I welcome sharing my writing, links, quotes and Astro Memes,
but copying and passing off my work as ones own, is plagarism!

The BIG NEWS today is the Sun in Capricorn opposes Mars Rx in Cancer. This aspect is very active and intends on getting a rise out of people, turning over some tables or coming in first. Either way, this aspect is looking for a fight, competition or a confrontation. It is extremely bold, assertive and aggressive.

If you are not prepared to debate (heavily) it's probably wise not to step into the ring, pit, or onto the path, turf. Just sayin'. Be ready to rumble if you care to debate it. In other words, don't open the can of worms if you aren't prepared to go the distance. Sun opposing Mars will stand toe-to-toe with anyone, and enjoy every minute of it.

THE GLOVES ARE COMING OFF! We can see this occurring in media in real time with politicians, celebrities and YouTube with competing channels. People are calling each other OUT! You might hear phrases such as; "Oh you wanna go there! We can go there!" This calling out might even sound like a threat, even if it isn't. By the way, Pam Bondi was made for days like this.

Did you hear Senator Mullin (R-OK) at Pete Hegseth's confirmation hearing yesterday call out the others Senators saying, "How many senators have showed up drunk to vote at night?" I feel this same way about a lot of yoga teachers, which I will get to in this writing.

When the Sun is present, think 'identity'. When the Sun is challenged by a hard aspect, think 'identity crisis'. This involves one's ego, self-importance, self-confidence, self-worth and character. Needless to say, but I'll say it anyway, it is easy to take things way too personally when the Sun is involved, just as it is when the Moon is involved. Not everything is meant to be taken personally or is personal, but yet, that's how we respond.

The sense of identity is constantly being challenged when the Sun opposing Mars is present. In the natal chart, this would indicate a young child who had parents that created the 'fight back' tendency, telling the child they should have fought back, meaning hit the other child. Keep reading . . .

As a result, the child grows into an adult and the battle continues with not only others, but authority figures. And usually the very authority figures who coaxed, prodded and pushed the child to fight back, now find their adult child fighting with them. Children know when something is wrong, even if a parent tells them to do it. And worse, the child grows up knowing this and who put them up to it.

This aspect is pushing you to RECOGNIZE the difference between being assertive (standing up for yourself) and being aggressive (bullying or fighting with others). The Sun opposing Mars is definitely a fighter that does not back down from a fight, a challenge or competition, but it is also not a bully, although it can be one. Standing up and calling out is simply not the same as being a bully. This aspect is too afraid not to speak up and stand their ground. Why? Because they could lose everything if they don't.

As with any aspect, the energy can be channeled inappropriately and ineffectively taking a martyr stance. The Sun opposing Mars can reveal a lot of figure pointing, blame, disagreement and constant dissension. It will always be someone else's fault with a conversation about what they did or didn't do. Even if there is nothing to disagree about, this aspect will find something to argue about. Remember, the fight came from childhood, so the adult is now doing everything they can to show how tough, strong, capable and confident they are, as they continually fight to find their own self-worth. It's sad.

It is important to understand, if such a personal tone is taken, rather than a 'cause', then all of these battles fought will not add to your success, in fact they will take away from your success. When you find others turning their head or backing away, it is likely they are backing away from a possible argument, debate, disagreement or worse, a fight.

The Sun and Mars are personal planets, so this is a very personal thing. It is best to find a cause that you can relate to on a personal level that will help you channel this aggressive energy, lest you find yourself fighting over nothing with your friends and family.

This aspect can result in a loss of self-control. It is also very sexual as the word 'conquest' is the best word for this aspect when it comes to sex. This is because competition and self-worth are involved. The ol' notches in the belt is more important than the relationship itself.

The Sun opposing Mars has some Scorpio traits as well because Mars is the ancient ruler of Scorpio, so this aspect can be mean, cruel, jealous, vindictive and manipulative. This is a tough aspect and you will need to figure out how to channel this aspect constructively and productively.

This aspect can also make a very strong and courageous leader, if the ego has been checked and doesn't take words to sensitively or seriously. Again, the Sun and Mars are personal planets. As a leader, keeping the mission in focus is more important than if the troops send you a Christmas card.

The Sun square Mars fights too many unnecessary battles. Why? Because the individual feels it so personally. Relate these energies to others so that you can take up a real effective cause. If this aspect shows up in your Solar Return or Natal Chart, the best thing you can do is own it, so you can rightly channel it. Just knowing it exists can help you dial it down and stop being so confrontational. There is no fun with someone who wants to fight, complain and argue all the time.

I will readily admit, I do like to have conversations about politics, world and current events, but I do not have any conversations with anyone who doesn't like to. I don't even talk Astrology with someone who is disinterested or put off by it. I don't need to do that. On my social media, you can tune-in or out. On my own platform, on this website, you can tune-in or out. I don't debate when people don't want to debate. If you chime in, then you walked through the door. Simple.

As with anything else in Life, as you mature and learn to control your own aggression, you can accomplish a lot because of the strong drive serves in reaching whatever goal is set.

As a gentle reminder, Pluto is the higher octave of Mars, and Pluto is in Aquarius now for 20 years. Aquarius rules Congress, the Senate and the House of Representatives. This will be interesting to watch the Senate hearings today as Pam Bondi is up for confirmation today for America's Top Cop (Attorney General), and she is a Scorpio, the detective and law enforcer of the zodiac. NEVER EVER lie to a Scorpio. This will be fun because you know, THEY are scared to death of her.
