The Sun is represented by the God of Light "Apollo", It is also called the "Planet of the Self". The Sun in Astrological understanding and importance reflects the life force within us in the same way in which the Sun is the life force of the Solar System. The Roman Deity for Sun is "Sol Apollo", Greek God for Sun is "Helios Apollo", and according to Hindu Religious beliefs, Sun God is known as "Surya" ("The Supreme Light"). The weekday Sunday is being ruled by this star. Sun gives strength to other Planets also and that's why occupy an important position in Astrology. The Sun is represented by a Circled Dot.

The Sun stands for strength, vigour and dominance, individuality and creativity, energy and power, masculine traits in you, paternal qualities, authority and leadership, ambition, pride in your work and whatever you are, self-expression, determination as well as confidence. In Chinese Astrology Sun is call "Yang" and is said to represent the Masculine force. Sun rules the Zodiac sign Leo and the fifth house of your Birth Chart.

When the Sun is positioned favourably in your Birth chart then you feel positive and energetic about you and others. You also tend to find faults easily and rectify then emerging yourself as a better human being. The Sun's position at the time of birth is used to determine a person's "Sun sign" as it travels through all the 12 Zodiac signs and stays for a month each on each Zodiac sign. So, for e.g. if the Sun's position at the time of your birth is at Taurus then your Sun Sign is Taurus.
