Your core self wants to shine, create, and give warmth from the centre.
Pluto opposition your Sun
Pluto opposing your Sun applies steady pressure to who you take yourself to be, and it applies that pressure through a person: somebody with leverage over your situation, or somebody who simply refuses to see you the way you would prefer to be seen. Situations arrive that test your self-image, and decisions that would normally be small start to feel weighted with consequence.
Neptune trine your Sun
Neptune trines your Sun: the compassionate, idealistic side of you comes forward, and for a while you see your own life through a wider and kinder lens than you usually allow. This long, soft passage asks very little of you except attention.
Uranus sextile your Sun
Uranus sextiles your Sun for a year or so, sometimes longer as it slows, reverses and returns across the degree. Your Sun marks the core of you: purpose, character, the person you would defend under questioning.
Saturn trine your Sun
For several months, and longer when Saturn's backward loop carries it over the same degree a second and third time, Saturn trines your Sun and effort starts turning into results without the usual grinding. Your Sun is your purpose, the person you spend your days being; Saturn supplies patience, form and a liking for the long view.
Jupiter conjunct your Sun
Jupiter crosses your Sun, a passage of a few weeks that can stretch to three crossings across several months when Jupiter turns retrograde near the spot. Your Sun is the core of you, the self you would recognise in a mirror and the purpose you would defend; Jupiter enlarges, encourages and opens doors.
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.
