What Sun Square Mars Means
The Sun squares Mars on November 19. Just one day after the Sun-Jupiter square. Making this a 48-hour window of enormous, potentially combustible energy. Where yesterday's aspect inflated your vision, today's demands you act on it. Mars in Leo wants recognition, the Sun in Scorpio wants depth, and neither one is willing to back down.
The tension here is between ego and purpose. Mars says: I want what I want, and I want it now. The Sun says: but is what you want actually aligned with who you are? When these two forces clash, the result is often conflict. With partners, with authority figures, with anyone who stands between you and your desire. But the real conflict is internal. The anger you feel toward others is usually a reflection of the frustration you feel with yourself.
Physical energy is high and needs an outlet. Exercise, competition, bold creative projects, and any activity that channels aggression into achievement are your best options. The worst option is sitting still and letting the fire build with no chimney.

How Sun Square Mars Affects Your Sign
Select your Sun, Moon, or Rising sign for a personalized reading.
Aries
Your ruling planet Mars in your creative sector clashes with the Sun in your intimacy zone. A tension between playful self-expression and deep emotional need creates internal friction. Both parts of you deserve attention. Do not sacrifice one for the other.
Taurus
Home and career are in open conflict. A domestic obligation clashes with a professional demand, or a family member's needs conflict with your ambitions. The balance is not perfect. It is just the best you can do today.
Gemini
Work obligations and creative ambitions pull in different directions. The responsible thing and the passionate thing are not the same today. Do both. Just acknowledge that neither gets your full energy.
Cancer
Financial desires clash with partner expectations. What you want to spend on and what your relationship requires are in tension. The resolution is not about who wins. It is about what actually matters.
Leo
Mars in your sign squares the Sun. Your ego is enormous, your drive is ferocious, and your patience is essentially nonexistent. Use the fire for something worthy. Burn through a creative project, not through your relationships.
Virgo
A philosophical conviction clashes with a practical concern. Your beliefs about how things should be are confronted by the reality of how things are. Let the friction refine your position rather than entrench it.
Libra
Shared finances and intimacy become battlegrounds for ego. A money argument, a sexual tension, or a power struggle in a close bond demands the kind of honesty that does not come naturally. Find it anyway.
Scorpio
The Sun in your sign squares Mars in your career sector. Your deepest sense of self clashes with your public ambitions. Are you pursuing success that aligns with who you really are, or success that just looks good from the outside?
Sagittarius
Hidden anger disrupts your public performance. Something beneath the surface (a resentment, a suppressed desire, a buried truth) threatens to break through. Better to release it consciously than to have it erupt.
Capricorn
Social dynamics and group projects demand competitive energy. You may need to fight for your position within a community or stand up for a cause that puts you at odds with the group. Stand anyway.
Aquarius
Career ambitions clash with intimate needs. A professional goal demands your full attention at the same time a personal relationship needs your presence. Something has to give. Choose what you will regret less.
Pisces
Educational, travel, or philosophical pursuits clash with daily obligations. You want to expand your horizons, but work and routine insist on your attention. Find the compromise that honors both the vision and the responsibility.
