Sun and Moon: A Delicate Balance

The Sun shines bright. The Moon reflects light. One rules the day, the other guides the night.’ In Vedic astrology, they shape who we are and how we feel. The Sun is willpower. The Moon is emotion. Together, they define identity, desires, and fears. When they align, life flows. When they clash, the mind struggles.

The Sun: Strength and Struggle

• It commands, leads, and burns.
• It fuels ambition, confidence, and purpose.
• A strong Sun creates vision and success.
• A weak Sun brings doubt and hesitation.

The Moon: Depth and Darkness

• It feels, adapts, and remembers.
• It governs memories, moods, and instincts.
• A strong Moon nurtures and protects.
• A weak Moon wavers and withdraws.

When the Sun and Moon meet, they shape the story of the self.
