12 Sun Mantras: In Honor of the Fall Equinox

According to Eastern spiritual tradition, there are twelve spiritual gifts of the sun that can be obtained through the chanting of mantras that invoke the desired qualities. Sun mantras are chanted to increase these specific gifts, and also to bring illumination, healing abilities, and spiritual magnetism. Healing from the mantras is associated with the heart and circulatory system, and the thymus gland.
