Past.

What it changes

What you are trying to become, and what you need to be recognised for · How you think and speak

The two work as one, impossible to separate.

Why?
Sun in Aquarius → · Mercury in Aquarius →

The Sun governs… what you are trying to become, and what you need to be recognised for. Mercury governs… how you think and speak — the pace, the level of detail, what you keep to yourself.

It concerns you if your birthday falls…

Calculated over every birth from 1920 to 2030 (Paris day): depending on the year, the Sun can be a day early or late, hence the range. Your Sun is only one point of your chart: the app also looks at the other nine, to the minute.
