With Pholus making its adventurous way through Sagittarius and squaring your composite Moon in Leo, your relationship may experience some dramatic flair-ups, akin to adding a bit too much spice to an already zesty dish. Pholus is notorious for triggering small causes that lead to big effects - think of it as the celestial butterfly whose wingbeat starts a hurricane. Within the grand theater of your union, this may translate to seemingly minor disagreements or emotional missteps, magnifying into significant learning moments.

The Moon in Leo in your composite chart symbolizes a need for affection, validation, and celebration within the relationship. You both thrive on the warmth and light of acknowledgement from each other. However, Pholus's square introduces a dynamic tension, suggesting that your usual modes of emotional expression and need for admiration might encounter some unexpected challenges. The fiery energy of Leo clashing with the expansive nature of Sagittarius can lead to situations where one or both of you feel that you're on a stage, yet somehow the audience (being the other person in the relationship) isn't quite getting the script.

During this transit, it's also possible that issues related to freedom and space become prominent. Sagittarius, ruled by Jupiter, urges exploration and expansion, while Leo seeks intense co-existence and loyalty. Balancing these could be your main plotline for a while. Pholus may stir restlessness or a desire for change in one or both of you, which might feel more like a sudden plot twist than a well-developed story arc.

Navigating this square effectively requires acknowledging each other's needs for both independence and admiration without overreacting to the minor disturbances Pholus may throw into your path. Think of it as an opportunity for both of you to grow, not just individually, but as a duo who can handle a rogue wave or two and still sail smoothly. Sometimes, the hurricane set off by a butterfly's wing can clear the air for a newer, fresher landscape.
