Highlight of the story: Certain daily habits can weaken the energies of the nine planets in Vedic astrology. It offers insights into the spiritual and karmic impact of actions like disrespect, indulgence, or emotional imbalance, along with simple remedies to restore planetary harmony.
In Vedic astrology, planets are not merely distant celestial bodies but powerful forces that influence our karma, behavior, relationships, and life path. Each graha (planet) corresponds to certain values, emotions, and karmic lessons. When we go against these principles—consciously or unconsciously—we weaken the energy of that planet within us.
The Sun represents your soul, ego, authority, health, and father. It is the light of dharma, purpose, and willpower.
