In vedic astrology Sun is considered king among the nine planets. Sun is royalty, flamboyant, confident, charismatic and enterprising. Sun is born to rule and hates menial tasks. According to Bhrigu Samhita Sun is the natural lord of career house along with Mercury, Jupiter and Saturn.

Sun is indeed royalty and finds it below his dignity to do menial tasks. Having said that Sun is well aware of his responsibilities as one who has to lead, nurture, motivate and protect his kingdom and subjects. Sun follows a consistent pattern of rising in the east and setting in the west. Sun understands that royalty has to set an example for others to follow. When time calls for it Sun will act responsibly and lead from front.

Sun can allow career as a successful politician, as an MNC employee or in a secure government job. There is also a chance to do farming especially cultivation of grains, yellow pulses and turmeric. There is a chance to work as an independent contractor for government works. Sun can give an ideal career in management and consultancy roles. Sun is significator of health and as such can provide work as health and fitness expert. Sun represents confidence and may provide work as motivational coach or speaker. Strong Sun can provide career as a senator, MP, MLA or a diplomat. Sun represent intelligence and soul and can give good knowledge of religion, spirituality, inner self and occult subjects like astrology, tarots, alchemy, magic etc.

Ideally doing job is more suitable as compared to business. But business related to consultancy, management, motivation, farming, fitness and spirituality can be pursued.

If Sun is associated with Moon than chances of working as a farmer, motivational coach, in catering sector or in real estate are there. If Sun is with Mars than working in army or police is a possibility. Sun with Mercury does Budh-Aditya Yoga and can make one an enterpreneur or allow work as an accountant, chartered accountant or in marketing or management sectors. Sun with Jupiter can provide a chance to work as professor or lecturer in government funded schools, colleges and universities. Sun+Jupiter can also make for a successful diplomat, minister or provide job as an adviser to those in power. Sun with Venus can provide work in hotel, restaurant and hospitality sector. Sun with Saturn can make one a politician or IT manager. Sun with Rahu can make one a successful politician, real estate developer or singer. Sun with Ketu can provide jobs in health sector, occults or spirituality.

Sun provides good administrative skills, confident personality and enterprising nature. Sun will provide an ability to motivate and lead others.

Sun hates doing menial tasks. Sun refuses to emphathize with others. Sun's confidence often borders on arrogance. Most of the narcissist personalities have Sun in influential position. Sun loves to mock and make fun of other less fortunate souls.

Most people get confused between sign lordships and house lordships. They naturally assume Saturn is lord of tenth house since it rules over tenth sign Capricorn. But tenth house rules over career. There were four different types of career in oldern times including administration suggested by Sun, education and advisary suggested by Jupiter, business suggested by Mercury and service suggested by Saturn. So four planets were given lordship over tenth house in ancient texts specifically Bhrigu Samhita.
