Sun in Lal Kitab: nature and remedies

Sun is the planet of self-respect, the father, government and reputation.

In Lal Kitab the Sun is the king on the throne of the 1st house. It stands for your standing in the world: how much authority you carry, how the father and senior people treat you, and whether your name opens doors. A strong Sun gives a straight back and a clean reputation; a troubled one shows as friction with bosses, the government or the father.

Lal Kitab is practical about the Sun. Its remedies are plain acts of respect and generosity: offering water to the rising Sun, giving wheat and jaggery, keeping your word, and never letting an elder in the house feel insulted. The book treats character as the Sun's first remedy.
