Sun in Ashlesha 

“As far as the game of marbles is concerned, there is therefore no contradiction between the egocentric practice of games and the mystical respect entertained for rules. This respect is the mark of a mentality fashioned, not by free cooperation between equals, but by adult constraint.”  ~Jean Piaget

They spotlight puts them in a tight position and they tend to express themselves in a do or die fashion. Many of these folks have either been in trouble from the law or have had to undergo detox and/or rehab. Martin Sheen, Martha Stewart, Doc Holliday, Larry Nassar. The way they express themselves makes them hard to trust; as if there is some manipulation going on all the time, like they’re holding something back; they almost seem to lack sincerity. The express themselves like a snake. Maxine Waters is famous for race-baiting. India has the threat of riot and war hanging over its head since independence agreements poisoned the well of unity. Power can be a poison with this sun, but many of these people become cultural icons. Many of them are very powerful people, and once they get power they will not let go of it without a struggle. The trick it so follow Jean Piaget’s advice and learn to restrain your own power, hold it in, allow it to build and express itself freely without with trying to force it or hold onto it.

Sun in Cancer “will send a message to understand the worldly obligations but not get emerged in it. Destroy your personal affiliations without the world realising that you are neglecting your social obligations.” — Bepin Behari

Sun in Ashlesha Pada 1, Sagittarius Navamsha: The Audacity of hope sums up this position nicely. They express themselves like a teacher, a mentor, a guide to show others the way.

Sun in Ashlesha Pada 2, Capricorn Navamsha: This position makes them very independent and career and possibly in life, but they are likely to be celebrated for their lives work and an example for others to follow. Even those who have fallen into the spirals of addiction tend to come back out of it and offer that example for others.

Sun in Ashlesha Pada 3, Aquarius Navamsha: These last two nakshatras are much more physical in nature. Here he get a number of wrestlers or grapplers. They need a sense of certainty to feel comfortable, they need to be a winner, and this will put them in the centre of large network of adoring fans. We find two of the most flour astrologer’s responsible for opening astrology to the world: Sanjay Rath & B.V. Raman. They trapped with truth, with finding certainty through the astrology charts and have done very well in this field.

Sun in Ashlesha Pada 4, Pisces Navamsha: We find the grappling here seeks a deeper form of certainty and winning might mean the death of the opponent, or at least something dying inside of them, submission. We find a few more astrologers with Sun in the 4th pada, but they are clairvoyants as much as they are astrologers. They do not have the same ability to find certainty through the interconnection of all things in the same way that the 3rd pada does.

Sun in Ashlesha 1st house

Rules the 2nd house for Cancer ascendant.

Phala Deepika: Sun in 1st leaves the person with “very little hair on their head, makes him inactive, short tempered, impetuous, tall haughty, has soiled eyes and a lean body. He is valiant, impatient and cruel hearted.” If Sun is in Cancer ascendant they will have cataract in the eyes.”

Jataka Bharnam: Sun in 1st house native “has thin hair, shows laziness in doing things, tends to be angry, has a very extreme temperament, is sensual or amorous, has diseases eyes, bodily dryness, is brave, lacks spirit of forgiveness and is cruel.” “They will suffer from bilious disorders: fever, chicken pox, croup, TB, irregular bowel movements (diarrhoea or constipation). He does not adjust well to those around him because he does not wish to conspire against anyone, and because he his frank and clear in his speech. They are prone to sudden anger but it’s short lived. He leads a life of freedom and independence as he does not like to lose his sense of originality which is lost when he works under others. They generally have righteous and moral conduct.”

B.V. Raman: Sun in the 1st house: “Strong moral nature, righteous minded, ambitious, love for power and tends to be well supported by good health and vitality. Cheerfulness and optimistic temperament help to ensure popularity. It adds respect to the personality and. Gives lofty motives. If with Saturn or Mars, it indicates scars and a hot constitution. The blood becomes impure and will be itches all over the body: fevers, inflammations and eye afflictions should also be anticipated.”

Chamatkar Chintamani: Sun in the 1st house: “The native is tall, distressed with wife, children and brethren. He suffers from biliousness, lives in a foreign land with difficulty, and has many financial ups and downs.He may not have any children, he will be happy but cruel, and will have poor appetite and defective sight. He is bold, modest, actor, studious, diligent, and is well placed in society. He makes progress and gets good luck.  If in Pisces, the native develops connection with many women. If in Leo, he suffers night-blindness. The native is strong. If Sun is in masculine signs he will have few children and be discontented. If in female signs he will have a large family and be contented and happy. If in Aries, Leo, Sagittarius (fire signs) he is bold, unhappy and courteous; he may get measles or small pox in childhood. If in Aries, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, or Pisces he may be an actor. If in Cancer, Scorpio, Sagittarius or Pisces the native is a scholar and a virtuous man. If in Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn the native will work as an underdog. Sun in Cancer attracts him to his family. Sun in scorpio makes him a good doctor. If in fire signs the native is ambitious, short-tempered, dominating and sober. If in earthy signs the native is vain, impertinent, moody. Airy signs makes the native just, large-hearted, and has artistic and literary taste. Water signs draw him to women forgetting personal good. The sun during summer solstice bring disputes and makes him ego-centric and selfish. In winter solstice promotes divinity in the native. If exalted, well aspected or associated gives faith, confidence, natural ambition, positions of trust and influence and supports moral growth.”

