As Mars makes its jaunt through Gemini and forms a square with the composite Chiron in Leo, buckle up-it's going to be a bumpy yet potentially enriching ride for your partnership. This aspect is notorious for stirring up some drama, but think of it as your cosmic cue to channel your inner Shakespeare (without the tragic endings).
Mars in Gemini emphasizes dynamic communication but can also lead to your words becoming more firepower than you intended. With it squaring Chiron in Leo-the asteroid known as the "wounded healer"-it's likely that old insecurities or ego bruises might resurface within the relationship. Discussions might inadvertently touch on sore points, despite the best intentions. Leo's influence screams for attention and recognition, so be careful not to let inner drama queens take center stage!
However, there's an electric silver lining. This transit is a prime opportunity to address and heal these insecurities. It's not all about re-enacting past grievances. Mars brings energy and a proactive vibe, encouraging you to tackle these uncomfortable issues head-on. Gemini's flexibility and wit can help you find the right words, even if they come out after a few drafts.
Practically, this means being both speakers and listeners. Effective communication goes both ways-like a tennis match, but hopefully with less grunting. When one of you expresses hurt or discomfort, the other should try to listen without immediately preparing a counter-argument or, worse, a dramatic monologue.
Use this transit to grow. Not every emotional challenge is an enemy; some are teachers. If managed well, by the end of this transit, your relationship should find a new level of understanding and resilience. So, embrace the drama, learn your lines, and maybe break a leg-metaphorically, of course!
