Sun / Surya
The Sun, according to the Vedas, is the parent of all existing phenomena in the
solar system. He is the ruler of all the planets that rotate around him. The Sun is
considered to be the soul of Kala Purusha (Kala = time, Purusha = being; combined,
it means the being that binds himself to Time).
Its colored is bloodred, its nature is bile-dominated, and it is the lord of the direction
East.
It is the ruler of the zodiacal sign, Leo, and is exalted in the sign Aries, debilitated in
Libra, and exiled in Aquarius. The Moon, Mars, and Jupiter are its natural friends,
and Venus, Saturn, Rahu (dragon’s head, or the north node of the Moon), and Ketu
(dragon’s tail, the south node of the Moon) are its natural enemies. Nakshatras
Kritika, Uttra Phalguni, and Uttra Khad are ruled by the Sun.
The Sun gives us vitality and the power of resistance and immunity. It is responsible
for our physical makeup – the body’s constitution. The Sun gives life force, the
power of will, intellect, brilliance, prosperity, success in worldly affairs, wealth,
personal, conduct, activity, cheerfulness, good fortune, wisdom, ambition, fame, the
understanding of the phenomenal world, and the knowledge of medicine. It also
governs our relationship with temples and holy places.
The human spine is specially influenced by the Sun. Pingala Nadi, which represents
the Sun, originates at the base of the spine on the right side, is solar in nature, and
terminates in the right nostril. The Sun is connected with the right eye in men and
the left eye in women. The Sun rules the heart, liver, lungs, head (brain), nerves,
and bones.
