 The
Sun is the symbol of God and is also the core of who we are; the ego in
the true sense of the word. He is one of the two luminaries and is the
Lord of Light. He travels approximately 0deg59 per month. He rules the
fourth house of fathers, our ancestry and paternal lineage, and he
rules the eleventh house of friends and “pennies from heaven”.
