The earth or the world as a whole is a male person (alone or together with a female person)
In the beginning it is dark. When the Sun first appears on the sky, primeval beings or part of them perish or turn into animals, spirits, stones
The Sun or the Moon is one-eyed (usually another eye was knocked or sucked out but sometimes this defect is not explained
The Moon is male, the Sun is also male or (much more rare) asexual
The sun and/or the moon are inanimate objects thrown up to the sky or fixed in the sky
After passing half of the its way across the sky (in the day time) or in the underworld (in the night time), the Sun stops to have a rest
The Sun is female, the Moon is male or (more rare) also female
Coming together of the Sun and the Moon is the reason of their eclipses
A bird or birds attack or shade the Sun or the Moon during an eclipse or at the sunrise and sunset
Suns are born and die every day
