Each planet below is explained in words, blending karma, psychology, destiny, and spiritual understanding .
Sun is the core identity engine of a human being. It shows how much self-respect, authority, and inner fire a person carries. A strong Sun creates leadership without shouting, confidence without arrogance, and decision power without fear. A weak Sun creates identity confusion, constant search for validation, fear of standing alone, and dependence on external approval. Sun rules father energy, political power, government systems, visibility, and moral backbone. In life, Sun decides whether you command your direction or get controlled by circumstances. Wherever Sun sits in a chart, that area becomes a spotlight zone where responsibility cannot be escaped. Sun burns lies, ego masks, and fake pride. It forces truth, even if uncomfortable. Sun also represents health, immunity, bones, and life-force. If Sun is balanced, life moves with dignity. If imbalanced, pride turns into insecurity.
Moon is the emotional brain of a person. It controls mood cycles, memory storage, imagination, fear, attachment, and inner peace. A strong Moon gives mental stability, emotional intelligence, care for others, and quick emotional recovery. A weak Moon creates anxiety, emotional dependence, insecurity, mood swings, and disturbed sleep. Moon represents mother connection, food comfort, public emotional image, and childhood conditioning. Moon moves fast, and so does the human mind. It also controls habit formation and subconscious reactions. Many people succeed externally but collapse internally because Moon is wounded.
