SUN OPPOSING MARS
This aspect depicts conflict which, when resolved, results in growth. Oppositions show a tug of war between opposing forces. If they are resolved, then the oppositions become the backbone and strength of the chart.
It is important to understand that the Sun rules masculine energy, the identity, ego, individuality, power and pride, while Mars is busy, hyper and action-oriented. The Moon is emotional, while Mars is assertive, aggressive and competitive. This aspect reminds of the individual who simply cannot find common ground with anyone and always has a problem with someone. It's always someone else's fault or there is always something wrong with someone else, but not the individual who has this placement.
The sense of identity is constantly being challenged. As a young child parent figures were probably the opposition creating the 'fight back' tendency. As an adult the battle continues with other authority figures. The individual with this natal placement or who experiences this aspect as a transit needs to learn the difference between assertion and aggression.
This aspect reveals an individual who is a fighter and who never backs away from a challenge or from competition. Disagreement and dissension is a constant problem.
