Your core self is built through responsibility and mastery.
Neptune square your Sun
Neptune squares your Sun, and the stretch it covers is long and uneven: a year at the very least and often nearer two, with exactness reached on three passes or more as Neptune creeps forward and drifts back. Your Sun is the outline of you: your purpose, the things you would stand up and defend, the direction you assume you are heading in. Neptune dissolves outlines; it works through fog and longing and a slow loss of edges.
Saturn square your Sun
Most of a year can go by while Saturn squares your Sun, with the exact square usually landing three times as Saturn loops backward and forward over the degree, and the whole stretch feels uphill. Your Sun stands for the self you intend to grow into, and for the aims you would defend in public. Saturn deals in limits, time and proof.
Mercury conjunct your Sun
Mercury crosses your Sun about once a year, normally over a day or two, stretching to a week when it slows to turn retrograde close by. Your Sun is where you live from — what you mean, what you are for. Mercury is the mind in words: thinking, talking, writing, the quick sorting of what you hear.
Sun-sign horoscopes read the sky against your Sun. For the most accurate read, also read your rising sign — if you know it, that version is usually the truer story.
