With Pholus transiting in Sagittarius and forming a square to your composite Sun in Aries, your relationship is entering a period marked by significant transformation and potent events that could challenge your usual ways of interacting. Pholus, the centaur that symbolizes the catalyst of great changes from small beginnings, in fiery Sagittarius brings to light issues of freedom, beliefs, and expansion in your partnership. This effect, squared with the Sun in Aries, which governs your joint identity, emphasizes a period of intense learning through conflicts or challenges that are likely to arise.

You may find that seemingly minor misunderstandings or differences in opinion have the potential to ignite larger relational dynamics that you hadn't anticipated needing to address. This is a time when the philosophy of 'a small spark can burn a prairie' will prove true in your interactions. Pay close attention to your communications and the underlying beliefs each of you brings into discussions, as these could be sources of friction or, conversely, growth.

The adventurous spirit of Sagittarius influenced by Pholus might urge you to expand beyond current boundaries, be it through travel, exploring new philosophies, or engaging in experiential learning together. However, while you are pushed to grow, the Aries Sun's drive for autonomy can create a tension between wanting to be together and needing to be individuals. Balancing these energies calls for mutual respect for personal freedoms and shared goals.

This transit is powerful for initiating change. It invites you to look deeply at your relationship's foundational beliefs and to realign them if they no longer serve your mutual path forward. Use this energetic time to actively choose which patterns you want to continue and which ones you are ready to evolve beyond in order to foster a more honest and dynamic union.
