Planetary Aspects
Sun conjunct Moon
Unless this conjunction of the Sun and Moon occurs in different signs, you have a “double dose” of the same sign, and that sign assumes considerable importance in your chart. This position also means that you were born around the time of a New Moon. Whether you were born before or after the New Moon is significant, too. A Sun-Moon conjunction can behave somewhat like an Aries personality, even if the alignment doesn’t occur in Aries.
Because your wants (Sun) and needs (Moon) are aligned, you have a notable singleness of purpose. For the most part, you come across as rather uncomplicated concerning what you want out of life and your means of getting to where you want to go. You are able to make decisions without too much struggle, primarily because it is not your tendency to spread yourself around to find all of your options–you prefer to settle on a particular route and then go for it. You don’t like to struggle with many options, and you often have your finger on the pulse of exactly what you need, want, and are willing to do.
You can also be very much in touch with your need for others, or at least a significant other. You are very sensitive, and quite possibly a creature of habit. You are attached to the past and your heritage. Even so, you can also be emotionally impulsive. You possess impressive vitality if you don’t burn it all up too quickly, and you don’t have much understanding of people who go through a lot of physical and emotional ups and downs. You can be highly intuitive. Because you are in touch with the moment, you can read people and situations quite readily.
Sun sextile Moon
With the Sun and Moon in harmony with one another in your natal chart, generally speaking, your emotions and will are at peace with one another, suggesting a reasonably balanced personality. The “messages” you received in childhood were explicit, or at least not contradictory overall, and you have a stronger sense of purpose and appreciation of harmony than most people. You can be personally popular, likely because you expect harmony in your relationships. You are unusually open to relationships, and you’re attractive to others. A certain level of self-confidence and a sense of security make you quite easy to deal with on many levels. Your relaxed, easygoing disposition puts others at ease.
Because your expectation of harmony is well-developed, you may not be prepared for conflict, and you might often avoid rocking the boat. In fact, you may often acquiesce, if only to maintain a feeling of balance and harmony. After all, conflict is something you not only dislike, it’s something you may fear. In some ways, you may be too accepting–of yourself and others. You may benefit from questioning life more often, or you run the risk of taking things for granted. Even so, you are prepared to put effort into making things work.
Your vitality is usually good and quite constant. Unless other parts of your chart strongly suggest otherwise, you are not a very hard-driving person, but your constitution is strong. You seem less prone to the kinds of ups and downs that plague those with challenging aspects between the Sun and Moon. This is because your goals and emotional needs are in harmony, despite being different. You have a fantastic ability to understand your limits, and this positively impacts your life in many areas. You are also a brilliant problem-solver.
Sun square Moon
The Sun forms a square to the Moon in your natal chart. You may have noticed that your Sun sign and Moon sign descriptions often seem to contradict one another. In fact, they both reside inside you, and you live with these contradictions. You might often feel at cross purposes with yourself as a result. This is not an insurmountable obstacle, and it also has many benefits, but it’s important to understand since it’s an influential, core aspect in your chart. The key is to find ways to accept, express, and identify with both “sides” to your personality in ways that support you.
With your Sun square your Moon, what you want and what you need seem to conflict frequently. At times, you can be your own worst enemy as a result. You may seem to attract challenging situations into your life as a subconscious attempt to recreate the tension of early childhood or to deal with this fundamental inner conflict. However, with time, practice, and growth, you learn to manage this root struggle so that it no longer works against you.
You may experience a deep drive or desire to achieve and accomplish something important in your life. For whatever reason, you may not have felt needed or accepted in early life, perhaps in part due to internalizing a clash between parents or parent figures, the receiving of entirely different messages from them or the world, or a chaotic or overstimulating early life. You may instinctively feel the need to prove yourself. As such, you can be intense and driven, and your strength is incredible, indeed.
You might frequently struggle between your need for nurture and your need for independence. When you get the autonomy you seem to crave, you might feel unsupported by others. When you receive the support you desire, you feel smothered. This internal clash may be especially apparent in your relationships, particularly in the first half of your life before you become aware of these patterns. Confrontations and challenges are frequent–not only with romantic partners, but also on the job, with friends, and so forth. You learn a lot about yourself through these.
You have a lot of drive and spunk. You are a resilient creature! Although you may grapple with fluctuating energy, you are motivated to accomplish and succeed. Ideally, you learn through experience to achieve something for yourself rather than to prove your worth to others, which never works out for you quite the way you’d like it!
You are strong and capable, always reaching a little higher, questioning your limits and others’ restrictions. You are willing and ready to grow and improve. You’re a colorful, interesting person, and you take little for granted.
Sun trine Moon
With the Sun and Moon in harmony with one another in your natal chart, generally speaking, your emotions and will are at peace with one another, suggesting a reasonably balanced personality. The “messages” you received in childhood were explicit, or at least not contradictory overall, and you have a stronger sense of purpose and appreciation of harmony than most people. You can be personally popular, likely because you expect harmony in your relationships. You are unusually open to relationships, and you’re attractive to others. A certain level of self-confidence and a sense of security make you quite easy to deal with on many levels. Your relaxed, easygoing disposition puts others at ease.
Because your expectation of harmony is well-developed, you may not be prepared for conflict, and you might often avoid rocking the boat. In fact, you may often acquiesce, if only to maintain a feeling of balance and harmony. After all, conflict is something you not only dislike, it’s something you may fear. In some ways, you may be too accepting–of yourself and others. You may benefit from questioning life more often, or you run the risk of taking things for granted.
Your vitality is usually good and quite constant. Unless other parts of your chart strongly suggest otherwise, you are not a very hard-driving person, but your constitution is strong. You seem less prone to the kinds of ups and downs that plague those with challenging aspects between the Sun and Moon. This is because your goals and emotional needs are in harmony, despite being different. You have a fantastic ability to understand your limits, and this positively impacts your life in many areas.
Sun quincunx Moon
With your Sun and Moon in a quincunx or inconjunct aspect to one another, what you think you should do and how you feel about something are often at odds. You tend to act on your will at the expense of your feelings, and to act on your feelings at the expense of your will or ego–two things that certainly leave you feeling unsatisfied. Integration, of course, would be ideal, and this is achievable after trial and error and as you mature.
Uncertainty about what it is you want from life can be the source of much guilt, and guilt can fuel an automatic response of trying too hard to please others. Living up to the demands of others may too easily become a lifestyle for you. You might find that you are always making adjustments and compromises. In your relationships with others, you may offer too much to a person, and then feel like you are being taken advantage of. You seem to expect that you have to make compromises in life in order to get what you want, but in the process, you undervalue your own needs. You might consider focusing on deprogramming this automatic response to –or expectation from– life.
You tend to experience bursts of assertions of independence and autonomy, but when you do so, you feel guilty. However, you are not happy with yourself when you are expressing dependency. You would benefit greatly from working on accepting both the Sun and the Moon (your needs for autonomy and self-expression as indicated by the Sun, and your needs for comfort and closeness as indicated by the Moon) in your personality. This helps you avoid sabotaging relationships (and life goals) with self-defeating attitudes, and can lead to a feeling of being whole.
Sun opposition Moon
The Sun opposing the Moon in your natal chart means that you were born around the time of a Full Moon. This aspect has quite a bit of significance in your chart since its an aspect that occurs between the lights (the Sun and Moon).
People born when the Sun opposes the Moon can experience an internal struggle between their needs and their wants. In contrast to the New Moon personality, the Full Moon personality is inclined towards lack of focus and indecision. However, this is also a brilliant position for mediation, objectivity, and understanding.
Your ability to be objective is both an asset and a liability, simply because when you decide on one route, you seem to be pulled in another direction at the same time. Something tugs at you and you begin to question your stance. “But what if…” and “on the other hand…” are frequent and can seem to plague you at times. While New Moon people have an Aries style about them, Full Moon natives have a distinct Libra energy about them, in that they are always aware of the opposing point of view, the other side of the coin, and so forth. This means that you can sometimes seem to be a Libra even if you’re not a Libra!
Your inner struggle is most evident with your vitality as both the Sun and the Moon strongly influence the vitality. You can experience many ups and downs, and it can be difficult to know if it’s physical or emotional. In fact, it’s likely both. You could spend a week working hard, and the following week you lack motivation and find it hard to accomplish much. Your energy fluctuates more than most people, and it is very much a reflection of what is going on inside.
It’s very likely that the messages you received in your early life (in terms of what was expected of you) were conflicting, and even opposite. Some people born under the Full Moon viewed their parents/caregivers as two very different and separate individuals who each wanted something very different from their child. Your parents or parent figures “stood for” two very different things, and you, as a child, internalized this.
A vital life lesson for you and others with this Sun opposition Moon aspect is to learn to look within for happiness, as the tendency is strong to look outside of yourself for fulfillment. This may be why people with this aspect seem inclined to form serious relationships at an early age, simply because of this tendency to try to find an answer to happiness from an “other.” Relationships (early ones) may be temperamental partly because of this prematurity, and partly because of complicated needs. Full Moon people are also more apt to seek counseling because of this need to find answers.
You appear to be very self-aware. You’re inclined to entertain a myriad of different points of view and perspectives. You can be an excellent psychologist as you’re able to read character and uncover motivations–but with an important caveat: if you are too emotionally close to the situation, you fumble. The truth is, although you know much about how people tick, you may spend a good part of your life uncovering and learning more about yourself. Generally, this is done through comparisons or through the mirror of relationships.
You can sometimes frustrate yourself and others with your indecisiveness and frequent changes of mind (and heart). Your changes of heart are unlikely a form of insincerity–they are the result of an internal struggle that is very real and very confusing to live with! You should watch carefully for over-identifying with one side of the opposition (either the Sun sign or Moon sign) and projecting the qualities of the other onto a partner. You could find that you’re often drawn to friends or partners who are polar opposites to you.
Sun opposition Moon people can be temperamental, insecure, and very sensitive. The ability to put themselves in someone else’s shoes, and to consider other points of view, is a true asset. However, at some point in their lives, they need to uncover what it is they truly want. This comes easy to New Moon people, and can be a life-long struggle for Full Moon people. On the other hand, it is extremely easy for a Full Moon personality to understand others’ points of view–something that doesn’t come as easily to a New Moon personality.
Sun opposition Moon people are generally interesting and complex. Born under a Full Moon, you can be a bit “loony,” likely manifesting itself in a unique and delightful sense of humor.
Look for a planet that might trine and sextile the Sun-Moon opposition for a way to release the tension the opposition creates. Somehow, some way, through that planet, its sign, and its house position, the Sun opposition Moon person can find an answer to the struggle. Look also to the sign polarity involved for more details of the struggle. If it’s Aries and Libra, for example, there is a conflict between two equal drives to be independent and to depend on others.
Sun conjunct Mercury
With the Sun conjunct Mercury in your natal chart, you have much mental energy. You are virtually always in a position to think about what you want, and this is often an interruption! Your logic and analysis can sometimes get in the way when just letting things happen may serve your purpose better.
However, you are intelligent and communicative. You take a lot of pride in your intellectual capacities. You may need to consciously choose to listen more than think/speak. Your mind is going so quickly, or your enthusiasm is so strong that you may be busy thinking about what to say next. As far as studying or learning goes, you may be better off reading the material than listening to a teacher. These traits come from a strong need to take an active role in communications. It can be challenging for you to listen and absorb information passively.
Your opinions are usually strong, and you are an independent thinker. You can take it quite personally if you’re not understood or heard, or if your views are pushed aside, ignored, or criticized. With the Sun conjunct Mercury, you’re an expressive and animated speaker and communicator. You have a wonderfully unique “take” on life, and you have much confidence in your ability to get what you want through the power of words, whether written, spoken, or both.
Sun conjunct Venus
Social relationships are a big focus with Sun conjunct Venus in the natal chart. You’re charming, and most of the time, you have an easy-going manner. It’s usually easy for you to be personally popular, to come across pleasantly, and to be liked and appreciated, and these things are quite important to you. Venus is a peace-making, harmony-loving planet, and with your Sun conjunct Venus, you are always looking for ways to find peace and harmony. You are brilliant at restoring balance. You are diplomatic and a veritable expert at smoothing over (and sometimes glossing over) problems. You’re usually openhanded with others–tolerant and accepting. Some people with this aspect can be superficial and two-faced or very much tied up with appearances. They might be too agreeable, too pleasant (at the expense of honesty), and downright lazy at times. However, this aspect also offers an excellent eye for style and pleasing surroundings. You have distinct and refined taste, enjoying luxury and comfort more than most.
