Being the fixed Atmakaraka or soul significator, it represents our soul, descending and reincarnating into lower, dense dimensions, in order to inevitably burn the karma, and, Surya is the one who "punishes" the soul, which is why the Sun is a natural malefic in Jyotish. Without the Sun, nothing could function and operate the way it does, it is impossible to even imagine the existence, being, without Surya, who not only enables all life in this part of the galaxy, but it also enables to each soul to take the long path of liberation from the physical world, by releasing itself, through the purest of act - from the ropes of karma.
