Sun conjunction Uranus
The self as the thing that will not conform. Read as originality, as difficulty with any hierarchy, and as somebody who would rather be free than comfortable.

What these two are about together
Identity and disruption. Whether being yourself is a settled matter or something that keeps breaking and reforming.
What a conjunction does
A conjunction is the tightest relationship in a chart: two planets sitting at effectively the same point in the zodiac, rising, setting and moving together. The tradition does not read it as good or bad on its own. It reads it as fusion. Whatever the two planets each govern stops being two separate concerns and starts being one, and it is often the placement a person is least able to see in themselves, because there is no distance from which to look at it.
How it reads
The self as the thing that will not conform. Read as originality, as difficulty with any hierarchy, and as somebody who would rather be free than comfortable.
In practice
Strongest of the five, and the most dependent on which two bodies are involved. A conjunction of two comfortable planets is usually experienced as a natural talent; a conjunction of two difficult ones is usually experienced as a single unavoidable subject that keeps coming round.
What to watch for
The absence of separation. Whatever these two do, they do at once, which makes it hard to tell which of the two is driving.
