Planets & TransitsThe Sun and Moon in Vedic Astrology: Soul and Mind
If the planets are a royal court, the Sun and Moon are its king and queen — the two luminaries on which the whole chart depends. One speaks for the soul, the other for the mind.
Surya — the Sun
The Sun (Surya) signifies the soul, vitality, confidence, the father and one's sense of purpose. A strong Sun gives authority, health and clarity of self; when weak, confidence and direction can waver.
Chandra — the Moon
The Moon (Chandra) governs the mind, emotions, the mother and inner peace. So central is it that your Moon sign and its nakshatra anchor much of Vedic prediction, including the Dasha system. A contented Moon brings emotional steadiness.
The Sun is who you are; the Moon is how you feel being it.
To understand your Sun and Moon and what they shape, book a consultation — in person across Delhi NCR or online from Delhi, Pune and other cities.
For guidance grounded in authentic Vedic astrology, consult Dr. R.P. Sharma.
