Between two people
What does Mars conjunction Sun mean in synastry?
Purpose and drive combine into a single push. Energetic and warm, with a short fuse when plans are frustrated. The pair push each other forward and get a great deal done together. When plans are blocked, tempers flare quickly; agreeing who leads where, and taking time out when frustrated, keeps the energy constructive.
The usual mistake
Where does Mars conjunction Sun usually go wrong?
One push, one direction, and a short fuse when it is blocked. The Sun person's plans and the Mars person's drive merge, and nobody knows whose idea it was.
Over time
How Mars conjunction Sun plays out over time
- Early on. Purpose and drive merge, and the pair push each other forward from the start.
- Under pressure. The shared fuse is short when plans are blocked.
- Years in. A great deal gets done together; cooling off before reacting helps.
Who feels it
