You've likely heard the saying, "The couple that plays together stays together," but with the Moon transiting in Cancer square your composite Sun in Aries, a revised version might be more fitting - "The couple that processes strong feelings together gets to joke about it later."

Cancer hosts the Moon like a worried mother trying to bring a rebellious Aries child back into the warmth of the house, even as the child is already planning their escape route into the wild. In effect, emotional conversations may take the lead during this transit. Your shared Aries Sun might be like, "Don't cramp our free-spirited style," but the Cancer Moon is relentlessly whispering, "Talk about your feelings."

So, this period could unearth profound emotions within your union. You might just find yourselves deeply discussing whether pineapple is a legitimate pizza topping or if adding the milk before the cereal is a weird alien concept. Jokes aside, be prepared for truly intense dialogues cleansing the hidden corners of your relationship.

As the Moon squares your Sun, the cosmic copilot's seat could get a bit uncomfortable, casting echoings of turbulence in your emotional waves. Ever danced the awkward two-step around your living room table because both of you, in your staunchest Aries ways, insist on leading? Well, that conflict of egos is an Aries production you'd be well familiar with. But Cancer's nurturing energy will soothe those quick-fire sparks, like applying a cold pack on an accidental stove mishap.

Remember, Aries demonstrates their empathy in assertive actions not just empty words, while Cancer needs an emotional-deep-dive certification. But even if it seems the two of you are speaking your love in different dialects, consider it more of a thrilling bilingual interaction.

At the end of the day, beloved Aries, even when times seem a bit 'crabby,' knowing that your partner is equally invested in scaling the emotional mountains with you is indeed the silver lining to this Cancer Moon transit.