You’re gracious, often romantic, and sometimes romantically impulsive. You tend to rely on the power of attraction to bring others to you rather than aggressively pursuing them. There is perhaps some vanity involved here–you are most attracted to people who express interest in you, or who respond well to your charms! You are not inherently competitive in the aggressive sense of the word, and you are not especially interested in a chase. Instead, you work your charms and draw people to you. Keywords: attractive, pleasing, and charming.
Sun conjunct Mars
With your Sun conjunct Mars, you have personal presence. You may discover that people are rarely indifferent towards you. You have a courageous air about you, and you exude confidence even if you’re not always feeling it. Many with this position are highly active and energetic people, and most are confrontational. You get right to the point, go right for the jugular, and make things happen. Some might say that you’re impatient, but not in a nervous sense of the word–you simply can’t wait around for things to happen. You prefer to be involved.
You have a competitive spirit, and you like to win. Channeled into sports and games, you make a formidable opponent. Mind you, sports that require strategy may not be your forte, simply because you are inclined to apply force to get to your goals, unless other strong indicators in your chart suggest otherwise. If not channeled this way, you make a formidable business opponent! Those without a “channel” run the risk of stirring things up or looking for a fight, getting all fired up and hot under the collar, and stirring up trouble at every turn. Watch for a need to prove yourself. Properly channeled, though, you’re gutsy, not afraid of conflict, bold, and quite daring. You enjoy a good chase or challenge. You’re also a survivor!
Sun sextile Mars
With the Sun sextile Mars in your natal chart, you are naturally enterprising. You have potent stores of energy you can draw upon when needed. You respond to problems or challenges with a spirited, enthusiastic, and admirable confidence. Naturally competitive, you are well-received mainly because this trait is sincere, unforced, and unaffected.
You truly believe in fair play and are in love with life. When expressing competitiveness and courage, it suits you well. You are not innately combative, but you won’t shrink from a confrontation if necessary. Generally, your physical vitality runs high. Self-preservation and survival instincts are strong.
You enjoy competitive sports or games, but not violence. Breaking the rules of a competitive game is particularly upsetting to you. You are more able than most to control your desires, aggressions, and instincts. You know how to be fair–and expect others to be fair. As such, sneaky behaviors, uncontrolled impulses, violence, and rage are offensive to you.
You are an effective strategist but mostly prefer to be direct and straightforward. Choosing to be engaged, on the move, and stimulated, you want to participate and get involved. Your strong initiative makes you a self-starter.
Refusing to push or dominate, you nevertheless often take the lead. Certainly, you can be an influential leader, more by example than by theory. This aspect in your natal chart adds a distinct layer of confidence, courage, daring, verve, and sincerity to your nature.
Sun square Mars
With the Sun square Mars in your natal chart, you are a leader at heart, although there can be times when you step on yourself as you seek to achieve your goals. Impatience and ego issues can sometimes get in the way. You can be intense as if you’re filled with energy that’s not always easily channeled!
As a child, you may have encountered resistance, blockages, or clashes with a key person. These experiences, although they may have temporarily affected your self-image and confidence, have also shaped your resilience and strength, which are now integral parts of your personality.
Your competitiveness or a “me-first” attitude is not always dominant in your personality, but it can be a strong theme in your life. The fighter persona may have been most apparent in youth when you may have been described as a “bundle of energy” or others remarked that you couldn’t sit still. The Sun-Mars square in your birth chart generates abundant energy that’s challenging to direct in childhood. Later in life, ideally, you learn to channel some of it into productive avenues–perhaps through career, sport, or any area where competitiveness is an asset.
Nevertheless, you can encounter more conflict than most or rub people the wrong way. You’re motivated to get things done, take action rather than simply talk about something, and get from point A to point B as quickly as possible. Those who know you well might describe you as temperamental or even hot-headed. Indeed, you are easily frustrated and inclined toward impulsive actions and assertions of your will.
You’ve faced conflict in your life and aren’t particularly afraid of it! You’re no stranger to being blocked from asserting yourself, either. As such, when you face a challenge or a roadblock, you don’t run away from it or hide under the covers feeling sorry for yourself. You meet challenges head-on and work well with creative tension- you even thrive on it!
Watch for defensiveness or touchiness that gets in the way of growth and healthy relationships. Learn to discern when conflicts and clashes are unnecessary, only serving to set you back. Look for ways to make full use of your talents to pioneer, innovate, lead, overcome obstacles, and strive.
Sun trine Mars
With the Sun trine Mars in your natal chart, your resilience shines through. There’s a distinct layer of enthusiasm, self-motivation, and initiative to your personality. Whether this trat is apparent to others depends on the aspect’s position relative to the angles of your chart. But rest assured, it’s a powerful part of who you are.
Your first instinct is that you can do it! You not only rise readily to a challenge but also demonstrate a remarkable ability to cooperate and get along well with others. Your independence, coupled with your cooperative nature, often earns you the respect and favor of those in authority, be it parents, teachers, or bosses. This unique advantage is a testament to your balanced and respected personality.
Your endurance and ability to bounce back are standout traits. You don’t just talk the talk, you lead by your actions. Your instincts and impulses are often powerful and accurate, guiding you towards success. While winning is enjoyable, you maintain a sense of fairness and won’t step over others to reach the finish line. A significant influence, perhaps a parent or guardian, instilled in you the spirit to enjoy life and pursue your desires directly and confidently. You have little patience for indirectness and prefer when people interact with you straightforwardly.
Sun opposition Mars
With the Sun opposite Mars in your natal chart, you were also born with Mars retrograde, making you quite unique in your approach to others and in how you pursue your desires.
From experiencing more than usual anger from others or spirited situations in your youth, to now feeling more equipped to direct the competitive energy of this aspect into productive avenues, your journey of learning and growth is evident. You may have faced frustrating circumstances due to overthinking or underthinking your actions, but with time, you’ve learned to tame reactiveness.
Recognizing and accepting the competitive, striving side of your personality can be a life-changing realization. The powerful work of learning to channel anger constructively is a significant part of your journey. Picking your battles wisely and avoiding jumping to conclusions, particularly assuming someone is against you before there’s proof, are critical life strategies for you.
It’s important to watch for defensiveness, touchiness, or volatility, which can work against you. Instead, focus on setting small, short-term challenges for yourself. By gradually building up to more complex or longer-term plans, you’ll develop more patience and self-confidence, reassuring you of your ability to manage and overcome challenges.
This aspect in your natal chart is powerful for strategy, creativity, courage, and initiative.
Sun conjunct Jupiter
With the Sun conjunct Jupiter in your birth chart, you possess a unique blend of enthusiasm and optimism, a truly special trait. Unless Saturn is also involved with this aspect, you radiate a genuine expectation of the best—from yourself, from others, and from life. Your preference to see the good in the world is a testament to your unique perspective.
Of course, your confidence in everything turning out all right can sometimes get you into trouble. Over-indulgence in food or drink, gambling, shopping—whatever your pleasure—is a high possibility, simply because you can sometimes procrastinate and put too much faith in life fixing things on its own. For example, you might eat just for the sake of eating, indulge in expensive items, temporarily forgetting the reality of the bill arriving the following month, and so forth. These habits, if left unchecked, can lead to health issues, financial strain, or other negative consequences. It can be challenging to save money or do other safeguarding tasks that help out your future self.
The truth is, many times, it seems like you have a guardian angel who sweeps in and saves the day, sometimes at the very last minute. It may seem that you “get away with” more than most people. But inevitably, you’ll face some consequences for excesses, such as an expanding waistline or growing debt.
Despite these challenges, your cheerful outlook and resourcefulness shine through. You are not particularly competitive, but you accomplish quite a bit. Your willingness to help others rather than argue with them is a testament to your fair, big-hearted, and sincere nature. Generous with your time and money, you are easy to like! However, it’s important to note that because you tend to overestimate your capabilities, you sometimes promise more than you can deliver.
Some people with this aspect can be self-righteous and moralistic. Others express Jupiter’s teaching side. Some are prone to exaggeration, although their stories are so interesting that people tend to overlook this flaw. Although largely positive and optimistic, you are not immune to depression. Although short-lived, your downs can be dramatic, simply because you are mentally unprepared for these times.
You are truly gifted with spiritual optimism and a broad perspective. It comes naturally to you to see potentials and possibilities. Your faith in goodness is a powerful tool that can help you manifest or create positive situations. You’re likely to make a significant impact on the people around you and on the world. Bringing joy to others is not just a goal, it’s a calling that fulfills you.
Sun sextile Jupiter
Endowed with generosity and friendliness, some might feel you’re lucky in life. You attract good things with a positive frame of mind and a charitable disposition. Rarely entirely “down and out,” with the Sun in harmonious aspect to Jupiter in your chart, you are well-received, helpful, and well-informed. Perhaps you’ve been the go-to person for advice in your circle. You may enjoy travel and have a special affection for foreign places and people. Generally not very competitive, and for the most part, not combative, you are well-liked.
At the core of your being, you are a person of strong morals and unwavering faith in life and in people. You have a natural inclination to see the good in situations and in people, and you believe in the principles of order, equality, and law. Your patience wears thin when faced with those who disregard these principles. Your word is your bond, and your sincerity is a trait that can be relied upon. Helping you generate good karma and fortunate situations is your ability to give back and share. It can be your destiny to improve, advance, and grow.
Looking on the bright side is not just a skill, it’s your forte. In fact, people turn to you for a pleasing dose of faith and optimism. Your quick chuckle and irresistible appeal to humor make you a source of joy. Some might even call you jolly. Even if you’re less conspicuous, your faith and willingness to find humor in life are nevertheless apparent, bringing lightness to those around you.
Sun square Jupiter
While your intentions are noble, the Sun-Jupiter square aspect in your natal chart may lead you to overextend yourself. It’s important to remember that this is an opportunity for growth. For instance, you might overlook practical details, accumulate debt, indulge in excesses like food and drink, and make commitments beyond your capacity. However, as you gain experience, you might discover that stopping once you’re ahead sometimes is doable and leads to greater success.
For the most part, you find help for your excesses. Because your heart is in the right place, others are often there for you. Of course, if excessive behavior becomes a pattern and you continually face light consequences, the danger is bypassing the lesson and relying on getting an “out.” However, many people with this aspect avoid falling into the trap of losing their sincerity.
The tendency to live beyond your means remains a challenge, as do mood swings. You can go through periods of intense highs when you are excessively optimistic. These periods are so marked that they could seem unnatural, and a fall seems inevitable. It’s crucial to commit to balancing your outlook. Another possible problem with this combination is making promises you intend to keep but having problems with following through. Watch for overplaying your hand, as your hopefulness and vision are wonderful traits as is. Self-control is important to cultivate. Watch for an addiction to the sensation of hope or optimism, as this can convince you to push too far.
Your innate qualities are truly remarkable. You are not just generous and helpful, but also a beacon of inspiration for others. Your humor and fun-loving nature bring joy to those around you.
Knowledgeable and giving of your time, you have many talents–aim to discover them!
Sun trine Jupiter
This Sun-Jupiter aspect in your natal chart is a nice boost. It’s one indication that you naturally attract benefits, success, and smooth situations your way.
This aspect reveals a strong inclination towards philosophical and broad-minded thinking. While it can sometimes lead to a laid-back attitude, your thirst for knowledge and new experiences is insatiable. You’re spirited, fortunate, and generous. This aspect hints at potential success and good luck with publishing, law, medicine, and education, unless Jupiter is beleagured. Your unwavering commitment to justice and fairness is evident in most aspects of your life. You have a zero-tolerance policy for pettiness!
This harmonious Sun-Jupiter aspect can point to strong or influential friends. Your benevolence shines and attracts positive attention. Readily attracting support, gifts, or help, you also return the favor to those who need it. On its own, this aspect suggests you’re not too ambitious or restless, which can help with a general sense of contentment. You’re good-humored, and you easily create happiness from simple things like a good book, a walk in nature, or a heartfelt conversation. You seem to have been born wise, just, and fair.
However, it’s important to note that your innate belief that everything will fall into place could lead to complacency or missed opportunities. To fully unlock the potential of the Sun trine Jupiter aspect, it’s essential to balance it with self-discipline, attention to detail, and self-control. This will ensure that you make the most of the abundant opportunities that come your way.
Fortunately, your Sun trine Jupiter aspect bestows you with a unique set of talents and interests. Your ability to see the bright side of any situation, coupled with your non-judgmental and wise nature, makes you a cherished and favored individual. This aspect often leads to careers in writing, speaking, publishing, health care, or the law, where your positive and understanding approach can truly shine.
Sun opposition Jupiter
With the Sun opposite Jupiter in your natal chart, you have a distinctly hopeful, optimistic, and joyful side to your personality. You dream big! This aspect can manifest in various areas of your life. For instance, you might excel in fields such as entertainment, writing, medicine, teaching, guiding, the law, and publishing. In your personal relationships, you might be the one who always sees the bright side and brings a sense of optimism to the table. People enjoy your input, stories, and perspective.
