Transit Sun Opposition Natal Psyche

This transit turns a bright light toward the most tender parts of the psyche. The self you present and the soul you carry sit opposite each other, each asking to be seen, heard, and honored. It can feel like exposure and invitation in the same breath.

An opposition draws a line and makes both sides visible. With the Sun here, the storyline of identity—how you show up, choose, and act—faces Psyche, the part of you that longs for union and fears being misread. Praise can feel strangely raw, criticism oddly piercing. You may catch yourself performing for love, or pulling back when the light gets too bright. Old tests of trust resurface. The heart knows it wants to be known, but the skin remembers what burned last time.

Working with this energy means letting the light do what it does best: reveal without humiliating, clarify without hardening. The task isn’t to choose ego or soul, but to host a conversation between them. When longing is named instead of dramatized, when fear is felt instead of defended, the self becomes more honest and less brittle. You begin to recognize which mirrors distort and which reflect you faithfully, and you learn to keep your hand on your own heart while you look.
