Sun square Pluto in synastry: what it changes in the relationship
When one person’s Sun is square the other’s Pluto, identity, direction, the pride of being oneself and intensity, depth, the power to transform rub against each other: a contact that stimulates, and asks for adjustment.

In synastry the aspect reads both ways: your Sun on their Pluto, or their Sun on your Pluto. The person whose planet is Sun brings identity, direction, the pride of being oneself; the one whose planet is Pluto brings intensity, depth, the power to transform. The square creates productive friction: both want something, not in the same way, and the relationship grows every time the friction becomes a dialogue.
The lever of a tense aspect: translate the friction into words before it becomes a reproach. The Sun seeks to be seen and recognised; Pluto seeks truth and a total bond. When each understands what the other seeks, the tension becomes shared energy.