You also have a rebellious streak. This can be both a strength and a challenge. On one hand, it can fuel your creativity and drive you to question the status quo. On the other hand, it can lead to avoidance of responsibilities, procrastination, and taking on either too much or too little. Cultivating more self-discipline and self-control can help you harness the positive aspects of your free-thinking nature, while also managing its potential pitfalls.
Moodiness can be a problem in your close relationships. This largely emerges from inflated expectations, and moderating these can help even out your moods. Watch, too, for inattention to detail, which can trip you up. While intelligent and observant, you can sometimes overlook the finer points because you’re impatient to get to the next step. You’re not always understanding of differing belief systems, although you are fundamentally kind and tolerant on an individual level.
Your sense of justice and fairness is notable and admirable. Your charm, warmth, humor, and creativity are not just appreciated, they’re cherished. People love to be around you and consider you a special and irreplaceable part of their lives.
Sun conjunct Saturn
Having the Sun conjunct Saturn in your natal chart bestows upon you a unique blend of traits. You possess a profound appreciation for order, reason, science, and natural laws, which sets you apart from others.
In your youth, you may have been humbled in some way such that you don’t always feel free to express your will in an outgoing and direct manner. It’s possible that your expressions of ego were thwarted, leading to some self-consciousness. You became painfully aware that you didn’t often get what you wanted. As adults, you don’t usually feel comfortable as the center of attention. You may feel the need to control your impulses. However, it is this very sense of responsibility that sets you apart. You are much more capable of assuming responsibility than most people. In fact, you might feel that responsibilities fall on you more than others, a testament to your trustworthiness and dependability. Nevertheless, it’s best to watch for taking on more burdern than you should.
As you navigate through life, you embark on a journey of self-discovery. You may yearn for recognition as an accomplished individual, yet there’s a simultaneous fear of the spotlight. This dichotomy can lead to self-criticism, as you strive to achieve more than most.
The face of Saturn is generally serious, but with your Sun-Saturn combination, you can have a strong sense of humor, especially sarcasm. You’re not someone to jump up and down, dramatize, or let loose. You generally wouldn’t be described as “bubbly” or enthusiastic. Instead, you come across as a bit skeptical, pessimistic, cautious, and slightly reserved. There is a distinct streak of conservativeness or perfectionist in you. While some people with this conjunction are rigid and strict, expecting others to live up to their high standards, most are simply very aware that life has its limitations. You are not afraid of responsibility and probably take on more than your fair share. The best thing about this aspect is that the serious and reserved expression characteristic of your youth gradually relaxes with time and age. Sun-Saturn people loosen up with maturity. Embracing your true self and concerning yourself less with others’ expectations of you is the key.
You don’t enjoy competition, perhaps because you don’t want to take it so seriously. Often, you do your best work alone, although you can sometimes feel frustrated being left to your own resources.
Your desire to do things properly, efficiently, and competently is a testament to your discipline and focus. Sloppiness and waste are things you avoid at all costs! You can be quite patient, principled, and disciplined when you want to be. Your conscientiousness and trustworthiness are qualities that people admire and appreciate, making you a reliable and integral part of any team or group and a friend with much integrity.
Interestingly, you may not as readily identify with your Sun sign traits due to Saturn’s alignment with the Sun. This is because you have a love-hate relationship with your sign’s characteristics!
Some possible Sun-Saturn associations include facing more obstacles or blocks than average; May-December relationships, issues with the immune system or slow but steady recuperative powers, fears of being wrong, issues with the bones/teeth and circulation, low vitamin D/lack of sunshine, arthritis.
Sun sextile Saturn
With your Sun-Saturn sextile, it’s easy and natural for you to accept responsibilities, lead a relatively orderly life, and apply caution in financial and business dealings. For instance, you might be the one in your friend group who always takes charge of planning and organizing events. You rarely jump to conclusions or take uneducated risks. Instead, you might spend a significant amount of time researching before making a decision. You have a little more patience than others and enough self-discipline to slowly but surely achieve what you set out to do. This could be seen in your commitment to a long-term project or goal.
While you may not be the most expressive, your loyalty and responsibility towards your loved ones are unwavering. Your trustworthiness is a natural part of your character, and you find it hard to comprehend those who disrespect others, take reckless risks, or lead chaotic lives. Your methodical approach to projects isn’t the fastest, but it ensures you reach your goals consistently.
This aspect adds a distinct layer of responsibility and reliability to your nature. Your dependability in various areas of life, coupled with your meticulousness in projects close to your heart, earns you the respect of others. Even in your youth, you were often seen as more mature than your peers. While you respect tradition and convention, you also have the foresight to recognize when change is necessary. Your ability to make sacrifices in the present for your future self is a testament to your strength. People in authority often appreciate your balanced approach.
Sun square Saturn
With the Sun square Saturn in your natal chart, you may feel that others–and perhaps life itself–demand too much from you. However, this aspect also holds the potential for significant personal growth and self-awareness. You often seem to have taken on more responsibility than the average person, but this can be a catalyst for your journey toward self-discovery. Watch for self-limiting behavior. Something has convinced you that you deserve less, which can lead to many problems if part of you believes it deep down. Recognizing and challenging these beliefs can be a powerful step toward your personal growth.
It’s true that you face a fair number of challenges in your life, especially in the first half of life, when your attempts to express your will often seem thwarted. However, it’s important to remember that these challenges are not insurmountable. There can be a persistent feeling that you don’t get what you want more often than other people around you. You might feel unlucky. Trying to control your environment can be a reaction.
You might fear your own feelings of inadequacy! We all struggle with feeling we’re not good enough, but you don’t even want to go there. You want to be considered accomplished and important, and when you face obstacles, you may not realize you can be your own worst enemy. Even with this fear of failing, you can harbor a fear of success simultaneously. You take failures and minor setbacks to heart, and loosening up those high expectations is critical. Fortunately, you learn to do this as you mature.
Self-awareness to the point of real self-consciousness can be a theme. Consider that no one holds a microscope over you the same way you do. Aim to avoid overanalyzing a little setback or faux pas. You likely didn’t make a spectacle of yourself when you made a mistake. Aim to avoid worrying about always being right or appearing suave and accomplished. When you ease the pressure you put on yourself, you’ll probably find you don’t face as many brick walls. It is very much about what you feel you deserve. Deep down inside, if you let yourself truly believe you deserve happiness and peace of mind, you’ll more likely find it. This belief in your own worth and potential for happiness can be a powerful motivator on your journey of self-discovery.
Self-censoring is a habit with this aspect in your natal chart. You could feel that you shouldn’t want too much. When you express egotism of any form, part of you feels guilty. As the Sun rules our conscious mind, it does enough censoring on its own. It is the “adult” within us. Saturn, on the other hand, is more like the “parent” within us. We need parents to guide us when we are children and, to some degree, as adults, but for the most part, we don’t need to be censored indefinitely–something that seems to be the case with Saturn-Sun hard aspects, except that the censoring and parenting come from within.
Ultimately, you’re learning that the standards you set for yourself are too high, which can be one reason you seem to hit ‘brick walls ‘, metaphorical barriers that prevent you from achieving your goals. You begin to recognize that some restrictions you face in life are self-created, born of a defeatist attitude. It’s best to be aware of the tendency to choose the hardest paths to travel and/or to deny yourself some of life’s pleasures. Working on recognizing and managing these tendencies will help you avoid the pitfalls of this combination.
You have a sarcastic sense of humor, a keen intelligence, and the ability to apply caution and strategy when others are going overboard. Sometimes, your vitality suffers, and troubles with the bones, teeth, and circulation may surface.
With time, you embark on a transformative journey, treating life less as a trial or test and more as a journey. You are talented at creating your own opportunities, and you put in the work. You know how to make a lot out of a little, and your sense of duty is powerful.
Some possible Sun-Saturn associations include facing more obstacles or blocks than average, May-December relationships, issues with the immune system or slow but steady recuperative powers, fears of being wrong, issues with the bones/teeth and circulation, cold constitution, asthma, skin and eye problems, low vitamin D/lack of sunshine, arthritis.
Sun trine Saturn
With your practical mindset, you set realistic goals and pace yourself well. The Sun is trine to Saturn in your natal chart, so you prefer not to waste your resources. Sloppiness bothers you, in fact, and being efficient not only comes naturally but also helps you in many life departments.
Your preference for a modest life and aversion to chaotic situations are unique to you. However, it is your self-understanding that truly sets you apart. You have a clear and realistic view of yourself, a trait that is relatively rare. This self-awareness aids in your decision-making, allowing you to judge your capabilities and responsibilities accurately.
This aspect is one indication of decent vitality and health. You’re not living only for the moment–you usually keep your “future self” in mind. By extension, you have the patience to give up some things in the present to secure a better future.
There’s certainly a serious, careful, and logical streak to your personality. You’re not a big risk-taker in most areas of your life, especially regarding your career or life path. When you were young, adults saw you as more mature or emotionally intelligent than other kids. People in positions of authority, such as parents, teachers, and bosses, tend to favor you. Perhaps they see your responsible side. You’re trustworthy, wise, and reliable. With age and maturity, you learn to loosen up a little more often. You naturally want to do things properly, precisely, or by the book.
While taking on responsibilities comes naturally to you, you tend to work hard for your achievements. You’re discrete, organized, and moderately ambitious. You attempt to honor your commitments and aim to be punctual and respectful of others. For your relationships to survive and thrive, people must treat you with respect and dignity.
Sun quincunx Saturn
The Sun forms a quincunx aspect to Saturn in your natal chart, suggesting there are many lessons in your life related to taking on responsibilities. You might struggle with taking on either more or less responsibilities than you should, but rest assured, with experience, you’ll arrive at the sweet spot.
Your inclination to go to bat for others is commendable, but it’s equally important to extend the same support to yourself. The challenge of not finishing what you started, especially in your younger years, is a common one. However, it’s also a sign of your potential for growth and self-improvement. By identifying your priorities and managing any associated guilt, you can effectively address this issue and move forward with your goals.
There may often be times when guidance and support are scarce, and you might find yourself unfairly judged or criticized, particularly by those in authority. This could lead to a pessimistic outlook, defensiveness, or health issues due to stress. However, left to your own resources, you have the potential to cultivate incredible resilience and self-reliance. As you gain experience and maturity, you’ll learn to filter out the critics, assess your achievements realistically, and avoid letting others’ negative expectations or unfair judgments limit your life.
Sun opposition Saturn
With the Sun opposite Saturn in your natal chart, fear of making a mistake or a spectacle of yourself can prevent you from enjoying the spotlight or putting yourself out there. Feeling restricted on an ego level is a theme that you might struggle with, especially early in life. However, you can also learn to manage and work with this energy.
Some of the most important “work” you will do in your lifetime is learning to know who you are and what you truly want from life, free from the shackles of limiting expectations or defense mechanisms you’ve taken on as a result of early conditioning, judgment, and criticism. You’ll also recognize where you may have adopted the judgmental qualities that so limited your own growth and work to free yourself from them.
Something else to watch for: pride that limits your experiences. You might miss out on happiness and pleasure because you don’t want to concede or compromise.
Your sense of duty and responsibility is highly developed and can be a powerful asset, but like any strength, it can also work against you if taken too far. When balanced, it equips you with organization, thoroughness, determination, practicality, and morality. You possess an incredible drive to achieve something significant. And with your unique ability to separate the practical aspects of life from the emotional, you can accomplish a great deal.
Some possible Sun-Saturn associations include facing more obstacles or blocks than average; May-December relationships, issues with the immune system or slow but steady recuperative powers, fears of being wrong, issues with the bones/teeth and circulation, low vitamin D/lack of sunshine, arthritis.
Sun conjunct Uranus
With the Sun conjunct Uranus aspect in your natal chart, it comes naturally for you to question tradition and sometimes rebel against whatever is already established. It doesn’t mean you consistently break all the rules, but you more quickly question them, especially those that simply don’t make much sense to you.
With your huge distaste for routine, you work best when you have some say as to when and how they get things done. You often rebel against routines and rules, even if you’ve initiated them! While you might look for the escape clause if you feel overly confined or tied down, this is largely due to a need to answer to your own intuition. You prefer room for spontaneity and space to get in touch with your instincts. Things have to feel right for you to pour your energy into them. Not one to follow the crowd, you check in with yourself first and foremost. To navigate this aspect, it can be helpful to find ways to incorporate flexibility and spontaneity into your daily life, while also recognizing the importance of structure and routine in certain areas.
