Sun in the 1st house in Lal Kitab

The Sun on its own throne: authority, a strong name and favour from people in power, as long as pride stays in check.

What Lal Kitab says

The 1st house is the Sun's own throne and its house of exaltation, so Lal Kitab counts this among the Sun's best positions. The person carries natural authority, is noticed without trying, and often does well in or with government. The book's one warning is pride: the same Sun that lifts the person can isolate them if they stop listening.

Why Sun behaves this way here

The 1st house is Sun's own house (pakka ghar). Lal Kitab says a planet at home shows its true nature, and its results are more dependable.

In the Kalpurush order the 1st house is Sun's sign of exaltation, so it is counted at full strength here.

Is Sun in your 1st house?

Lal Kitab counts houses from your lagna, so Sun sits in a different house for everyone. A free kundli shows your 1st house. If Sun isn't there, HeyKundli tells you what is, and where your Sun sits instead.
