Sun

The Sun is the king of the grahas — the soul (Atma) of the horoscope. It represents your core identity, ego, willpower, and the father figure. A well-placed Sun brings confidence, leadership, and vitality. A weak or afflicted Sun can show low self-esteem, health issues, or a difficult relationship with authority.