Filled with self-integrity, you avoid labeling people and are most offended when others attempt to label or stereotype you. Although progressive, you can be maddeningly stubborn at times. This aspect can also lead to a certain level of unpredictability, which can be challenging for those around you. You do enjoy a certain level of excitement in your life, you do accept change as exciting, and you can be very open-minded–yet on a personal level, you sometimes stubbornly stick to your ideas and resent anyone who tries to push you into doing something you don’t believe in.
When you were born, the Sun, as the ego, joined forces with Uranus, the reformer, and your identity rides strongly on being unique. You don’t appreciate being compared to others–you’d rather be placed in a class of your own.
You’re not just inventive, creative, and spirited, you’re a beacon of these qualities. You hold your personal space and sense of freedom dear, resisting anything that seems to threaten your individuality. This unique trait of yours is a source of inspiration and confidence, setting you apart from the crowd. You’re refreshingly honest, highly independent, intuitive, and somewhat erratic or inconsistent. People often describe you as quirky, and you are nothing if not interesting.
Themes sometimes associated with the Sun conjunct Uranus are insomnia, anxiety, issues with electricity, vision disturbances, twitching, and spasms. You need healthy outlets for your nervous tension and sensitivity.
You gravitate to (and have an innate understanding of) metaphysical, psychological, spiritual, scientific, and astrological subjects. You are not especially made for business, not because you lack skills, but because you hold yourself to high principles. This aspect can make you more inclined towards unconventional or innovative career paths, where you can express your unique ideas and values.
You seem to attract unusual experiences, people, and situations your way. Experimental, inventive, and original, your ideas are often ahead of their time.
Sun sextile Uranus
With your Sun sextile Uranus, it is easy and natural for you to embrace new ways of doing things, stick up for the underdog, and express yourself in unique and inspiring ways. You don’t have to strive to stand out as unique–you are original, creative, and progressive without trying. Although you question rules and traditions if they don’t make sense to you, you don’t view them as threatening your personal sense of freedom.
There is no trace of pretense in you. In fact, you hold honesty and truth in high regard, and you refrain from putting on airs. Your belief in equality allows you to connect effortlessly with individuals from all walks of life. With your unmistakable enthusiasm, others appreciate you because you are open-minded, fair, and non-judgmental. Indeed, your life is interesting largely because you seem to invite unusual or adventurous experiences to you.
Nothing seems to faze you! You take things in stride and are rarely shocked or taken aback by human behavior. You have a colorful and sparkling personality. People in your circle deeply appreciate your unique, understanding, idealistic, and wise nature. Your special qualities are unforced, which is very appealing. They eagerly anticipate your insights on people and life itself, and they validate your valuable perspective by seeking your advice. This aspect is one indication that people in positions of authority favor you.
Your intuition is easy to access. Situations, hobbies, experiences, people, and things that are unusual, unique, nontraditional, and nonconformist appeal to you. Your innate flexibility and adaptability help you in many different life departments, including health and wellness.
Sun square Uranus
With the Sun square Uranus in your natal chart, your identity is intricately woven with a profound sense of personal freedom. This aspect empowers you to resist any attempts to steer you in a direction that doesn’t align with your inner compass, as you perceive such efforts as encroachments on your freedom.
In truth, you have a love-hate relationship with your own uniqueness. Most of the time, you are proud of your original personality. Other times, you can feel a bit left out for being “different.” Although you are a humanitarian in many ways, you can be a little brusque when it comes to sentimentality or what you perceive as excessive attachment to the past or to tradition.
You are dynamic, and you question tradition and authority. At the same time, you can be quite set in your own ways. This means that while you’re open to new ideas and ways of doing things, you also have your own established methods and beliefs that you stick to.
With the Sun and Uranus challenging one another around the time of your birth, you may experience themes of nervous energy and defensiveness. This could manifest as difficulty in maintaining a regular schedule or developing steady routines. In truth, you work best when you can manage your own schedules. You work in spurts –when you are hit with creative inspiration, you’re capable of tremendous effort.
You can be quite temperamental, and you’re averse to putting your heart and soul into anything that doesn’t feel right at the moment. This can be a challenge in a world that often requires consistency and commitment. You despise superficiality or pretense, which is an admirable trait. However, your disdain for pretense can be problematic when you’re expected to perform whether you are inspired or not! Understanding this about yourself can help you choose activities and projects that align with your current inspiration, while also learning to balance your need for authenticity with the demands of the world.
You don’t always feel you “fit in” with the rules and structures of society. However, if you recognize the need to conform some of the time, you might discover you can channel your high levels of inventiveness and spiritedness into creative endeavors or important causes. You might also find that you encounter much less resistance in day-to-day life this way.
Themes sometimes associated with the Sun square Uranus are insomnia, anxiety, issues with electricity, vision disturbances, twitching, unpredictable mood swings, and spasms. You need healthy outlets for your nervous tension and sensitivity. Traits to develop include consistency and continuity.
You’re a revolutionary, and you’re often ahead of your time. However, it’s vital that you watch for inadvertently living for others by indiscriminately rebelling against them. In other words, if you’re answering only to yourself, you might go the popular route some of the time and the unpopular route the rest of the time. This is far more authentic than only doing the opposite of what is expected of you. In truth, you’re magnetic and a natural, if unpredictable or moody, leader. You’re also exceptionally talented and unique.
Sun trine Uranus
With the Sun trine Uranus in your natal chart, you possess a unique blend of intuition, originality, and spiritedness. Your ability to accept and appreciate what sets you apart from others is a rare gift. You don’t need to conform on every level to feel good about yourself. In fact, you thrive on those traits that make you unique, and others also admire and value your originality.
As someone who doesn’t adhere to tradition for tradition’s sake, you confidently tread your own path, guided by your intuition. You are a free thinker, yet you also understand the importance of compromise for the sake of the group. Your personality has a distinct, collected, detached, and objective side. Very little surprises you! You possess a remarkable level of observation and intuition, allowing you to tune into situations or people and sense when something is amiss. Your ability to sense future trends is also quite impressive.
Your adaptability is a remarkable trait that serves you well in various aspects of life, including your health and wellness. You have a keen appreciation for people, situations, and things that are a little irregular, unusual, or unconventional. This nonjudgmental nature and your brilliant, on-the-nose insights are highly valued by others. When given the space and freedom to operate without excessive interference in your work, routines, daily life, and relationships, you truly shine and excel.
Sun quincunx Uranus (Sun inconjunct Uranus)
With the Sun quincunx Uranus in your natal chart, it can be challenging for you to stick to routines, as part of you rebels against their monotony.
Understanding the Sun quincunx Uranus aspect in your natal chart can help you overcome a nagging feeling of being misunderstood. It’s possible that you don’t always feel in touch with your intuition, leading to poor timing in deciding when to cooperate and when to rebel or go your own way.
Avoid being your own worst enemy by taming sudden impulses to rebel or effect change. Instead, aim to connect with your true feelings on a matter, not only your reactions to what others expect of you. This will help you avoid erratic behavior and enable you to make more informed, measured decisions.
Sun opposition Uranus
With the Sun opposite Uranus in your birth chart, your independence is important to you. The need to be able to express who you are, without the influence of others, is not just vital, it’s liberating.
Dealing with self-esteem issues is crucial. While it’s natural to desire freedom from others’ expectations or opinions, it’s essential to realize that even rebelling against these expectations is still living in their shadow. True detachment is achieved by aligning with your authentic needs and desires. Finding satisfying ways to calm your nerves and alleviate the need to fidget can lead to greater health and wellness.
Uncertainty about taking the lead in relationships can lead to problems. Giving mixed signals is a common issue until you learn to avoid rebelling. Sudden separations or disruptions in relationships can be challenging themes. However, clarity in your desires and intentions can serve as a compass, helping you navigate these challenges with a sense of security and reassurance. It can also prevent you from attracting partners who symbolize your inner struggles or who try to dominate you. Otherwise, it can be frustrating to keep meeting with people who challenge you or force you to confront your issues in disruptive ways.
You’re original, strong-willed, and interesting. You fight against oppression. Scientific and objective, you are drawn to anything that spells progress and advancement. You might simultaneously crave and fear commitment. It’s a good idea to work on making changes gradually rather than abruptly. As well, learn to identify where and when you self-sabotage by making rash decisions or quick breaks from situations. This may happen due to an inner need for excitement that you’re not acknowledging.
You are gifted, impulsive, intuitive, and immensely talented. Channeling your enormous creativity can be a challenge, but can be richly rewarding and empowering.
Mercury conjunct Jupiter
With a conjunction of Mercury and Jupiter in your natal chart, you speak warmly, grandly, and rarely sparingly! You express yourself openly and enthusiastically (unless Saturn is involved with the aspect). Indeed, you’re a dreamer at heart and often assess any given situation with perhaps too much confidence and optimism. You are a natural teacher with unmistakable warmth and breadth of knowledge, although you can also be long-winded and come across as opinionated. In truth, you are simply enthusiastic about sharing information with others.
At least in theory, you’re tolerant and broad-minded. While it’s possible you sometimes come across as a “know-it-all,” you have a charitable soul and a great love of learning…and perhaps even more so, a love of spreading the information you’ve learned.
Your thirst for knowledge is insatiable, but you often gloss over details, preferring to focus on the “big picture.” You make a truly exciting conversationalist for those who tire of small talk. You can have much to say about religion, philosophy, the law, education–anything that involves the advancement of humanity.
Unless this Mercury-Jupiter conjunction is seriously afflicted, you’re usually well-respected not only for your knowledge but for your integrity. Your wit and expressiveness are unmistakable. You are usually more than willing to lend a hand and to support others.
You visualize in broader terms and see the “big picture” rather than the picky little details. Largely due to your enthusiasm and desire for an effect, you’re somewhat prone to exaggerating the facts. This aspect can add a tendency to procrastinate. Although you’re never short on big ideas, the implementation of these ideas (especially the detail work) might be better left to someone else. Routine, detail work, and other such “mental drudgery” is simply not your cup of tea. Even so, your enthusiasm may lead you to take on more projects than you can handle.
With an exceedingly frank and straightforward manner, you might put your foot in your mouth often enough, as subtlety is not your strong point! (Saturn or the Moon involved with the conjunction will add subtlety and comedic talent). If you stretch things, it is likely due to overestimation and a love of entertaining others through your stories. In other words, it comes naturally, and the intent is not to deceive or mislead.
With a powerful sense of possibilities, you’re never short of ideas. You’re also talented at motivating and inspiring others. You enjoy philosophizing, exploring, discovering, and speculating on mental levels.
Mercury sextile Jupiter and Mercury trine Jupiter
Your ideas are big, and your intentions are noble. You are excellent at seeing the big picture, drawing conclusions, problem-solving, and making accurate observations. With Mercury and Jupiter in harmony in your natal chart, you spend your life actively absorbing information. Many of you make good teachers with your sincere love of learning and sharing ideas with others.
You are also very positive in your communications, readily inspiring others with what you say and how you say it. You are skilled at turning information into an advantage and, in some ways, seem to be quite lucky.
You are tolerant of other perspectives and ideas and naturally avoid narrow-minded thinking–in fact, you have a considerable distaste for it. Generally, you’re at ease conversing with people from all walks of life. People greatly respect your viewpoint, often seeking your advice or input. You might be especially attracted to learning other languages and learning about foreign cultures. Travel can hold a strong appeal.
Never short of personal interests, your curiosity is well-developed and innate. While you enjoy learning, you prefer broad thinking to poking around with the details. While this aspect supplies the open and inquisitive mind, it doesn’t, on its own, add competitive fire. As such, some with this aspect need a push to study or specialize.
This aspect adds an optimistic, hopeful, and generous spirit to the nature, particularly to the mentality. You are innately forward-looking and full of hope or faith.
Mercury square Jupiter
You love to express your ideas, sharing them with others quite readily. However, jumping to conclusions can create problems. In your race to get to the big picture, you often overlook details. Your thinking and studying habits aren’t always orderly or disciplined, which can, of course, result in sloppiness. You often prefer to leave the specializing to others–you prefer to explore and discover on mental levels, leaving yourself open to possibilities.
You don’t always find it easy to settle on logical, precise thinking or an optimistic conclusion-drawing bent of mind. In the process, it can be challenging for you to truly get to the heart of a subject or to focus for very long. You may confuse others with a critical flaw-finding conversation one moment and an overly faithful and unrealistic opinion the next.
While your intentions are generally good, you might overestimate what you are capable of and promise more than you can deliver. Be careful not to develop a reputation for being unreliable simply because you desire to make others happy with what you say or promise.
You are inclined to exaggerate, often without meaning to, and you might have difficulty putting your ideas into practice. In an attempt to attach greater meaning to your thoughts and ideas, you might frequently overstate or overestimate. However, you can be extraordinarily funny and interesting, and you’re never short of ideas. You can see possibilities where others don’t.

