Your core self is forged in depth and intensity.

Pluto square your Sun

Pluto squares your Sun for something like two years, most often in three separate passes, and the weight falls on the chart's core: the voice that says I am this, I do this, this is what I am for. A square forces a decision. Pluto does not decorate or advise; it removes what cannot hold and leaves what can, and it does that slowly, by steady pressure rather than one blow.

Jupiter square your Sun

Jupiter squares your Sun across a few weeks, and a retrograde near the degree can turn that into three separate passes over several months. Your Sun is the centre of you: the purpose you act from and the self you would defend. Jupiter inflates.

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.

Mars square your Sun

Mars squares your Sun twice in each two-year circuit, and each square is over within several days unless Mars is turning retrograde nearby, when it can hang on for weeks. Your Sun stands for identity and purpose, your need to matter; Mars is drive, anger and the will to win. At a square they rub, so every obstacle feels personal and every delay feels like an insult.

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.
