When Vesta transits in Virgo, squaring your composite Pluto in Scorpio, you might find yourselves tidying up more than just your physical space. Vesta's energy in meticulous Virgo prompts a detoxifying purge, but with the intense square to Pluto, this isn't your average spring cleaning. This cosmic dynamic digs up deeper, perhaps hidden, dynamics in your relationship, beckoning a thorough emotional and psychological declutter.

Given that Pluto loves to uncover what's beneath the surface, you might experience heightened sensitivity around power and control issues. Are there unspoken rules governing who manages what within your shared life? Is there a silent scorekeeping on sacrifices made? These questions aren't meant to prompt a domestic dispute about who forgot to take out the garbage, though as the transit intensifies, trivial matters might just ignite more significant conversations.

Vesta's devotion in Virgo can turn obsessive, and when it squares Pluto, it throws a spotlight on what each of you obsessively hold onto-whether those are habits, secrets, or resentments that do not serve the relationship's growth. Here lies the opportunity: identifying these relics and jointly deciding their fate. Can you release past grievances or transform your approach to shared challenges?

Navigating this square may initially strain your closeness as the pressure to resolve these deeper issues builds. However, the transformative potential of Pluto offers profound renewal. As you unpack and discard outdated relational patterns, you create space for more authentic interactions. Yes, the process might get as messy as that drawer full of miscellaneous items we all have (come on, we know it's there), but the clear-out can lead to more meaningful and honest connections.

Keep an eye on becoming overly critical or perfectionistic about the 'right' way to handle these revelations. The key is in the compromise and ensuring the cleanup crew (that's you both!) doesn't sweep essential feelings under the rug in favor of superficial harmony. Remember, a little dust-up can sometimes clear the air!
