New Delhi : The Sun’s placement in your birth chart represents your core identity, ego, vitality and true self. All in all, it is the main driver of your personality. How you shine and seek recognition in life is defined by where and how the Sun is positioned in your chart. The house it is placed in represents where this impact is seen the most. The most powerful placement in this regard, is when the Sun is positioned in the 10th house.
Here, it gains maximum directional strength and drives the personality towards career jumps, fame and authority. Also highly favourable positions include the 1st house – representing self and health, 9th house – representing luck and dharma, and the 11th house – representing gains and networking. These placements spell out general good luck, as well as a commanding personality.
In the same breath, the least powerful positions for the Sun in a birth chart are the 12th, 8th and 6th houses representing isolation (owing to the ‘death position’), deep crises and heightened impact from enemies and illnesses, respectively. 7th house too, is challenging here as it can cause ego clashes with partners and weaken your general autonomy.
Whichever category you fall into – whether you’re looking to further fortify yourself, or genuinely perform rituals to harness the ‘tej’ of the Sun, this simple remedy from Ascension specialist, Samaal, lights the way ahead.
Harness the ‘Tej’ of the Sun
You simply need to perform this ritual on a Sunday, and feel free to repeat week on week depending on your intention. This practice, as per Sammal, promises to harness confidence, creativity, name, respect, fame and money, if performed earnestly. Start by applying a kesar or haldi tika at the base of your left ring finger. Once the tika is applied, use your other hand to press down on the tika and say the following prayer:
“Om Suryaya Narayanaya Phat Phat Phat”
As you say the prayer, set your intentions and make your wish.
The special thing about this mantra is that it invokes the energy of Lord Surya Narayana, looking to Him to destroy negativity and obstacles. Not just this, the prayer also helps destroy negativity and obstacles. In addition to this, ‘Phat’ is believed to be a tantric syllable for purification and destroying evil.
