Cacti are adapted to thrive in intense sunlight and can typically handle full sun exposure for most of the day. Depending on the species, they can often tolerate 10 to 14 hours of direct sunlight daily. However, young or newly planted cacti may require some shade to acclimate and prevent sunburn. It's essential to consider the specific needs of the cactus species you have, as some may prefer partial shade in extremely hot climates.

They take in the light from the sun
Proxima Centauri is 4.2 light years away, so it would take 4.2 years for light from that star to reach us.
when the cactus is none of sun it can survive

If they are soft it could be rot which means it has too much water and needs to be dryed out quickly, if the blotches are hard it could be the start of sunburn and so just move it out of the sun.
Sunlight helps a desert cactus to grow. It's needed for photosynthesis. The sun brings its light to the photosynthetic interaction. The cactus plant brings its water, dissolved nutrients, and chlorophyll. The photosynthetic interaction between the sun and the cactus produces energizing starches and sugars. The energizing photosynthetic products are needed to fuel all of the cactus' life sustaining activities, such as growth, fruiting, and flowering.
The prickly pear cactus [Opuntia spp] gets its energy from photosynthesis. The photosynthetic interaction takes place between the plant and the sun. The sun supplies the necessary light, and the plant supplies the necessary dissolved nutrients. The result is energizing photosynthetic products.

it will take 1.5 times longer for light from the sun to get to mars than to get to earth
No, a stick cactus [Cylindropuntia spinosior] doesn't like life in the shade. It's a desert cactus that likes high heat and light, and low moisture and vegetative competition. It needs full sun.
