Mother is normally a public person with executive capability, the leader-manager in her home.

The mother wishes the child to follow in her professional footsteps. the native 's parenting style is independent and rational, with less regard for traditions and more enthusiasm for incisive critical thought. (Any influence of Shani will restrain freedom.)

Exception = Simha, where Shukra goes combust, leaving the native dramatically talented but not classically attractive.

Surya in kendra Bhava 4

Guardian

Produces a brightly-lit aura rooted in home; confidence in the importance of local rhythms and habits; guardian roles such as schoolteacher, police, parent, and property-vehicle owner.

In bhava-4, some tendency to idealize the mother and her people as a method of calling attention to oneself. As well, Surya-4 tends to romanticize the convention of property ownership and seek praise for holding the purported entitlements regarding ownership and protection of the land.

If the Surya-4 native is herself a mother, expect an assertive style of home management. (Mitigated as usual when Surya is weakened in Shani's or Shukra's sign or via drishti from Shani.)

Bright, Self-Assured Guardian

Dramatically patriotic. In the culture wars, Surya in Simha or Surya in Mesha in bhava-4 may rise to protect the Old Ways (4) of doing things, including extreme defense-of-culture or fencing of property.

Policing of the polis to ensure recognition of the local customs and accepted behaviors. Political rights of the settlers and primacy of the Customary Way of Life.

Seeks a centrally important, parental role in sheltered environments; may feel insulted when others especially "outsiders" express a competing opinion. Emotional Stress, caused by those who do not properly recognize the righteous centrality of the native, can find its way into the heart. Therefore cardiac health should be well-managed.

Das / Behari comment on Surya-4

"You view life in a regal way, with a thread of detachment - making the changes of life, or living itself, something you "view" rather than identify with.

It makes you detached from the masses.

You require people to offer significant things in exchange for your friendship -- or in other words, you want significant people as your friends.

Therefore, ordinary people are not usually found to be very important to you in your own personal life.

Therefore, you are faced with vindictiveness from jealous people, even though you deal very nicely.

You will earn money and power by your own efforts,

and those who oppose you will find it difficult to "win".

Your later career will tend to be better than your earlier attempts, and you will gradually attain a better situation and a strong personal character .

The first half of life is made difficult in a number of ways but gradually things improve.

You will suffer deeply due to bad leaders, and may also experience weakness in the heart, or heart trouble.

You will acquire a very prosperous career,
but will suffer in some attacks or litigation."
