With Mars transiting in Virgo, this resonates in your combined energy with an increased sense of purpose, particularly in relation to practical matters. The catalyst in this transit is your dedication to detail, heightened sense of discrimination, and increased deliberation in actions. Mars, the planet of drive and initiative, in meticulous Virgo promotes discipline and focused ambition.

This transit however conjuncts your composite Chiron in Libra, potentially heightening sensitivity around issues of balance and harmony within your relationship framework. Chiron represents our deepest wounds, therefore in diplomatic Libra, relationship wounds are particularly poignant. It may bring to the fore unresolved tension points, if harmony and mutual respect is absent, amplifying the call to address and heal these issues.

Under this influence, you may find yourselves ardently addressing issues of fairness and equality, perhaps undergoing intense conversations that might initially spark discord. However, the ultimate goal of this process is to manifest the Libran ideal of balance and mutual respect within the relationship.

Remember though, Mars can also be somewhat impatient, impulsive, and even combative. Make sure to harness its energy in a constructive manner, focusing on the Virgo influence to carefully pick apart and understand issues, rather than resorting to hasty judgments and confrontations. Use this period to consciously identify, articulate, and patiently amend your relationship's vulnerable areas.

This transit also offers a unique opportunity for growth: Your approach to healing conflict may become more assertive, causing you to confront issues head-on rather than sidestepping them. While friction might be inevitable, it's important to remember that this is just a refining process that can ultimately lead to a stronger bond between you. By facing these trials with integrity and commitment, you can turn this Martian energy into a healing force that brings about substantial growth in your partnership.
