Scorpio

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.

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.

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.

Mercury square your Sun

Mercury squares your Sun briefly, two days at most, and your meaning and your words come slightly apart. Explanations land crooked, messages get misread, and a point sometimes has to be made twice because it did not land the first time, which is its own irritation. This is easily taken personally, as if your ability to express yourself had suddenly failed.