Mercury conjunct Saturn
With Mercury conjunct Saturn in your natal chart, you are of a serious mind. Your mind immediately sees the practical side of a situation. You naturally arrange, sort, quantify, and organize information. Rarely do you overlook the details.
Always ready to work for desired results, you are often very methodical in your approach to learning, studying, and both sharing and processing information. You prefer lists and clear steps, instructions, and explanations. Frequently, you put things into precise order, sometimes getting stuck on specific details or facts to get them right before moving ahead. With this tendency, you often draw your conclusions, formulate your plans, and communicate your messages more slowly and thoughtfully than others as you focus on getting things right.
Because you’re so practical-minded and serious in thought, you may not readily believe in your creativity or imagination. Connecting with these elements of your personality can take effort, maturity, and experience. While you can believe in your mental abilities, you may not have grown up with reinforcement on these lines, and building confidence also takes work.
You can be a master of your particular trade. You are an excellent advisor, guide, or teacher, as you take what you relay or teach quite seriously. Accuracy and efficiency are critical to you. Your morals are strong, and you can be quite principled, conscientious, exacting, diligent, and reliable. Your communications are notably rather controlled or guarded. For example, as you aim to be very clear, you might review something you write repeatedly before releasing or publishing it, even casual comments.
More than most, you need some solitude, quiet, space, and an environment where you can focus and concentrate to work, study, or produce. Due to an innate skepticism, there can be some tendency or troubles with depression or loneliness. Light banter or social niceties can make you feel uncomfortable or unnatural. With time and maturity, you may learn to relax your expectations or standards for yourself and allow for more spontaneity and less inhibition with self-expression. Interestingly, in youth, you may feel more comfortable conversing with adults due to your mature thinking, but you feel less constrained as you age.
This aspect gives a distinct cautious side to your personality on a mental or intellectual level: you don’t jump into new personal interests, as you rarely take new endeavors lightly. Similarly, you take your time drawing conclusions. However, once engaged and committed to a topic, you tend to explore and learn it in-depth, and you can talk at length about it! Watch for too strong of a tendency to self-justify, as this can limit or weaken you. The mind is stubborn and a bit resistant but also thorough, profound, and determined.
In your communications, you might often come across as stern, serious, critical, discerning, dry, or clinical, whether or not you intend to be. In truth, you’re also factual, reliable, and responsible. You help others to see things realistically.
You could sometimes suffer from feelings of doom, as you fear being taken off guard and prefer to be prepared for the worst. You approach new endeavors or information with caution, reluctance, and skepticism.
Studies, learning, and mental efforts can be slow but sure, developing over time. You don’t always get the breaks or help others seem to receive, and you work hard for what you achieve. As such, you can be proud of what you do and produce–for good reason! You might take making mistakes much more seriously than others, finding it quite mortifying. As you mature, you learn not to be as hard on yourself.
Mercury sextile or trine Saturn
Your mind is well-disciplined when it needs to be, and you possess strong powers of organization and orderliness. You are good at detail work. With Mercury in harmony with Saturn in your natal chart, you are a person who says what you mean and means what you say, and you can be baffled by, or impatient with, those who don’t.
You are very trustworthy and reliable, showing up on time for appointments due to basic respect for others and for schedules and orderliness. Certainly, you make a loyal friend.
You are capable of exceptionally clear and realistic thinking. Making plans comes naturally to you–you consider consequences and possible scenarios before arriving at a decision or embarking on something entirely new. You are somewhat of a doubting Thomas, and you don’t naturally jump up and down with excitement about new ideas or plans. Your conversations may, at times, be spare but to the point.
Mercury sextile or trine Neptune
You are creative, perceptive, and imaginative. You draw heavily on your imagination and intuition to come to conclusions and make decisions. Readily sensing the thoughts and feelings of others, you are adaptable in your communications as you pay attention to how your words are received.
With Mercury in harmony with Neptune in your natal chart, you express yourself with subtle flair, sensitivity, and perhaps some charming quirkiness.
You have an appreciation, and perhaps talent, for photography, the arts, poetry, fiction, spirituality, advertising, and promotion. You are naturally open to metaphysical or spiritual concepts. You might believe in things that others discard, and some with this position at least seem a little naive or childlike. Many with this position have psychic abilities or very good hunches.
Mercury sextile or trine Pluto
With Mercury in harmony with Pluto, you naturally seek truths, looking for the hidden layers and zoning in on core meanings. Your mind is deep, thoughtful, thorough, and investigative.
You’re incredibly perceptive and resourceful. When you need it, you can successfully draw upon your ability to focus, concentrate, diagnose, and discern matters intelligently.
Highly observant, you quickly grasp a situation, but you’re also inclined to investigate things fully, preferring not to jump to conclusions or miss anything important. You’re crafty, persuasive, subtle, skeptical, and critical. Not content with superficial explanations, you approach learning and special topics deeply.
People take great interest in your insights, ideas, and viewpoints. Even so, when young, you may have felt your interests and mindset were far different than those of other kids. With maturity and experience, your unique mind will likely be seen as valuable.
Leave it to you to solve a complex problem or mystery! You’re strategic in your thinking and communicating.
Mars conjunct Jupiter
With Mars conjunct Jupiter in your natal chart, you may enjoy competitions, having a marked competitive or thrill-seeking streak. In fact, you apply this to life in general–overcoming obstacles, improving, and advancing are your goals. You take on challenges.
Moderation can be a struggle–you find it boring to keep things in check!
You often throw yourself into your pursuits rather than wait and see what comes of things. A theme in your life can be jumping into things and figuring out the details (or consequences) later.
It’s natural for you to drum up enthusiasm, and you thrive on being spontaneous. Focusing on the future and letting go of the past also comes naturally–an innate optimism and confidence is notable with this natal chart aspect. Your initiative and enterprising nature are powerful. You might want to watch for a feeling of never being fully content. While this trait keeps you advancing and improving, living in the future is not quite the same as living in the moment, and restlessness can take over.
This aspect produces a great spirit for adventure and perhaps some wanderlust. Rejuvenation and refreshment motivate you. You’re quick to stand up for yourself and others and for justice and truth. While you seek inspiration, you’re also talented at inspiring and motivating others.
Mars square Jupiter
This aspect adds a layer of impulsiveness, insatiable desires, playfulness, and daring to your personality. You might frequently try to prove yourself–to others and/or yourself–and thus readily take on a challenge. You crave exciting experiences and may rarely be satisfied with your life as it is.
You also require much space and freedom, and you demand to be treated with fairness. It would be best if you were careful that your behavior is deserving of these liberties, and that you treat others with the same respect.
Many people with this aspect in their natal charts tend to flee when angry, not because they are afraid of confrontation–they certainly are not–but when frustrated, a deep inner restlessness is stirred. Some people with this position can be pretty self-serving, often without even realizing it, demanding freedom and space from others but not necessarily returning the favor.
Another challenging expression of this Mars-Jupiter aspect is a haughty or boastful attitude–some with this aspect in their birth charts feel they can get away with practically anything. Often they can, and even when they don’t, they quickly recover from losses. However, this is generally due to a tendency to gloss over or ignore what has happened. Here, again, is the tendency to flee rather than reflect. They are quick to forget or ignore their mistakes.
Your impulsiveness combined with a competitive streak can incline you to gambling, not necessarily or only with money. You may feel you never have enough–or enough experiences. You would benefit greatly from more time for self-reflection, as you don’t always see your behavior clearly. When you don’t learn from your mistakes, you repeat them. Another thing to watch for: refusing to accept guidance, which can lead to unnecessary problems.
You are attracted to adventure, exploration, and conquest. There is a real spirit of adventure in your nature. It’s not always easy to know when to stop or slow down long enough to feel satisfied with your accomplishments.
Dieters are encouraged to slow down while eating a meal so that they can process when they are full and satisfied. If they eat too quickly, they will likely eat more than they need. Similarly, people with Mars in hard aspect to Jupiter would benefit from slowing down and reflecting on their experiences to avoid living life feeling they have never had enough. This strategy can also help prevent this aspect’s tendency to be accident-prone.
You are resilient, quickly bouncing back from any setback and usually in a stronger position. You are pretty playful and humorous, love to joke around, enjoy practical jokes, and are quick to smile and laugh.
Mars trine Jupiter
Mars trine Jupiter in your natal chart adds a solid layer of energy, sincerity, frankness, a sense of adventure, and a love of life to your personality. Full of dynamism, you enjoy a challenge or healthy competition. With your great love of life, you want to take it all in and enjoy what life offers. You’re fundamentally optimistic and have a can-do attitude that brings success on professional and personal levels. This is a fertile, jovial, and positive combination.
Mars-Jupiter harmonious aspects are also good for the sense of timing and organization. You naturally take the lead. You’re motivated but also talented at motivating others. Travel, politics, and sports can be strong draws.
Truth, honesty, and directness are essential to you. You prefer to give people and situations the benefit of the doubt first until proven otherwise. You have innate faith in yourself and the world, and you’re generally fair-minded, just, protective, and energetic.
Possessing great initiative, you are enterprising, upbeat, dynamic, and innovative. Although you’re often ready to take on a new challenge, this aspect alone doesn’t provide you with the drive to push ahead–other aspects (usually hard ones) in your chart can supply the ambition to apply yourself. People with Mars and Jupiter in harmony are not so much success-oriented as they are optimistic and interested in gaining new and different experiences.
This aspect gives you a lucky streak, largely due to your faith in your vision. Your spirit is generous and enthusiastic. Truth and justice are fundamental to you, and you have a strong desire to act on your beliefs and principles. In fact, you’re inclined to do many things in big ways.
Mars conjunct Saturn
Mars conjunct Saturn is a determined, gritty, and realistic combination. With this aspect in your natal chart, you prefer to plan ahead, organize, and stay on top of things. You’re intelligent and sometimes sarcastic. Workaholic tendencies can be in play, but you learn to pace yourself with time. Not inclined to rush things, you know that good things take time to build and develop.
This side of you is very responsible, realistic, hard-working, and reasonable. You make an excellent manager and organizer. You’re not afraid of repetitive work.
This aspect can incline you to be naturally reserved, but if you’re outgoing, you are known for your wit. This is largely due to some insecurities or fears about asserting yourself, body ego issues, and other such struggles in youth. Managing these things comes more readily with time and age. In fact, you develop tremendous self-reliance.
Endurance is your forte! You are persistent, and while your realism can bring you down at times, you’re good at picking yourself up and carrying on. You might indeed underestimate your capabilities. However, you’ll give it your all once you undertake an endeavor. You’re not very spontaneous or obviously enthusiastic, naturally tempering your reactions with realism.
Watch for building resentment because others expect too much of you or rely on you to pick up their pieces. You are harder on yourself than most people.
With a Mars-Saturn alignment in your natal chart, you are not only exceptionally aware of the limits of time, but you also see your own limits more clearly than most. You have strong survival instincts and are practical. While others may give up at the first or second obstacle, you expect ups and downs. You endure and learn patience as you go along.
Mars square Saturn
With Mars square Saturn in your natal chart, you might often feel your desires are denied or blocked. The challenge is to temper, moderate, and control your energy, anger, and desire nature more smoothly.
You can be determined to achieve your goals, and you’ll work hard for them. However, it’s not always easy to pace yourself or choose the right time to push ahead, especially in your youth. Over time and with maturity, you learn more strategies to moderate your energy. Until then, going hard at the wrong times can produce some real ups and downs.
In relationships, timing can often be a problem. For example, you may come on too strong or retreat or withdraw at all the wrong times. Getting this right is a challenge.
Blowing hot and cold can be a frustrating theme. Insecurities and self-defeating tendencies can be a struggle. Mars-Saturn people can take on too much or shoulder far too much responsibility. They can often feel imposed upon. Treating yourself and others with patience and grace is an essential strategy.
People with Mars square Saturn can feel they face more obstacles than most to achieve their desires and goals. You can have strong compulsions to bow out of your pursuits, but doing so can lead to further struggles. You should probably examine whether these urges are self-sabotaging. Oppressive circumstances in early childhood may be behind this.
You should also watch for taking unnecessary risks. Somewhat accident-prone, you may have more scrapes and bruises than average. Physical issues often relate to overstraining. You can become so absorbed in a pursuit that you ignore your need to rest or take a break from it. Difficulties with authority figures can be a theme. Getting something started or deciding on a definite course of action can often be a struggle–because you take your actions and plans so seriously, settling on them can be a heavy, drawn-out affair!
Dealing with anger, resentment, and self-assertion can be a struggle at times, and people who don’t know your full story could sometimes see you as harsh, unfeeling, or insensitive. Of course, this image can further work against you.
With Mars square Saturn in your natal chart, you have a strong sense of duty, even if you sometimes feel overwhelmed by it! Over time, you learn to assert yourself and pursue your desires with discipline and moderation. Achieving your goals can sometimes be complicated or lengthy, but it comes with great rewards.
A primary key to managing this Mars-Saturn aspect lies in accepting and working with your limits on physical and desire levels. Tempering the need to be in total control is also important, as relaxing this compulsion can reduce stress tremendously.

