Sun in the 8th house :

What does Sun represent ? Sun represents the ego, our self esteem, the light and fame which makes us visible among the world. It also says about the one’s own direction in life. North Node (Rahu), which is Rahu gives us what to focus in this life. Whereas, Sun provides the direction in life. That’s the reason why Sun in 1st house most often creates self made person.
