The transit of Chiron in Scorpio through your composite second house has painted quite the celestial canvas for your relationship. Dressing in matching bat-print sweaters is just one way of passing through the shadowy domain of Scorpio - you might, however, prefer deeper probing and dealing with your shared resources, values, and insecurities.

During this period, you may find each other constantly asking, "Who forgot to pay the electricity bill this time?" But, joke aside, this transit brings into high relief the financial and emotional situations you share. Scorpio encourages raw honesty, and the Wounded Healer Chiron nudges you to find healing in those dark corners. The process may feel like unfolding a crumpled bank statement - somewhat therapeutic but largely cringe-inducing.

Your second house is often like the spare room in a shared apartment; most of your joint 'stuff' goes there. As the Chiron train chugs through it, trudge along, and do some relationship spring cleaning. And remember, no matter how sentimental you may be feeling, you probably don't need that broken fondue set you both used on your third date.

Where there is deep-seated financial insecurity or mismatched values, Chiron's touch is like a spot massage. It might hurt while the knots are worked out, but after the worst, there's often a soothing release. Sooner or later, you'll both realize that love can't exist on takeout lasagna alone. Throw in some home-cooked cordon bleu; keep high-end and humble, mix the abstract with the practical.

Scorpio believes in rebirth - so do consider this a time of transformation. Like fire ants building anew after a flood, this is your chance to rebuild and solidify a more balanced and healthier base for your relationship.