BPHS: 2nd lord in the 1st house: “The native will be endowed with sons and wealth, will be inimical to his family, lustful, hard-hearted and will do others’ jobs. These inauspicious effects are most particular for Virgo ascendant. Capricorn ascendant should allow more auspicious effects to occur.”

B.V. Raman: 2nd lord in the 1st house: “The native becomes no doubt wealthy but he hates his own family, lacks polite manners, becomes passionate, subservient and time-serving. One will earn money by his own effort, intelligence and learning or he will get inherited wealth if the 9th lord or the Sun has anything to do with this combination.”

BPHS: 5th lord in the 4th house: “The native will be happy with blessing of maternal happiness, wealth, and intelligence. He will be a king, minister or preceptor. This is a very auspicious situation. Libra ascendant will cause a significant Raja Yoga for government favour.

His children have to suffer hardship and trouble. He does not talk of reason. He is not worth to be a preceptor, he faces obstacles to education.

Sun in Ashlesha 7th house

Rules the 8th house for Capricorn ascendant.

Phala Deepika: Sun in 7th will cause one “to suffer the displeasure of rulers and be disabled. He will wander without wife and suffer humiliation.”

Jataka Bharnam: Sun in 7th house person “remains without property, his body seems lacklustre; he is fearful and diseased, bad natured, remains distressed due to fear of royal punishment and has a weak body.” “Exceptional wealth can occasionally be found by establishing an industry in partnership with someone else.”

B.V. Raman: Sun in the 7th house: “The native will be fair and have thinning hair. He will have few friends and finds difficulty getting along with other people. Marriage is delayed and troubled. He will be fond of traveling and have loose morals. He likes foreign things and unique things. His wife character will be of questionable and the native runs the risk of disgrace through women. He will incur the displeasure of government and suffer humiliation. He will be deformed.”

Chamatkar Chintamani: Sun in the 7th house: “The native has strained relations with his wife, he’s is diseased, mentally tense, little profit in business and rivalry with the people; insomnia. The native is sick and his wife suffers. Despite efforts in business he fails to earn enough. The wife is everything to this native and he losses his own individuality to her. He is afraid of the king, suffers sickness and has many enemies. Jealous of the women folk and therefore he slights them. He is short tempered and wicked. Always quarrels with the wife making the whole family unhappy. Scorned by the women folk always. The wife of such a native is not faithful and devoted to him; he himself is wicked and suffered from syphilis and diabetes and does not get children’s happiness. Sun in 7th delays marriage and there is no happiness in married life. He has two wives. Travels abroad in the 25th year, takes uneatable food and suffers; he is jolly and criticises women-folk; he is foolish and destructive. If the Sun is in own sign or is strong he is loyal to his wife; if poorly placed he is a polygamist. According to western thought Sun in 7th stands for an ambitious partner with a beneficial influence in life, promising personal and financial gain. If well aspected the partner will feel independent, be of sound moral integrity, harmony seeking and will have happiness in married life. Afflicted sun will bring trouble through pride subject to the nature of aspects or other influences. 7th house stands for love, marriage, husband, wife, public enemies, law suits, partnership in trade, travel, happiness, children for the second wife, son-in-law, relatives, ways and means of merchandise. Sun in Aries, Leo, Capricorn in the 7th house is not favourable. If in Gemini, Libra, or Aquarius the native gets the highest education, is an expert in administration and law, promotes music, art and literature, has few or no children. Aries, Leo, or Sagittarius brings two marriages. May get a late marriage with difficulty. They love their independence too much. Feminine signs like Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn brings gain in business; they fight elections. Sun in Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces makes the native a doctor or an engineer. As a rule the wife of the native will be impressive, good at public dealings, a good hostess, kind to servants and helpful to her partner. She is good looking but high fisted. The sun in Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, brings dishonour to husband. If this Sun in a water or earth sign gives success in life and in service only up to age 50. This Sun in masculine signs gives many ups and down; may loose their wife in their early 50s and denies a second marriage. Few children if in masculine signs; many if in feminine signs.”

BPHS: 8th lord in the 7th house: “The native will have two wives. If conjunct and malefic planet there will certainly be loss in his trade. Pisces or Virgo ascendant most commonly provides two wives due to the debilitated nature of the planets involved.”

B.V. Raman: 8th lord in the 7th house: “If conjunct the 7th lord longevity will be curtailed. The natives wife may suffer ill health. If afflicted, the native himself might suffer from disease. He may go abroad where he meets with ill health and problems. If both 7th & 8th lords are strong, the native will undertake foreign journeys and diplomatic missions and he will distinguish himself.”