When you need it, you can draw on great strength, resistance, ability, and patience. You pour your energy and talents into overcoming obstacles! You often do your best when given some solitude, privacy, or independence. But just because you work well on your own doesn’t mean you can’t cooperate reasonably with others–you certainly can. Mars-Saturn people are respectful of others’ boundaries and rules. However, you prefer to have control of your projects and pursuits.
This aspect adds a certain toughness, reserve, or strictness to the personality. It may not be dominant, but it’s there! You’re persistent, enduring, obstinate, and calculating as you consider and plan for all possible consequences. When necessary, you can temporarily mute your desires to work for the greater good or toward your future security.
While you may not necessarily be popular (other aspects tell that story), you’re usually respected. This aspect highlights well-laid plans, shrewdness, seriousness when working, and powerful resistance. After a setback, you get right back up again and carry on. Your success story can be slow but steady. Your enthusiasm is often tempered, as you are realistic, seeking balance and exercising moderation. You tend to conserve your energy for priorities and have an exceptional sense of your limits.

You are original, inventive, and sometimes erratic, often acting on blind impulse. Many find you attractive and intriguing. You might easily become bored, but you are also clever and inventive enough to create exciting new projects, challenges, and endeavors.
You don’t respond well to pressure or to direct orders. Shocking others by breaking rules and taboos can be enjoyable for you at times. You could become a pioneer in a field, and you certainly are able to lead the way for others, although your focus needs improvement with this position. Not a believer in fate alone, you see things in such a way that you know there are always choices and options. You are an individualist who can relate to pretty much anyone in the world from all walks of life. You are often the first to embrace new, improved, cutting-edge products, things, and ideas.
Mars sextile and trine Uranus
You’re naturally inventive, bold, impulsive, and courageous. You dare to be different! Highly original, you stand out pleasantly from the crowd and have a strong impact on others.
Rarely bored when on your own, you have many interests, goals, and projects to occupy your time. However, if you’re caught in a routine, your love of variety and freedom leads to restlessness. You’re averse to doing everything by the book, restrictions, and limiting schedules. In fact, you thrive best when given the room and space to connect with your powerful instincts and impulses.
Your methods and plans are highly original, and you have excellent troubleshooting and multitasking abilities. Because you thrive on spontaneity, you can surprise people, keeping them on their toes.
Mars square and opposition Uranus
You prefer to stand out in a crowd than to follow. Even if your fundamental personality is introspective, you naturally do stand out.
Watch for a tendency to be stubborn or dogmatic, which can impede your progress in life and cause unnecessary delays or obstacles. You can be temperamental, but you tend to get over things quickly.
While you’re in touch with your needs and character, being hasty, impatient, and impulsive can lead to unnecessary struggles. This combination can indicate eccentricity, nervousness, or ups and downs with energy, desires, and motivation. Fussiness or irritability is marked when you’re upset.
You don’t do well with schedules, especially those imposed upon you, but often, not even those you create for yourself! You can have great disdain for certain formalities and social niceties or maneuvering.
It’s best to watch for abrupt, rebellious moves since they don’t always serve you well. Consider that impulses to take sudden risks may be self-sabotage. With time and maturity, you recognize the value of developing more patience and humility.
You can be notably original, headstrong, rebellious, and contradictory. You are independent and individualistic. Inventing, designing, and pioneering are your strengths.

