Well, you two, brace yourselves. That Mercury in Aries is not just knocking at your door - oh no, it's dramatically kicking it open like the star in a fiery action film. Communicative Mercury, somewhat like a cosmic espresso shot, speeds up your usual dialogue into a crackling, rapid-fire exchange. It's enough to make a Zen monk jittery!

With this square aspect to your composite Ascendant in Leo, you may be tempted to turn your life into an open-floor debate. Although, knowing Leo's penchant for drama, there's something about heated debates that can resemble vivacious theatrical performances. I must commend your commitment to variety though - comedy, tragedy, and melodrama, all wrapped into one!

Typically, 'squaring off' with a composite Ascendant indicates challenges that'll lead to growth, if not overdone. In your case, Leo must resist the urge to hog the limelight and react dramatically to Aries-sized disagreements. Controversial, I know, but Leo energy muttered under their breath, "All drama is good drama", didn't you?

However, Aries does bring a delightful punch of clarity to Mercury's communicative role, transforming those simmering passive-aggressive innuendos into straight-forward exchanges. There is charm in brutal honesty, provided said honesty doesn't suddenly give way to World-War-III-scale arguments over who forgot to pick up milk.

Amidst this raging astrological storm, let's hang on to the silver lining (Leo, your golden lining too). Aries could teach you to be direct, while Leo will sprinkle in some charisma and creativity. The result? An honest and appealing form of communication in your relationship. In essence: keep your composure, embrace the spice of conflict, but remember that the aim is to communicate, not annihilate.

Whatever happens throughout this transit, remember to laugh- and occasionally, let Mercury in Aries enlist a 'sheesh, can you not' from you. It's a journey, after all. Who said astrologers don't have fun with their readings, eh?