If associated with the 8th or the 11th he may gain monetary benefits suddenly or through speculation. He will have limited progeny; mostly males.”

Karako Bhavo Nashtu: When the karaka (or signifying agent) of a house is placed the house of his significations it destroys the results of that house.

One may feel like there is not enough room for the two of you.

Phala Deepika: Sun in 9th house causes one to “lose their father, but the one will have children and relatives and revere the gods and brahmins.”

Jataka Bharnam: Sun in 9th house “keeps the person engaged in doing the rites of his religion and endowed with noble and excellent intellect. Happiness from son and friends, but enmity towards mothers family.” “A strong Sun gives a religious attitude, patriotism, ascetic with reverence for elders and teachers. Their sons make good progress, their partner is virtuous, and their father’s heath is sound, and he himself is long-lived. Reputed for good and virtuous deeds, and gets distinctions from the king, and collects great wealth.”

B.V. Raman: Sun in the 9th house: “The native may change his faith if the Sun is afflicted or poorly placed. He will show hostel feelings towards his father and lack respect for elders and preceptors. If Sun is not afflicted he will be a dutiful son with regard for spiritual pursuits. If conjunct Moon: eye troubles. With Venus: sickness and ailments. Health will be ordinary and the native gets little patrimony. He will be ambitious and enterprising.”

BPHS: 10th lord in the 9th house: “The native is born to a royal family and becomes a king; ordinary results will make this person like a king with wealth and progeny happiness. Very auspicious placement. The native is endowed with royal or government powers and is successful in his profession.”

B.V. Raman: 10th lord in the 9th house: “The native is a spiritual stalwart and will be a beacon of light for spiritual seekers if Jupiter aspects. If both benefics and malefic aspect, the native is usually well-to-do. He follows a hereditary position like preacher, teacher, or healer. The father of the native has great influence over him. He will be dutiful son and do many charitable deeds.”

Bepin Behari: “The Sun in the 10th house Cancer provides vitality to your social interaction. Intellectually, you are versatile to the point of genius. It is not just social eminence which attracts people to you, but the fact that you are always concerned with helping and working for others. Your sense of responsibility is enormous; whenever you accept the responsibility for any task, you will certainly see it to its successful completion. Your organising skills are so extraordinary, your personality so commanding, and your conduct is ethical that everyone from whom you require service or work willingly cooperates with you.”

Commentary: Entitled to lead, to teach. They express themselves like they are praying to an assembly.

Martha Stewart: Sun Mahadasha 1967 –  1973. She started a new career as a stock broker, which is what her father in law was doing. Meanwhile, her husband, Andrew Stewart founded a publishing house and the two of them moved to  Westport Connecticut where they purchased and restored the 1805 farmhouse on Turkey Hill Road that would later become the model for the TV studio of Martha Stewart Living.

Sun in Ashlesha 12th house

Rules the 1st house for Leo ascendant.

Phala Deepika: Sun in the 12th house “will cause discord between the native and his father, defect his vision, leaving him without wealth or children.”

Jataka Bharnam: Sun in 12th house “causes the eyesight of the native to be weak, his ideas clash with the father and the mind bends towards improper conduct and thinking is opposed to every accepted assumption and common sense.” “This is an inauspicious place for sun: eye trouble, bodily pain, trouble to the uncle, losses and troubles in travel. They may be educated in a foreign country, have trouble with the government, and think about thing opposed to morality and religion. These natives are selfless, have the spirit of renunciation, are of wrathful disposition and remain as if intoxicated. If this sun has malefic influences they may suffer kidney stones, failure in politics and have to visit a prison.” Sun conjunct Moon in the 12th house can give alcohol addiction. Additional malefic influence will certainly give problems to the eyes and heart.”

B.V. Raman: Sun in the 12th house: “The native may take to an immoral life and engage himself in vile occupations. He will not be quite successful in life and may feel neglected by all. He may suffer the loss of some time and have poor eyesight. He will however, be energetic and have sons.”

BPHS: 1st lord in the 12th house: “The native will be bereft of bodily pleasures. Unless there is benefic aspect he will untruthfully spend his wealth and will be given to much anger. Libra ascendant suffers extremely bad effects. He is deprived of his mortal happiness, wealth, family and health. He remains in the grip of pessimism and likely has deficiency or disease of the eyes. Though he has the blessing of long life, his death is sudden and he dies away from home. If Aquarius ascendant there is no malefic effect.”

B.V. Raman: 1st lord in the 12th house: “In addition there will be many losses, visiting holy places and no success in business enterprise. He will spend inherited riches on charities and other deserving causes. Emotionally balanced he will dedicate himself for public weal. Same results as 1st lord in the 8th: “Learned, gambling tendencies, interested in occultism and mean character. If the lord is strong, they may take pride in helping others and have many friends. He will be religiously inclined and have a peaceful and sudden end.”

Commentary: Father may have been working from the home but is somehow detent none-the-less.
