San as Putra Karaka

Please check this introductory article to understand the theme and purpose behind this series -https://www.astrosaxena.com/articles/NewSeries-PlanetsasJaiminiKarakas-IntroductoryArticle


Let’s cover this article under following points -


Sun - Sun represents Personality, King, Government, Father, Authority, Career, Top Positions, Ego, Self Esteem, Health, Education etc.


Putra Karaka - It is planet with the 5th highest degree. It is known as Putra Karaka or Significator of Child. This planet and its position in chart will indicate towards your relation with your Children and their life. 


Results of Sun as Putra Karaka - As I see, following results can be prominent when Sun becomes someone’s Putra Karaka -


1. So, Putra Karaka is a planet which tells us about the relation we can have with our Child or Children. It is also used to know the timing of child birth. It also represents the other things or people related with 5th house as it is the planet with 5th hiighest degree like Education, Guiding/Counselling, Creativity, Love/Romance matters and Happiness etc.


2. So, when someone has Sun as Putra Karaka, this can be a situation where someone is gaining recognition and fame due to their children. Like, with many teenage celebrity figures, this is the case that their parents get recognition due to children’s success.


3. Sun’s dignity will decide whether it is early recognition and fame or delayed one. Sun’s dignity may also decide whether it is the case of fame or infamy due to children.


4. It also shows authority and recognition through creative puruits, education, guiding/counselling or love/romance partner. Like, someone’s partner can be a known face already and by getting into relationship with them, the native gains recognition and fame.


5. At the same time, it shows that there can be ego tussles between child-parent or romantic partners. How far that ego tussle will go depends on dignity of Sun and evolution level of people involved. It can also bring ego issues with teachers.


6. At the same time, person can gain a lot of recognition from creativity, sports and education.


7. This can also be a planetary position which indicates that native’s child may take-up the role of his Father in life at some point in life. Like, native’s child start supporting native in old age.


8. If Sun is losing the dignity then person may gain his authority and recognition through negative experiences or more efforts in matters of creativity, education etc. Like, it happens many a times that rejection in love motivates a person to achieve great heights in career.


9. If Sun is in good dignity then it shows good support between parent-child and they are beneficial to each other.


10. If any planet is conjunct with Sun then it adds its own flavor of things/representations which can bring or block the aforementioned results.


Dignity - Dignity of Sun would indicate how the native will attain the purpose of Sun as Putra Karaka in life? If Sun is in good dignity then good support can be provided by Child/Lover or things related with 5th house and person may get the same in early life. But if Sun is losing the dignity or further impacted by malefic then person may not receive this support till late life or person may be facilitated in a negative way. In later case, person may have lots of ego hurt or ego clashes in order to gain that support.


Final conclusion would depend on overall analysis of chart with lots of other factors along with Sun’s position.


Hope this helps. Thanks,
