Sun in Taurus (Vrishabha)
When Sun (Surya), the karaka of soul, father, authority, vitality, government, ego, occupies Taurus (Vrishabha), a earth sign ruled by venus, its energy takes on the patient, reliable, sensual, determined qualities of the sign.
The core meaning of Sun in Taurus
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 Venus, the lord of Taurus, blending the two energies.
Because Taurus is a fixed earth sign, it shapes Sun toward being patient, reliable, sensual, determined. The matters Sun governs, soul, father, authority, vitality, government, ego, are coloured by these traits throughout life.