People don’t always understand you, which can work for and against you, depending on the situation. It can sometimes be tempting to go along with someone’s image of you–you don’t want to let them down–but it can lead to some complications. In fact, you might often gravitate to the more complex or convoluted path.
Expressing anger or your desires can also be complex for you. Your energy levels are quite variable, as you seem to be fueled by inspiration.

You can be very persuasive and inspiring, as well. Others want to do things for you, and it’s easy to enjoy! You visualize what you want and often find yourself attracting it.

Because you appreciate the unusual, you attract out-of-the-ordinary experiences into your life. You can be a healer with a gentle but powerful touch. Your senses work overtime. Working on inspiration as your fuel, you are capable of much when you’re motivated. However, you’re not one who would step over others to achieve.
Mars sextile Pluto and Mars trine Pluto
This Mars-Pluto aspect adds a layer of intensity, strategy, and resourcefulness to the personality. You are committed, determined, and passionate. For you, it’s all or nothing, and you are baffled by–and possibly impatient with–people who do things only halfway or half-heartedly. You are usually quite decisive and often unwavering once committed.
Certainly a passionate person, you possess a fascinating and commanding aura. You are self-motivated, physical, and generally confident in your talents. What sets you apart from others is your easy relationship with your subconscious, deeper desires, and ambitions. You’re satisfied most when you’re regenerating or transforming yourself or circumstances.
You employ strategy when going after something, and you are very talented at this, saving time and energy. While you are perfectly capable of outwitting others as a natural psychologist, whether you take advantage of this skill or not depends much on other factors in your natal chart.

People can count on you not only in times of crisis or problems but also for unquestioned support for embarrassing or complex matters.
When motivated, you’re determined and focused. You have staying power! What’s under the surface of things, hidden, buried, or misunderstood intrigues you. A natural detective and strategist, you don’t always follow a straight line. You are uncomfortable with things done halfway or half-heartedly.
In relationships, you seek depth, rawness, ecstasy, passion, and intensity. Superficial connections are of little interest to you. This aspect in your natal chart boosts your personal appeal and magnetism.
Jupiter conjunct Saturn
With Jupiter forming a conjunction to Saturn in the birth chart, your tendency to see both the potentials and limits of any given situation has its perks, making you a very reasonable person. However, you don’t always allow yourself the pleasure of letting your mind go or of imagining something wonderful without also having to pull in the disclaimers! This can take its toll.
You have a balanced outlook, with realistic optimism and optimistic realism. You’re serious about your principles, ideas, and beliefs.

You learn from your mistakes – a trait that is not as common as one would think!
You are generous but not unreasonably so, and you are judicious without being too strict. Moderation is the beauty of this combination — you instinctively know that moderation is the key to happiness and success.
This is generally considered a fortunate aspect and is one indication of a strong ability to put your ideas into action and a good possibility of material success. There can be a knack or propensity for law, travel, and history. Qualities of this combination that are considered talents but that can always benefit from extra attention and development: patience, realism, practicality, credibility, modesty, and fairness.
Jupiter square Saturn
With Jupiter square Saturn in your natal chart, it’s natural to swing between faith and doubt or optimism and pessimism. However, with the passage of time, your efforts, patience, and the wisdom gained from experience, you can learn to manage your expectations and moderate your tendency to become discouraged too easily in the face of obstacles or criticism. This reassurance can help alleviate any anxiety you may feel about the challenges ahead.
Your morality is well-developed, but you might often find it difficult to thoroughly enjoy yourself without concerning yourself with what you should be doing. Because you’re more inclined to remember what didn’t work than what did, you can be reluctant to work toward complicated goals, preferring to look for the quick fix.
Be mindful of the tendency to feel a sense of doom if you’re enjoying yourself “too much” or, on the other side, a sense of unbearable boredom if tied to a routine for a while. Striving for moderation and compromise is indeed worthwhile. It can help you tremendously to adopt a more balanced outlook–a sense of realistic optimism.
Equally important, avoid comparing yourself or your situation unfavorably to others. Remember, your journey is unique and valuable. Also, resist the urge to give up before you even begin. You often don’t get past the first step of setting a goal, largely because you find that process overwhelming, which could lead to some disorganization and missed opportunities.

You enjoy being a step ahead of others with your ideas, projects, or knowledge. You also prefer to explore life spontaneously. Although you’re not averse to some instruction or direction, you want to leave some room for discovery and exploration.

This aspect helps you detach from traditions or customs that feel restrictive. Your ideas, beliefs, worldview, and opinions are somewhat unconventional.
Jupiter square Uranus
With Jupiter forming a square to Uranus in the birth chart, you gravitate toward activities and ideas that inspire and excite you. New and original ideas can be attractive, and you might frequently pin your hopes on new endeavors. You might watch for a tendency to enjoy shiny new things just because they’re different. Your ideas can be fabulous, but you may lose interest in them over time or if they’ve become routine.
Ideally, you have other indicators in your chart that help with follow-through and persistence, as this aspect if examined in isolation suggests some potential problems with attention span. You may sometimes rebel against not only others’ plans, but your own best-laid plans.
You have great optimism about what you can take on, but it’s best to avoid taking on so much that you spread yourself too thin. Aim for self-discipline with projects and pursuits. Life is certainly more exciting when you don’t prepare, but it can cripple your chances of success if you don’t always do the groundwork.
Jupiter trine Uranus
With Jupiter forming a trine to Uranus in your birth chart, very little escapes your attention regarding potential opportunities or possibilities! You know how to turn around almost any situation. Your intuition is powerful and serves you well. In fact, you often work on sudden hunches and moments of flash inspiration.
This aspect lends some good fortune with spontaneity to your life and personality, even if your chart has a cautious tone. You have a strong sense of what may happen down the road, helping you to remain optimistic in most situations. You have a love of invention, or you can be quite inventive yourself.
You have basic respect for the individual, and you advocate for freedom of speech and thought. Your perspective or belief system is unusual and unique. You need freedom and space to think, invent, and follow your own path. You can benefit significantly from activities that celebrate life, such as dancing, and you believe that laughter and celebration are the best forms of refreshment.
Your spirit of discovery is powerful and often attracts good fortune. You are not tied to tradition and convention as much as most. Being able to move on when it’s right for you is a gift, although there are times when an unsentimental approach can alienate certain others. Your friends can be a very diverse group.
Jupiter conjunct Neptune
With Jupiter forming a conjunction to Neptune in the birth chart, you have a distinct spiritual or idealistic side to your nature and, especially, your belief system or worldview. You value the layers we don’t see and their effects on our perceptions.
Money can come to you seemingly out of the blue, but it can also leave you quickly unless you have other influences in your birth chart that sharpen your self-discipline and practical nature. You are inclined to value those things that elevate your spirits and sense of oneness with the universe.
Life may become unnecessarily complicated for you as the result of too powerful expectations. You might consider how many times your mood plummets only because you were expecting something better than what transpired. Another possibility: a tendency to want to ignore the practical details of everyday life. You might benefit from having a trusted helper or advisor or assistant who handles the practical side of a project.
You prefer to trust people or the universe, at least until they’ve proved you wrong. You don’t see the point of living in a constant state of suspicion, opting instead to have faith. Kind and compassionate, this aspect boosts your empathy and your power to spread goodness.
Jupiter sextile Neptune
With Jupiter forming a sextile to Neptune in your birth chart, you are gracious and compassionate, and you appreciate subtleties. You have a spiritual side and intuitive, natural understanding. This aspect alone does not give discipline so that we would have to see signs of pragmatism elsewhere in the chart to see whether you only feel these things or you also take action on these feelings.
You’re inclined to believe in karma, and you generally try to do what you feel is right. Your ideas of right and wrong are not rigid, however, as you believe that there is a backstory to every person and situation. This aspect is one indication of protection, sometimes at the last minute!
You are usually quite flexible and understanding, as well as noble in your ideas. Your empathy is well developed, you look out for the underdog, and you possess a distinct generosity of spirit. Open-mindedness is a gift and can assist you greatly in your life. Your faithful approach to the world tends to earn you the confidence of others. You are trusting but also within reason so that you don’t frequently lose your sense of proportion. You’re quite talented at turning difficult situations around. You can be a mystic, and to what degree this is the case depends much on the rest of your chart.
This influence often suggests good fortune in businesses or circumstances related to the psychic arts, psychology, social work, education, cruises, travel, and the sea. Performing helpful services can be rewarding, but you should watch for selling yourself short. This aspect is one indication of reduced interest in the practical and material side of things such that if you don’t have other more grounding influences in your chart, you might benefit from getting help with money management.
Jupiter square Neptune
With Jupiter square Neptune in the birth chart, you are especially charitable and sympathetic. On a fundamental level, you believe in humanity, or at least, each individual and their particular back story. It’s crucial to be sure that people who receive your generosity are worth your efforts, although it can be difficult for you to practice this kind of skepticism in part because you don’t want to believe the worst.
Of course, other influences in your chart can harden you on some levels or incline you to mistrust, but this aspect points to a fundamental desire to trust others because you don’t want to live in a world where mistrust is the norm. The answer, then, is not to give up on your idealism, but to remind yourself of practical concerns from time to time and watch for unrealistic expectations. Your power to believe is fantastic.
You may need to perform frequent reality checks. One of the biggest potential challenges with this position is the tendency to waste opportunities by letting them pass by.
You have a basic belief in humanity or life itself, a fundamental optimism, and trust in your own “guardian angel” or equivalent. These can get in the way of practical concerns or cause other such problems. There can be some laziness in checking the details of a plan or situation. Because of your runaway imagination, it’s best to enforce frequent reality checks due to a runaway imagination. You are extremely compassionate and empathic.
You’re easily influenced by environmental factors, medicines, or drugs, and you tend to be very impressionable. You might have trouble locking things down, rather frequently procrastinating. It’s not always easy to put your dreams into motion.
Perhaps at its worst, self-justification can be persistent with this aspect–people with a challenging Jupiter-Neptune aspect might make up morals as they go along, for example. It can be convenient to overlook specific rules to fit the situation. It can be challenging to learn from our mistakes with the sometimes over-optimism and “everything will work out” mindset of this combination. However, if you’re able to control this tendency, there is great compassion and vision to be found with Jupiter-Neptune. Indeed, there is much understanding and tolerance.
Jupiter trine Neptune
With Jupiter trine Neptune in the birth chart, you have an intuitive or spiritual approach to solving problems and a compassionate and tolerant worldview or perspective. You believe in your dreams, and perhaps humanity in general, more so than most. You care for the underdog, you’re hospitable, and you look out for the vulnerable. There can be a natural love of rousing music, art, religion, ceremony, and drama. This influence is often connected with a helping hand or spiritual protection energy. Ideally, you also have sensible aspects in your chart that help you deal with the practical world.
Jupiter conjunct Pluto
With Jupiter forming a conjunction to Pluto in the birth chart, you are skilled at sniffing out an opportunity. When something ends, you instinctively know how to make the best of it and move in a new direction. You always seem to see possibilities where others may see only one route or a dead end. You will do what it takes to succeed, but you refuse to stoop low or be narrow and petty.
You quite often take an all-or-nothing approach to life, especially with your ideas, beliefs, goals, and ambitions. Your drive to come out on top and win can sometimes find you in conflict with others, especially those in authority. While you sometimes take things a bit too far, you are generally very good at identifying opportunities to grow, expand, and improve. At times, it can be helpful to ask yourself whether expansion is necessary–keeping things simple is not always in your vocabulary but can sometimes be the better route.
You express yourself intensely when you’re engaged, and you have strong convictions. You may stir up some controversy as a result.
You can concentrate when necessary, and this is not especially easy for many people! When you’re inspired, you can move mountains. You can be quite competent in crisis situations. You have inner strength and conviction, and most of this occurs on a mental or psychic level.
You see opportunity in pretty much any situation, but whether or not you are an opportunist is something else altogether–seeing and doing are two different things!
If this combination is challenged in the chart, it’s essential to avoid pushing your ideas too hard on others. Things to watch when this aspect is working poorly or under strain: too much self-importance, an overly entitled attitude, expecting to get something for nothing, or perpetual discontent.

