Sun parallel Mars
The Sun parallel Mars in the Natal Chart
Your drive is strong, and you react quickly to most situations. You are a proactive person, and you’re often the first to take action. If your Sun is also conjunct Mars, there can be times when you’re rash and impulsive. However, with the Sun parallel and not conjunct Mars, you can be quite tactical. For the most part, you are refreshingly direct, assertive, and straightforward, and your timing is quite excellent.
As a self-willed, vital, and motivated person, you’re rarely subtle or indirect. You stand up for what you believe in. When your competitive drive is stirred, which is more often than for most people, you very much want to win!
Regardless of your gender, you tend to express the traits traditionally considered masculine with great ease and smoothness.
You have wonderful personal presence and a strong aura. People notice you and might instinctively turn to you as a leader or as an authority. Even in quieter personalities, having a Sun-Mars parallel in the chart adds a bold and enterprising layer to the personality. You go after what you want, but you’re also principled. You can be especially on the ball in a crisis or unexpected situation, as your instincts are to make things right quickly and to come out on top. While you’re rarely foolhardy, you don’t readily back down from a challenge.
