Sun-Mars

Sun and Mars share a friendly relationship with each other and both are of fire element. If you have a conjunction/mutual relationship of both in your horoscope then you can expect really good results as Mars is strong enough to deal with the fire of Sun and as we have previously established that both are best of friends. This conjunction/mutual relationships generally indicates that your father could be in the Armed forces or Police or any other service and this is true in most of the cases. Your father will be much like a warrior and one who is high on courage and will power. Also, even you will have great will power. Sun shows Government and Mars shows soldier and both these group of people need each other to function better in the society and that's why both these planets can mutually co-operate well. But as always if a planet comes too close to the Sun, it becomes combust and so if Mars comes too close degree wise, then Sun burns the good qualities of Mars. This means that during the initial years of your life you can be a timid person but as the time passes and Mars matures, after 28, you will gain courage and become a warrior like person. You can work for the Government and that too on high positions or whichever field of work that needs a lot of fighting. This conjunction/mutual relationship makes you a highly competitive person in the area of life that falls under the house where this conjunction/mutual relationship takes place in your chart. So, this placement is not considered beneficial in the 7th house which shows relationships and marriage where you have to accommodate with others rather than compete. But you are definitely a law abiding person with very high confidence and ego.
