If one has any squares to one’s Sun, one would have the hardest time with confidence and a strong sense of self. Oppositions are easier than squares.Oppositions make one go back and forth between opposite poles. Squares lock the energies. There is a distinct difference in difficulty between the two. As I outlined above, one could apply the same logic to squares and oppositions as was applied to trines and sextiles. I will address conjunctions later as those can go either way in terms of how they effect a person’s sense of self.Some conjunctions are easy. Some conjunctions are difficult. The Sun square Saturn would be a lock between one’s ego and a strong self doubt. One may feel very guilty for “selfishness”. One may feel great insecurity at a deep visceral level. Hence, this would be one of the harder Sun squares. Saturn oppose the Sun would be easier.One could go back and forth between having a strong ego and strong self doubt. The opposition is always a yin/yang between opposite sides. The Sun square Uranus would be someone who struggles with nonconformity but does not seem to resolve it . He feels locked in to wanting to be different but cannot integrate it in to his personality well. He may try to be rebellious in self defeating ways as he struggles to deal with his strong sense of rebellion. The person with the Sun/Uranus trine COULD use his rebellious nature in inventive ways.He may be an actual inventor. When the Sun touches Uranus in an easy aspect, we may have a creative genius.That is the difference between the trine and the square. I am not saying the square CANNOT do this but it is much more difficult. Sun square Neptune could make the person not able to deal with his imagination/escapist desires as they may get the best of him. The Sun oppose Neptune may make someone struggle with being too dreamy and idealistic. The person would go back and forth between trying to live in a dream world or trying to escape reality and forcing themselves back into reality. Any asteroid that touches the Sun will have a central influence in our identity. This can give us confidence or take it away by the nature of the asteroid. I will address this in another article.

I will add something.

Sometimes Mercury or Mars hard aspects to Uranus gives "better" genius results than easy aspects.(mars hard uranus person may die in a accident or suffer long term disability tough.)

Sun trine Uranus also gives self-healing, recuperative power. Native regens himself easily(psychological)

Ami Darling, Mercury cannot make a trine or a sextile to the Sun, for they are never more than 28° apart ! The only aspect they can make is a conjunction.

I agree Mert---1000%. If one has nothing to lose, it is easy to be strong.

I have an incredibly strong sense of self- almost too strong in some ways, to be honest. I have tons of squares to my Sun, but I feel that BECAUSE I have a lot of squares to my Sun, I've been tested a lot with my sense of self and it actually has made me become MORE SURE of who I am, not less sure of myself.

I have struggled with non-conformity, mostly when I was a child, but because I've done that, A LOT earlier than most people I know exactly who I am and who I am not, and I will not stray from that in my dealings with people.

I've also got Jupiter square Sun, and while I feel like that makes me a bit grandiose at times and over the top, overall, I've learned to at least become self-aware enough over time through experiences to know when I'm causing a stir.

To be honest, I fully believe that it's the easier aspects to the sun that are 'fuzzy' in who they are and how they express themselves. With trines and sextiles, you get the opportunity to kind of play with what you've got because you've never been tested like you have with the squares. I'm not sure about oppositions since they might see-saw back and forth. I also have sextiles to my Sun, and I think that they integrate into my personality to the point that they are often unnoticeable and in some ways discounted. That, to me, is not a strong sense of self.

Thanks so much. I love healthy discussion. I in no way am any sort of guru. I am a 3rd year student only!

The sun does indeed represent the self, but I feel like the ascendent will also play a roll in this as well because that represents the surface self. It's somewhat difficult to "separate" the self completely as well considering all of ones identity is part of a whole.

I have sun square my moon. I see how the two signs scratch against one another. Oppositions....both my parents have their sun and moon in opposite signs :\ It may not be as hard for people with oppositions as squares inside but outside for others around them, when they flip to the other one.... O_O

Have you written about sun square Pluto? That's what I've got, though separated by 5 degrees.

Well Uranus is great individuality and when it touches Mercury, the planet of the mind, one can be a genius but one can also be eccentric imo

Sun square Pluto
Sun square Jupiter

How about you tell me how they feel and I will try to see if I can meditate and research it with my various study groups and see what I come up with.
