Planet in Sign
Sun in Virgo (Kanya)
When Sun (Surya), the karaka of soul, father, authority, vitality, government, ego, occupies Virgo (Kanya), a earth sign ruled by mercury, its energy takes on the analytical, practical, meticulous, service-minded qualities of the sign.
The core meaning of Sun in Virgo
Surya is the soul of the chart and the karaka of self, vitality and authority. A strong Sun gives confidence, leadership and steady health.
Sun expresses here through the lens of Mercury, the lord of Virgo, blending the two energies.
Because Virgo is a dual earth sign, it shapes Sun toward being analytical, practical, meticulous, service-minded. The matters Sun governs, soul, father, authority, vitality, government, ego, are coloured by these traits throughout life.
