Sun

The Sun represents your core identity, vitality, and conscious self-expression. It is the center of your chart and the most fundamental expression of who you are.

Rules: Leo

Aries

Fire sign, Cardinal modality. Ruled by Mars.

Element: Fire · Modality: Cardinal

Interpretation

The Sun in Aries burns with initiatory fire. You lead with your identity — direct, competitive, and impatient with anything that moves too slowly. Your vitality comes from starting things, from being first, from the raw act of assertion. The danger is burnout: Aries lights fast and hot, but sustaining that flame requires learning when to conserve. At your best, you are courageous and pioneering. At your worst, you mistake aggression for strength.

Essential Dignity: Exalted

Sun is exalted in Aries. The planet operates at an elevated level, expressing its highest potential. This is a position of honor and amplified strength.
