PROGRESSED SUN CONJUNCT THE NATAL ASCENDANT

The Sun, whether it is the natal or progressed Sun, speaks of our vitality, our energy, and our ability to recuperate.  It also deals with the ego, our ambition and partly governs the success you can attain in life.  The Sun also is representative of the Father and sometimes other authority figures prominent in your life, although Saturn often covers this.

 

The progressed Sun moves one degree per year and over a period of your lifetime will move the length of time you are alive.  If you live 100 years, the sun will progress approximately 100 degrees.  It will make a semi-sextile to the natal Sun at 30, the semi-square at 45 and the sextile at 60.  At approximately 72 it makes a Quintile to its original position. For those lucky enough to live into their nineties, they will experience the square at age 90.  It will also make many aspects throughout your lifetime to other planetary placements in the birth chart, including the Ascendant.  In order for it to reach the Ascendant, the natal Sun must be within 90 degrees, give or take depending on your lifespan to the ascendant (11^th -12^th house) at birth to make any connections to this significant placement of your Ascendant.

 

The effects of the Progressed Sun on your Ascendant is a three year aspect and the middle year is the most significant.  This will be when it becomes direct and 0 degrees in separation to your Ascendant.  This conjunction can produce both challenging conditions and easy reinforcing life conditions that will aid you in moving forward in life.  This is partly due to the transits that will make contact to this placement over this period of time as well as the natal condition of your Ascendant.

 

When a conjunction occurs, there are often potential opportunities for advancement in the profession.  At times people in authority will aid the individual in achieving their goals and can become a motivating factor.  In some cases, these opportunities come to the father.  In a woman’s chart, this is often a time of marriage or engagement, and opportunities for meeting up with a suitable suitor are enhanced, especially if the Vertex is involved or Venus and Jupiter or if the seventh house is being activated.  The health is usually good when the conjunction has easy aspects from transits affecting it.  The goals that are being focused on often have a greater chance for success.

 

If, however, this conjunction is receiving challenging aspects from other planets in transit, especially outer planets, the chances for success are greatly diminished or this individual will have to work very hard in order to achieve the same level of success that the easy flow aspects would create.   Much of what transforms depends on which planet is transiting the conjunction and its house placement as well as its house placement natally.  You can also look to the house it rules in the natal chart to get more information as to how events may unfold and what areas of life will be involved.  There may also be difficulties with the health of this individual although you would have to look at the overall condition of the natal Ascendant and Sun as well as any planets in the twelfth house, known as the house of ingrained health issues, if poorly aspected and sometimes there are indicators in the sixth house.

 

When the progressed Sun advances towards the Ascendant, we may feel a draw to make changes to our life that would enhance our world.  Some will make changes to their appearance while some become involved in exercise routines that enhance the body.  Paying close attention to our well-being is always recommended and especially so when this conjunction is (again if we were born with the Sun in the 11^th or 12^th house) about to take hold in our life.
