The 3rd house governs siblings, communication, courage, short travels, and effort. It represents how we interact with our immediate environment and how we express ourselves through action. When the Sun aspects the 3rd house, it lights up these areas with a fiery, authoritative energy.
This aspect occurs when the Sun is placed in the 9th house, casting its full 7th aspect directly onto the 3rd house.

Effects of Sun's Aspect on 3rd House
1. Conflicts with Siblings
One of the most common effects of this aspect is ongoing tension or conflicts with siblings. The Sun's presence in the 9th house can make the native feel they hold moral or intellectual superiority. As a result, they may often clash with siblings who either challenge their views or display independent opinions.
Additionally, ego issues may arise, leading to competition, disagreements, or emotional distance among siblings.
2. Siblings Seem Egoistic or Overbearing
Interestingly, it’s not just the native who may be assertive—the siblings themselves may appear egoistic or proud in the eyes of the native. There could be a constant feeling of being undermined, ignored, or not given due respect by brothers or sisters.
This perception may or may not reflect reality, but the aspect can certainly cause friction in the sibling dynamic.
3. Unnecessary or Unwanted Travel
The 3rd house also governs short-distance travel, and when the Sun aspects it from the 9th house (which rules long-distance travel), it can lead to frequent, sudden, or even unnecessary journeys. These trips may feel forced or exhausting rather than enjoyable.
The individual may find themselves traveling for reasons they don’t fully resonate with—perhaps for family obligations, work duties, or to fix ongoing issues. These travels may bring stress instead of joy.
4. Strong Willpower and Communication
On the positive side, this aspect can make the native extremely courageous and bold in communication. They are not afraid to speak their mind and can be quite convincing in debates. However, this strength can sometimes come across as arrogance or domination, especially if they interrupt or overpower others in conversations.
5. Struggles in Balancing Dharma and Daily Duties
The Sun in the 9th house inspires the individual to seek a higher purpose or dharma, but its aspect on the 3rd house creates a tug-of-war between long-term vision (9th house) and daily effort (3rd house). The person may feel conflicted between following big ideals and managing daily responsibilities or relationships—especially with siblings.
