Sun Transit: Outcomes

The first thing to take into account while addressing the transit of Sun is the nature, dignity or placement of the Natal Sun in the particular horoscope. A benefic planet with good dignity in the birth chart will produce positive outcomes, but a malefic planet with bad dignity in the birth chart will produce negative results.

The strong placement of the Sun in the first, fourth, sixth, and tenth houses from the Ascendant and the third, sixth, and tenth houses from the Moon sign during transit will result in auspicious results.

It is indicative of strong goal orientation, intense desire for obtaining desired results in life, good professional and vocational aptitude, dignity and protective instinct in personal relationships.

During its transit, the Sun's weak or malefic placement, particularly in the 8th or 12th houses, can cause anxieties about health, ego and disputes in personal and professional life with the drive to govern and dominate others, which comes from an egoistic impulse.

Dignity or Placement of Sun in Sign/House during Transit

The dignity or placement of the Sun during its transit in the house/sign is critical because it activates and highlights the events associated with that sign and house.

• If the Sun is transiting through its own/exalted/friendly sign/house at the time of birth and is well situated in harmony with other planets, then it gives you amazing organizational skills, resolve and decisiveness, which makes success easier throughout the Sun's transit.
• On the other hand, if the Sun is transiting through the enemy/debilitated sign/house and is in a difficult relationship with other planets, you will be prone to egoistic arrogance and argumentative nature, which will create situations and relationships that will necessitate extra efforts and attention to make them work.

Example: For Aries, the Sun is in its exalted sign and controls the 5th house, which might reward you with appropriate instincts for success. But for Virgo, the Sun rules the 12th house, which will require efforts for positive results, depending on your birth chart.

Transit or Aspect of Sun over Other Planets

The Sun's relationship with other planets is a crucial factor in producing progressive, average or malefic outcomes during the transit.

• The transit or aspect of the Sun over friendly planets such as the Moon, Mars and Jupiter, if well positioned in any horoscope, will provide you with favorable results owing to an increase in inclination for work and great courage to attain goals.
• The transit of the Sun over a neutral planet such as Mercury is expected to have modest to average results.
• The transit of Sun over the enemy planets Venus and Saturn might cause tension and less progressive outcomes in events as a result of lack of enthusiasm and efforts on all fronts.
• Transit of the Sun with Rahu/Ketu in the same sign might cause the Sun to eclipse. This denotes difficulties in your job, health or relationship with your father.

The Sun's conjunction with other planets can produce auspicious/inauspicious consequences that can be extremely beneficial/less progressive with a frequent screening of one of them at regular intervals, depending on the Sun's quick transit pace.

• The Sun-Mercury [intelligence] conjunction in the same house bestows you with intellect and knowledge, as well as a high level of comprehension and learning capacity, and elegance of speech, which may lead to success in many areas of life.
• Sun-Mars [courage], the combination of two flaming planets, brings the power of endurance and the impetus of swift action with energy, which can lead to success in the medical profession.
• The Sun-Jupiter [spiritual] conjunction is a progressive conjunction that makes you sincere, affluent and committed to responsibilities, with a balanced mental equilibrium, good reputation and fortune.
• Sun-Venus [relationships] might cause you to be highly courteous, sophisticated, lucky, popular, and loving in your relationship and behavior.
• The Sun-Saturn conjunction offers power to Saturn, which may make you wealthy but may also result in a lack of direction in sustaining personal ties.
• Sun’s conjunction with Rahu (dragon's head) or Ketu (dragon's tail) in the same house in your horoscope can cause the Sun to eclipse, which can negatively impact your life with hurdles and egoistic behavior toward others in unprogressive relationships.

The transit of the Sun in your horoscope is impacted by a variety of elements, including the dignity of the Sun and the kind of relationship it has with other planets. Based on the aspect, house/sign, location and position of the Sun, combustion, close proximity and conjunctions with any planet that might affect your life during that era, you are likely to encounter benefic and malefic consequences.

Traditional astrology observes planet transits from the Ascendant when observing transit effects connected to the Sun. The other premise of transit observation is the positioning of the Moon in the birth chart, which is used as the Ascendant to assess the impacts of the Sun's transit.

