Your core self is expressed through usefulness and craft.
Uranus square your Sun
Uranus squares your Sun for nearly two years, usually hitting the exact square three times while it advances, pauses, retreats and advances again. Your Sun is the part that answers to your name, the self you stand behind and the aim you steer by; Uranus is the sudden break and the impatience with whatever has gone stale. A square puts them at odds, so the restlessness shows up not as a pleasant itch but as a strain, a sense that some arrangement you live inside has shrunk around you and presses on you.
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.
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.
