Both planets here move quickly — Sun and Venus change position between people born weeks apart. That makes this aspect genuinely specific to the two charts rather than to a generation, which is true of only 59.9% of the combinations people look up.

What these two planets are doing

Sun

The core identity — what a person is when nothing is being performed.

Venus

What someone finds attractive and how they show affection.

At 90° the question this pairing raises is whether each is comfortable being seen as they actually are, set against whether the same gestures read as love to both. A square puts those two demands at odds rather than in agreement, which is why this aspect is read as work rather than ease.

Sun moves at about the same rate as venus, so the faster one sets how long the exact angle holds.
