The Sun for Tula Lagna Is the 11th Lord
Tula lagna is Libra, so Venus owns the 1st and the Sun owns the 11th. The Sun is also debilitated in Libra. A stronger Sun, for this lagna, is an 11th-house project, not a project to replace Venus.
Lordship before any tip
From Libra, Leo is the 11th sign. The Sun rules Leo, so the Sun is the 11th lord: gains, networks, and the elder sibling in classical lists. Venus rules Libra and Taurus, the 1st and the 8th, so Venus is both the person and a dusthana lord. People who try to strengthen the Sun in order to strengthen the lagna have picked the wrong graha. The lagna lord is Venus. The Sun's job is the 11th. Sunday worship, wheat, and respect toward the father are traditional solar observances. They support the Sun's topics, including the father and the 11th, if the Sun is able to receive them.
Debilitation sits on the lagna sign
The Sun debilitates in Libra. If the Sun occupies the 1st house for this lagna, it is a debilitated 11th lord in the lagna: gains-weakness worn on the person. If the Sun occupies Aries, it is exalted, and Aries is the 7th house, so an exalted 11th lord sits in marriage. That is often the best solar address for Tula, and it still colors marriage with the Sun. Neecha bhanga has rules. Do not declare it because the person earns well. Saturn, yogakaraka here because it owns the 4th and the 5th, can do more for the life than a forced solar rite.
Six years, and the father
Sun mahadasha lasts 6 years. For Tula that chapter is 11th-house years plus the father's signification, not a rebirth of the lagna. The first antardasha is Sun-Sun, short, from the product of the years divided by 120. If the Sun is in the 7th, those 6 years also touch marriage because of the house, not because the Sun is the 7th lord. The 7th lord of Tula is Mars. Strengthen Mars if the question is the spouse. Strengthen Venus if the question is the person. Use Sunday for the Sun only when the question is gains, authority, or the father.
