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-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.
