As Mars transits into Cancer, squaring your composite Chiron in Taurus, you both will be ushered into a period of pronounced emotional learning. The energies around you contort and flow in waves of primal and not always gentle currents. This transit may feel like a boulder dropped into the still lake of your relationship; the ripple effects will resound deeply within you, stirring up undercurrents of old pains and insecurities.

The warrior energy of Mars in Cancer might push unresolved issues to the surface, demanding confrontation. It's a potent momento to face your wounds and unearth their roots. Chiron, the wounded healer of mythology, in the stubborn sign of Taurus, encourages you to diagnose and trace your pain back to its source. This doesn't create rapid transformation, but aids in steadily building resilience.

Under this transit, you may find yourselves locked in power struggles or emotional tugs of war. This might feel tumultuous but become less of a battleground and more a healing sanctuary if you allow it. Mars' assertive energy in sensitive Cancer, when managed well, can foster an environment where you face and conquer your fears sensitively, yet decisively.

Consequently, your communication - the bedrock of intimacy - can see significant progress. While Mars might inspire speaking out, align it with the healing energy of Chiron to encourage dialogue that aims for resolution rather than winning arguments. Tact is not in Mars' nature, but in Cancer, it can be. Use this energy wisely.

Remember, confronting and healing old wounds isn't an overnight process. So, prepare yourselves for this journey and support each other. Also, be patient, transformative energies may not yield immediate changes. They pave the way for gradual shifts. Embrace this testing period, for it summons your resilience and deepens your bond. Challenge, though uncomfortable, is the crucible of growth.