Effects of Sun’s Transit in various houses

Sun transit in first house implies that your attention is on personal identity, appearance, confident self-expression, health, and physique. You are focused on the course of your life events such as personal/professional front and health.

There is a natural charm in your personality that makes you the center of attention and inspires others. On the other hand, if the Sun moves into the same sign as the natal Moon, it may have a bad influence on your profession, peace and financial stability, and produce health issues such as blood pressure, heart and eye problems.

Sun transit in second house of family and money implies that a strong Sun might cause you to become more focused on family and wealth possibilities. You will provide well for your family through your job, you will exercise power inside your household.

A weak Sun might cause financial difficulties as well as temperamental concerns in your personal and professional relationships.

Sun transit in third house of desire, courage and siblings means that it will bring professional advancement, satisfaction in personal relationships, excellent health, and an increase in wealth with increased energy to defeat your competitors.

The Sun here suggests that your communication style may be inclined toward counseling and guiding others, particularly siblings in the family.

Sun transit in fourth house of mother, property, stability, and family bliss means that you will focus more on family matters, which may lead to you becoming more authoritarian at home.

With the placement of the strong Sun in your horoscope, you are more likely to give attention to your mother; and real-estate concerns might be progressive. A weak or afflicted Sun can cause mental stress and worry, as well as make you authoritarian and irritable, which can harm your image. Disputes with elders at home are probable, particularly with the mother, during this transit.

Sun transit in fifth house of love, children, creativity and speculation suggests you will focus on your children's education, health and upbringing, which might turn you authoritarian owing to worrying over them.

Love affairs might start taking good shape, but avoid becoming too dominant in your personal relationships or it may have a detrimental effect. A weak or troubled Sun can cause difficulties in financial speculation, relationships with children and partners and a downturn in your personal image.

Sun transit in sixth house of debt, sickness and rivals suggests alleviation in current health prospects, victory over rivals and relief in legal troubles, if any. During this transit, your endeavors will be mostly successful.

Avoid being overly authoritarian in your personal and professional interactions to improve your relationships.

Sun transit in seventh house of marriage and partnership implies that the positive Sun placement will provide you with the knowledge to examine personal and professional partnerships and take necessary actions to ensure their fructification in relationships and gains.

For future advancement, avoid assuming authority in relationships. Work might be difficult, personal connections can be strained and a weak Sun may cause health problems for your spouse.

Sun transit in eighth house of hurdles, unexpected loss/gain and inheritance suggests that the favorable placement of the Sun may deliver sudden profits through inheritance and a propensity towards research work if you are a student.

However, the final results will depend on the power of the Sun in your horoscope which can cause troubles by giving rise to legal issues. On the other hand, you will also have to take care of your health with extreme care.

Sun transit in ninth house of fortune, spirituality and long travel will give you authority as a mentor/teacher for the benefit of your students. You may have to prioritize higher education if you are a student. Long-distance travel may be necessary for personal and professional development.

On the other hand, a poor Sun placement might harm your professional image; give rise to financial hardship, lack of fortune, and family/spouse problems. Long travels will be detrimental to your health.

Sun transit in tenth house of career and status implies that you have career-oriented ideas and action-oriented work tactics. This transit may put your focus on your father's progress and increase interactions with prominent people for future career achievements. On both personal and professional levels, there is mutual respect and progress.

For total improvement, avoid any egoistic behavior.

Sun transit in eleventh house of income, gains and fulfillment of desires indicates that your focus will be on career gains during the transit, with a strong inclination toward maintaining a professional network and overall progress in all spheres – including career, health and personal relationships.

Keep an eye on your egoistic behavioral pattern caused by overconfidence.

Sun transit in twelfth house of loss, expenditure and foreign travel or settlement indicates that the Sun in beneficial dignity in this house will bless you with a strong spiritual inclination for more charity-related work or the possibility of travel to a foreign country. But it will affect your behavior with dominance.

Sun in low dignity in your horoscope will offer an impulsive attitude that will result in financial problems due to overspending, disagreements in existing relationships, lack of peace and harmony due to temperamental fluctuations in behavior; and health concerns.
