The Sun

At the center of our solar system is the Sun, in which the Earth and all the other planets revolve around. The sun is considered an integral part of astrology, representing our conscious mind, will to live and creativity.

The Sun is thought to reflect personal power, pride, authority, leadership qualities, the ego, our health and creativity and spontaneity. It is able to influence the fun side of life, allowing us to "shine" through recreational activities, vacations, social events and sport. It impacts on the creativity within a person, projecting the way they feel about art, business, children and parenthood – particularly fatherhood.

The Sun travels through each sign of the Zodiac throughout a year, spending approximately a month in each sign. It is the suns position on a person's birthday that therefore influences what their star sign is – as the sun itself is a star. The precise date of sun signs vary from year to year, with a person born on the cusp relying on the sign nearest to them.
