With the Moon transiting in Sagittarius and forming a square to your composite Chiron in Leo, this period may surface deep-seated wounds related to confidence and expression within your relationship. Emotions may feel more intense, highlighting issues around how both of you manage self-expression and pride when faced with the need to adapt and grow.
Sagittarius's quest for meaning and expansion clashes with Leo's focus on recognition and specialness, which can create a dynamic where one or both of you feel that your personal contributions or emotional needs are being overshadowed or underappreciated. This may manifest as one partner feeling they must dim their light to allow the other's ego room to shine, or you may both feel a challenge in supporting each other's individuality while maintaining unity.
During this transit, it's crucial to be consciously aware of how you communicate. Discussions may easily veer into territory where criticisms, rather than being constructive, end up feeling more like personal attacks. The magnifying influence of Sagittarius can amplify feelings of hurt associated with Leo's pride, leading to dramatic reactions or theatrical conflict.
To navigate this phase effectively, focus on fostering openness and honesty in revealing vulnerabilities. This is a valuable time to undertake healing dialogues where each can express their feelings without fear of dismissal or retaliation. Aim to be generous in acknowledging each other's uniqueness and contributions to the relationship. Such affirmations can be particularly healing, helping to mend and soothe any feelings of insignificance or undervaluation.
Converting this challenging square into an opportunity requires a mutual commitment to understanding and learning from these experiences. By recognizing these emotional triggers and exploring their roots, you cultivate a deeper, more resilient union that values both personal growth and collective harmony.
