When Pholus makes its slow and profound transit through Scorpio, it tends toward unearthing secrets and catalyzing transformative events, particularly events that have a long-lasting impact on one's psychological landscape. Now, pair this with the fact that it's squaring your composite Venus in Virgo, and you're in for a mixologist's dream at a cosmic cocktail party - although half the ingredients are mystery boxes!

Venus in Virgo typically finds comfort in the details and seeks perfection in relationships. It's the reason you two might opt to reorganize your sock drawers together for fun on a Saturday night, or why your shared to-do lists are more color-coordinated than a pack of Skittles. However, with Pholus stirring the pot in secretive Scorpio, expect some of those well-hidden old emotions or perhaps unsaid gripes to bubble up to the surface.

It's as if you're both archaeologists in the ruins of a previously unexplored ancient city, and suddenly, you've hit an emotional jackpot - but not necessarily the treasure chest type. More like discovering that the city's ancient plumbing system is about to overflow. This period demands a confrontation with the deeper aspects of your emotional connection, particularly those that aren't as serene as your meticulously planned life might suggest.

Imagine this scenario: You've planned a quiet, romantic evening. The table is set, the candles are lit, and just as you're about to serve the meticulously prepared meal, the kitchen sink decides to block up and flood. It's unexpected, it's messy, and suddenly, instead of romance, it's all hands on deck against the rising tide.

This is a time when the universe is challenging you to look beyond the immediate chaos and see what fundamental issues need to be addressed for the health and prosperity of your relationship. It's about knowing when the flood is actually a sign of a bigger issue, and coming together to fix those pipes to prevent future disasters. While it can be unnerving, dealing bravely and directly with these revelations can ultimately bring you closer, creating a bond that's both deeper and more resilient. Embrace this period as a necessary spring cleaning of your emotional foundations, and remember, it's okay to laugh at the absurdity of life's surprises - even when you're knee-deep in metaphorical floodwaters.
