How strong is Sun here?

Angular houses (1st, 4th, 7th and 10th) sit on the four main points of the chart. Traditional astrology treats planets here as the most prominent and influential, because they sit on the chart's key points.

The 10th house corresponds to Capricorn, ruled by Saturn. Sun doesn't rule Capricorn, so it is read as bringing its own style of identity, vitality and purpose to the house's themes.

House systems differ slightly, and the sign on the cusp of your 10th house adds detail. Your full natal chart shows the exact picture.
