In astrology, the Sun and Saturn are considered enemies of each other. Gods or demigods cannot behave like mortals. So we have to analyze the concept of enemies in an appropriate context and meanings. The sun is truth, the sun is knowledge; The sun is light. It is the place where our ancestors would finally go. After vasu and rudra, where it is believed that our parents attained status and received pinda from us, the last loka or state is Aditya. Vasu rupe ~, Rudra rupe ~ and finally Aditya Rupe ~ .. The Sun is the embodiment of all gods. He is the ultimate. He is the destroyer of sins.
The concept of sin is co-terminal with the life we live in this world. Past actions that are sinful in our past lives result in miseries in this present world. Miseries depend on the degree of sins we committed in our past lives. There are two gods who are credited with destroying sins. First of all, Lord Shiva. Second, the demigod Sun. It is easier to pray to Lord Shiva and wash away our past sins. But the second way is more difficult. Adithya is not easier to please. He is a strict disciplinarian. In the first and easiest way to please Lord Shiva, there are chances that we will commit sins again. But the second and hardest path is final.
It is born of the ultimate truth, knowledge and karma. It is this hard path that the rishis choose when making tapasya. (For a detailed study, see the concept of sin.) Step by step one reaches the state of Aditya and his material life comes to an end, which is the goal of all seekers of truth. It is freedom from the bondage of birth and rebirth. It is the achievement of divinity.
The sun burns everything. Our ignorance, our beliefs, our knowledge, which are born from lies, images, maya, that Rahu throws on our worlds. Knowledge and beliefs are so strong and ingrained in our minds, in our actions, that we refuse to believe in the ultimate truth. We are programmed to take refuge under clouds, false ceilings, like a frog taking refuge under a snake. This state of mind and our actions are created and developed by Saturn. Saturn is the representative of our false refuge. He creates maya through Rahu. All dirt, whether in the mind or in our physical presence in this world, is the abode of Saturn. It will not lead us to the path of truth, knowledge, and God. He creates falls, holes and blindness, so that we eternally revolve around and around this maya. This maya is so powerful and strong that not even the mighty Sun can escape.
So the two planes of operation of the fields are quite different. The concepts of Sun and Saturn are directly opposite to each other. They both act according to our past actions or karma. They are not enemies of each other. Because no two gods have feelings of hate or love. It’s mostly those trivial behaviors. They are above such pettiness. They act according to their nature. Both are necessary incarnations of this worldly life. The sun is the enemy of ignorance, falsehood, indiscipline and maya. Saturn is the enemy of light, discipline, truth, and knowledge. Saturn is the Mayan creator.
All these qualities are embodiments of mortal lives in this world; and definitely not the qualities of the Sun or Saturn. In this way, both are complementary and complementary to each other. They are not enemies; But the gods act in tandem, in harmony. One continues where the other ends. They are the enemies of certain actions of mortals. It is the mortal to choose his action. If one tries sincerely, punishes and disciplines, it is Saturn who is most pleased and removes the curtain of Maya from the path of seeking truth. Then the Sun forgives and destroys previous sins and shows the path of liberation through its light.