Jupiter sextile Pluto
With Jupiter forming a sextile to Pluto in the birth chart, you have faith in your ability to effect change and grow, improve, and heal. You’re astute, seeing things others don’t as readily perceive, and you value what’s hidden, multi-layered, profound, or complicated. You believe in renewal and transformation.
This aspect improves your ability to plan and organize. You are success- and growth-oriented. You believe fully in the ability to improve things, and you might often find yourself thinking of what you can make better–what you might grow or advance. Others tend to respect you as an authority.
When you put the effort forth, you can get to the heart or truth of any matter. You’re perceptive and an excellent researcher. Investigations are enjoyable for you, and the bonus is that you excel at them. You can be determined to get to the bottom of issues, and you might seem a little too adamant or obsessed with finding the truth to others. Ideally, there are other aspects in your chart that point to tolerance and sensitivity to balance this out. Suitable careers include legislator, pharmacist, doctor, judge, politician, publisher, detective, and scientist. You are particularly suited for fields that help others heal from illness, crisis, oppression, or abuse.
You are talented at handling others’ resources, including talents and money, and improving them. Few are as successful as you at creating wealth and developing talents. Whatever you do, you tend to take it to the next level. The desire for power, particularly behind the scenes, is well-developed.
You want to make things better, and you’re excellent at doing so, although you may not always find it easy to leave something alone! People can have a tough time hiding the truth from you.
Wealth or abundance to you is more about enjoying rich experiences than accumulating things.
Jupiter square Pluto
With Jupiter square Pluto in the birth chart, you have big plans and ambitions, and some might say too big at times! You benefit from great resourcefulness, and if you can tame your tendency to go overboard, you can do well with this trait. You can have an all-or-nothing approach to life. This can be one indication of high levels of material success or wealth. You are driven and might make important contacts with people who can help you achieve your goals. It will be important to watch for compulsive, over-the-top, or know-it-all behavior. Power is enticing but should be used wisely. Your drive to control can sometimes lead to conflicts with authority. Dissatisfaction with your current lot in life can be used as motivation to reach higher, but if it’s a perpetual issue (that is, you never feel content with your accomplishments), then you might want to ask yourself if expansion is always necessary. Take the time to count your smaller blessings and achievements.
Jupiter sextile Chiron

This aspect is one indicator of a positive mindset–you pick yourself up from a fall quickly. You might have an early experience of a limitation that taught you that you can rebound from a setback stronger than you were before. You’re resourceful.
Jupiter square Chiron
With Jupiter square Chiron in your natal chart, you might grapple with your profound belief in personal freedom. This belief, while empowering, can sometimes clash with your morality or compassion, and when it does, you find yourself struggling with indecision. Your most profound life lessons often emerge when you’ve overreached, overstepped boundaries, or ignored your instincts and followed a path that wasn’t aligned with your true self.
You have a distinct philosophical bent and use humor to teach, guide, coach, and heal. You could feel drawn to guiding others on the very things you want or need to learn. As such, you learn as you teach, and the genuineness and sincerity involved with this process make you uniquely talented at helping others.
It’s crucial to be mindful of attempts to fix problems by simply pasting positivity over the wounds. A positive mindset is valuable, but it’s all too easy to fall into the trap of toxic positivity. Instead, strive to connect with genuine joy, not just superficial happiness. Over time, you may become adept and talented at helping others connect with their inner joy, and you might find yourself developing a distaste for obligatory displays of social niceties.
Jupiter square North Node of the Moon
With Jupiter forming a square to the North Node of the Moon, your social views and values don’t always mesh with current thought. You are an individualist, unafraid of going against the grain. Additionally, you are not fond of social niceties, preferring to say it like it is.
However, it would be best if you watched for glossing over important details. It’s relatively easy for you to jump to conclusions. You also seem to attract life lessons, often through conflict or jarring events.

Saturn square Uranus
With Saturn square Uranus in your natal chart, there may seem to be more abrupt changes, shake-ups, or disruptions in your life than the average person. This is especially so if an inner planet (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, or Mars) is involved with the Saturn-Uranus square. Otherwise, the effects are more general and not as personal as other influences in your chart.
It can be difficult to call you progressive or traditional since you’re very much both of these things! When you feel the desire to adapt and move forward, you might frequently feel stuck or tied down by your duties, obligations, or traditions. Mood changes can be extreme at times due to this inner struggle between wanting to break free and needing to follow the rules.
You might often feel pulled between sharply different urges–handling your responsibilities or living up to others’ expectations of you and breaking free from expectations or obligations. Finding a balance between these two urges can be a real struggle in your life.
You might maintain an unhealthy pattern in which you bottle things up and then burst with frustration. You might wrestle with decisions more than most, particularly when considering making a change in your life.

Overcoming the fear of making useful changes is vital to your growth and fulfillment, as well as immensely freeing.
You can feel extremes of feeling and reaction–tensions escalate quickly. You might often feel divided or indecisive, torn between two opposite inclinations, which complicates life. Certainly, you’re fascinated and sometimes tormented by the impact of every small decision on your life. You might often resent restrictions, more so than most, and you could find that you’re often irritable as a result of this sensitivity. However, you’re also quite resilient.
Your traditions are often unusual, and you’re likely to have mathematical ability, or at least a keen interest in how things work. You might enjoy tinkering and experimenting, attracted to inventions and innovations.

This aspect is one indication of skills in math, science, and astrology. You are determined and tenacious but know when to let go, particularly in your business affairs.
Saturn sextile Neptune

You are incredibly skilled at bringing your imagination to life or dreams to reality. You are both compassionate and practical in a primarily balanced way, and your work ethic is strong. You tend to take your beliefs seriously, or you put serious effort into your principles or religion.
Your social consciousness is well-developed, and it figures strongly in your personality. You are ready to lend a hand, and you’re especially prepared to help others, providing practical assistance in times of stress or emotional support in times of material need. You are exceptionally perceptive and understanding, and you would make a good counselor, mediator, or go-between as a result.

Saturn conjunct Pluto
With Saturn forming a conjunction to Pluto in the birth chart, you can have strong and even intense ambitions that you prefer to hold close to your chest. Some people with this aspect can reject this side of themselves because it feels too overwhelming or intense, although at some point would do well to explore and manage it. Holding onto secrets can be your undoing, and it’s best to find ways to unburden, decompress, and reduce stress since you take on more guilt or responsibility in your heart than most others. You can be skeptical and pessimistic at times since Pluto can act to exaggerate the realism of Saturn, but you’re also ready to overcome obstacles in your path. You are resourceful and brilliant at making the most of your situation and turning negative circumstances right around.
Saturn sextile Chiron
With Saturn forming a sextile to Chiron in the birth chart, you quite naturally understand how to blend your needs for tradition, structure, and convention with your need to follow your inner code and explore your emotional depths, insecurities, and vulnerabilities. You respond well to practical pursuits that help you feel stronger emotionally.
You might succeed in healing, guiding, or teaching professions or a particular setback in youth leads to a specific life path.
You believe in putting both effort and heart into your pursuits. You have much concern for the underdog, and you have a good work ethic.
Saturn square Chiron
With Saturn square Chiron in your natal chart, you can feel somewhat intolerant of your vulnerable side, preferring to keep it at bay as a form of self-protection. Of course, if you don’t connect with this very real, very human side of yourself, you’re also blocking a profound source of wisdom. Allowing yourself to be “weak” from time to time can help you build up with determination to make improvements.
The tendency can be to ignore your feelings repeatedly until they come out in disruptive ways and you feel the need to blow up. Combatting this self-destructive pattern involves setting aside time to acknowledge and connect with your personal suffering or pain. Keep in mind that anger is a defense mechanism designed to avoid feelings of sadness, loss, or rejection.
Uranus conjunct North Node of the Moon
With Uranus forming a conjunction to the Moon’s North Node, you can be fascinated with progressive, new technologies, and non-traditional ways of living, but also a little hesitant to embrace these things in your youth. Once you do, you’ll find yourself more inclined to grow, improve, and thrive.
Your path is to be willing to be different or break some conventions, innovate, and learn healthy detachment that helps you embrace change. Fortunately, you adapt quickly to changing times and social conditions, making the most of these turning points.
Do watch for a tendency to move ahead without looking back. This attitude can benefit you in some ways, but there can be times when you miss valuable connections or lessons. You often function fueled by inspiration, which can lead to some erratic or inconsistent results.
At some point in your life, you recognize the need to strive toward bettering the world around you, not only your personal space within that world. When this occurs, your life is fuller.
You’re working on being adaptable. You innately understand the value of innovation, freedom, and progress. Often, you’re striving toward healthy detachment and objectivity. Certainly, you can be a visionary and reformist. Societal changes and new directions benefit you, more so than for most people. You have a unique and unforgettable personality. Friends gravitate to you naturally, often at just the right moment (it can feel fated).
