You find yourselves at a crossroads as Pholus transits through Capricorn, forming a square with Mars in Pisces within your composite chart. This particular astrological event signals a period where bottled-up tensions might surface in unexpected ways. The key lies in how you both handle these unfolding dramas.

Pholus is known for triggering "small cause, big effect" reactions. As this centaur influences Capricorn's structured realm, even the tiniest spark could ignite a significant upheaval, especially concerning your jointly held ambitions and long-term goals. Mars in Pisces, on the other hand, embodies action filtered through the watery realm of emotions and creativity. Given this, the interaction between these energies can lead to an intensely emotional yet potentially transformative period for both of you.

You may find that issues you thought were resolved long ago resurface, demanding to be dealt with once and for all. Capricorn's influence insists on a practical approach, but Mars in Pisces desires a more empathetic, less direct method. It might be akin to deciding you need to drain the swamp but wanting to save every individual frog - a noble but slightly impractical endeavor, which could end up keeping tensions simmering.

To navigate this transit successfully, embracing the Capricornian discipline to structure your responses while allowing room for Piscean sensitivity could be considered. Acknowledge the emotional undercurrents instead of just paving them over with concrete solutions. Developing a method where sensitivity and structure meet will help mitigate the explosive potential of a Mars-Pholus square.

Although this phase may push your buttons in more ways than one, it also offers an outstanding opportunity for growth. By facing these emerging challenges head-on, the relationship can evolve, becoming stronger and more resilient. This isn't just about weathering the storm but learning how to dance in the rain, even if you occasionally step on each other's toes.
