As Pholus saunters through the transformative waters of Scorpio, squaring off with your composite Ascendant in the innovative sign of Aquarius, your relationship might feel like it's being pulled through a bit of a cosmic wringer. This cosmic dance can churn up deep, often hidden, forces within your partnership, compelling you to confront unresolved issues or secrets that you've tucked away in the metaphoric basement.

The presence of Pholus in Scorpio brings a potent, transformative energy that emphasizes deep emotional and psychic explorations. It's like having a relentless detective in your midst, one that is determined to get to the bottom of things, no matter how uncomfortable. This might involve dealing with past issues that you thought were resolved or uncovering new challenges that prompt a "did we really sign up for this?" moment.

Then, square the composite Ascendant in Aquarius, this configuration calls for an adjustment in how you present yourselves as a unit to the outside world. Aquarius prides itself on its uniqueness and independence; however, Scorpio's influence may now demand a deeper union or a shared approach that goes beyond surface-level interaction. It can feel a bit like deciding to repaint your living room together: suddenly, every choice of color or style becomes a mini-drama about deeper issues of control, taste, and compromise.

Imagine a scenario where you both are invited to a costume party. Perfect for Aquarians, right? Instead of the usual fare, however, Pholus in Scorpio insists that this time, you delve into your collective psyche to choose costumes. Perhaps you end up dressed as historical figures who share a controversial, mysterious backstory, inadvertently sparking deep conversations at the party about partnership dynamics and historical secrets.

This period is an invitation to transform how you function as a pair, pushing both of you to deal with the nitty-gritty aspects of your relationship that you might prefer to avoid. Through this, you can find a renewed depth and perhaps a little more understanding of what makes your union tick-even when it means dissecting more than just what Netflix series to binge next.
