Your core self lives through the mind and the word.
Pluto trine your Sun
Pluto trines your Sun through a long season, coming and going in three slow passes, and the force that usually arrives as pressure arrives instead as backing. The Sun stands for the centre of you: what you are for, what you will put your name to. Pluto is depth and power, the capacity to end something and begin again.
Neptune sextile your Sun
Neptune sextiles your Sun at Neptune's pace, which means at least a year, with a slow back-and-forth of several passes. The Sun is your self and your purpose; Neptune dissolves outlines, softens certainty and opens the way to imagination, compassion and faith. In a sextile the meeting is gentle and cooperative.
Uranus conjunct your Sun
Uranus sits on your Sun for the greater part of a year, occasionally more, crossing it up to three times as it moves forward, backs up and moves on, and few contacts in the sky ring a louder alarm clock. The Sun is identity and purpose: the core you would still call yourself in any company. Uranus brings shocks, unconventional turns and the long-overdue break.
Saturn sextile your Sun
Saturn sextiles your Sun across several months; a retrograde nearby can open it twice more before it closes. The Sun carries your will and your sense of who you are; Saturn adds patience, structure and a feel for what lasts. Joined by a sextile, they make slow, sensible effort on your own aims pay off, and they do it quietly, without the drama Saturn brings to its harder angles.
Jupiter sextile your Sun
For several weeks Jupiter and your Sun sit sixty degrees apart, and if Jupiter goes retrograde close to the degree the contact can repeat, making three passes in all across many months. Your Sun is what you steer by: the purpose you would put your name to. Jupiter widens things, adding optimism, generosity and room to move.
Sun sextile your Sun
Twice yearly the Sun comes into sextile with its own birth degree, keeping the angle about two days before moving on, and you get a mild, friendly echo of your birthday without the fuss. Your natal Sun marks the self you keep steering toward — the thing you hope people remember you by, where your pride lives, what makes a day feel properly yours. When the travelling Sun stands sixty degrees from that point, the two are on easy terms and no argument is needed.
Venus trine your Sun
Venus trines your Sun, a brief and gentle contact, and while it lasts pleasure and affection flow easily toward you. The things you do simply because they are yours — your style, your efforts, your way of being — are met with unusual warmth. What eases is the effort of being liked.
Mercury sextile your Sun
Mercury's sextile to your Sun lasts two days or thereabouts; while it does, your mind is quick and your confidence easy to find. Mercury is the mind putting itself into words; the Sun is the person behind them. A sextile keeps them on friendly terms, so what you say sounds like you, which is rarer than it should be and worth spending on something that matters.
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.
