The Sun is known as the Planet of the Self. The position of the Sun by zodiac sign reveals who you are in terms of your personality and individuality. It is how you present yourself to the world. This means that it determines your temperament, overall outlook on life and your tendencies in relation to others.
By house, the Sun’s position shows where our personalities shine the most and where a person will shine the brightest in their lives. Willpower, determination, strength, resilience in the face of adversity and ability to conquer goals are all characteristics revealed by the sun, so the sun and it’s position by house is a major player in a person’s astrological chart.
The sun resides over a person’s playful, experimental, and creative urges; their ability to bring new ideas and forms into existence; the capacity for pleasure, joy, and happiness; and over the prominent males such as a father, husband/boyfriend and or other important male figures.
The sun is a masculine energy and rules over Leo and the fifth house.
