Surya in Vedic Astrology

Surya or Sun in the occult science of Vedic Astrology is considered as the king of all planets. It signifies power, position, authority, vitality, name, fame, gold, heart and much more. Sun is the natural significator of government affairs, jobs in the government sector and also political positions.

The position of Sun or Surya in the horoscope of a person is key to determining material success in that person’s life. There are many occult remedial measures that are undertaken to pacify an afflicted Sun in the horoscope to ensure a smooth road towards success & prosperity in life.

Future Points offers you an opportunity to book the Surya Puja for being performed in your name and receive the life-transforming blessings of Surya Dev.

Surya Puja on Makar Sankranti

There are 12 signs that constitute the zodiac belt and planet Sun takes about a month to traverse each sign. The time when Sun enters a sign is called ‘Sankranti’ and therefore, there are a total of 12 Sankrantis that occur in a year.

However, when the Sun enters the sign of ‘Makar’ or Capricorn, the occasion turns into a festival which is called Makar Sankranti. It is a festival which is celebrated across India under different names and with varying traditions across regions.

Makar Sankranti is a spiritually charged occasion when people offer their prayers to Surya Dev and make donations to the poor & needy.

The festival of Makar Sankranti also marks the beginning of the special period of ‘Uttarayan’ during which we witness the Sun advancing towards the Northern Hemisphere. The holy scriptures describe the period of Uttarayan as highly beneficial for those who wish to raise the levels of their consciousness through ‘Sadhna’ or spiritual practice.

This is a time when positive cosmic energies are very supportive for realizing both spiritual as well as wordly objectives.

Therefore, it is recommended that one must have a Surya Puja performed in his/her name on Makar Sankranti to receive the incredibly powerful blessings of Surya Dev.

However, a person can get the Surya Puja performed on his/her behalf on any Sankranti in a month or even on a Sunday to ensure that he/she gets the blessings of Surya Dev to succeed & prosper in life.
