As Eros transits through Cancer and forms a square with your composite Lunar Node in Scorpio, you are entering a phase where emotional and sexual dynamics within your relationship will be highlighted and tested. This aspect demands a careful examination of how deeply entwined both your desires and fears are, and how these elements affect your collective spiritual or karmic journey.

Eros in Cancer brings a profound depth to feelings, emphasizing a nurturing yet passionate energy in your interactions. It'll ask you to look at where you both find comfort and emotional security through each other. However, this nurturing demand contrasts sharply with the Scorpio influence on your Lunar Node, which calls for transformation, intensity, and deep bonding at a more profound, often hidden level.

The square aspect indicates a tension between these emotional (Cancer) and transformational (Scorpio) energies. You might find yourselves grappling with issues around vulnerability and trust, each of you or perhaps one more than the other, may feel at times overwhelmed by the intensity of what is being asked emotionally and spiritually. It's a critical period to address how you handle secrets, intimacy, and power within your relationship. Are there areas where either of you feels manipulated or overly possessive?

The challenge here is to find a balance. Using the protective and caring energy of Cancer can facilitate healing, helping mitigate some of the more challenging expressions of Scorpio's transformative fire. While it may be uncomfortable, this transit provides an excellent opportunity for growth. By confronting these intense emotional currents, you get to forge a deeper and more authentic connection.

Navigating this period will likely require open communication about your fears and desires without losing sight of mutual compassion and understanding. Embrace the vulnerability this time brings; it's the pathway to a stronger, more resilient union.
