft of knowledge and sense. He will be highly intelligent, will speak less, and will wander away from his native place. He will be happy. 

If the Sun is in Aries (that is in his sign of exaltation), the native will get name and fame. If such Sun is aspected by benefics, the native will become highly learned. If the Sun is in debilitation (that is, in the sign Libra), the native will be dignified. He will, however, be devoid of learning, and power and be blind. These ill effects will not be felt, if the Sun is aspected by benefics (Jupiter or Venus). If the Sun be in Leo, or Leo Navamsha, the native will acquire lordship over some territory.

The Sun in Cancer as ascendant is said to cause boils in the body. The ascendant represents body of the native and Cancer being a watery sign, the hot effect of the Sun is likely to bring about such troubles. In Pisces the Sun makes the native subservient to women. The only reason for this can be the placement of the Sun in a female and dual sign in which he perhaps loses his domineering faculty.

When the Sun is in Virgo in the ascendant the native will have only daughters and will lose his wife. When Virgo is ascendant, the Sun will be lord of 12th house, that is, the house sixth to 7th (house of wife). The aspect of the unfavourable 12th lord on the 7th house is likely to cause the loss of wife. Virgo being a female sign when containing the Sun is likely to give only daughters. It is also believed that Virgo natives generally get more daughters than sons. For the interest of readers we give below in brief the views given in respect of the Sun's position in the ascendant, by other recognised classical texts:-

Brihat Jatak- If the Sun occupies the 1st house at a person's birth he will be valiant, obstinate, will have defective eyes and be cruel hearted. But if Aries be the ascendant, the person will earn himself but will suffer from eye disease. If the Sun be in Leo, the person concerned will be night blind. If Libra be the ascendant, the native will be blind and poor as well. If the ascendant be Cancer with the Sun in it, the person concerned will have inflamed eyes.

Saravali states the Sun be in the ascendant the native will be lazy, of quick temper, proud, cruel, valiant and unforgiving. He will have cataract in his eyes if the Sun be in Cancer. He will have defective eye sight, if Sun be in Aries in the ascendant. The Sun in Leo will make the native night blind. If the Sun be in Libra, the native will be poor and issueless.

Chamatkar Chintamani- The native who has the Sun in the ascendant has a good nose and body and a high forehead. He is troubled on account of his wife, children and family. He suffers from bilious diseases. He is always travelling. His wealth is not constant. He has ups and downs in this respect.
