Transiting Mars in Libra opposite composite Midheaven in Aries

With Mars shimmying its way through your partnership's seventh house - Libra, and brazenly opposing your composite Midheaven planted firmly in Aries, you both appear to have won a celestial version of "conflicting ambitions bingo." Let's delve into the implications, shall we?

Firstly, there's an undeniable tension simmering beneath the surface. It is as if the temperamental celestial beast Mars, lord of the brawls, couldn't resist a rambunctious playdate with your relationship's public image - situated at the core of the composite Midheaven. ['I've got a fiery idea!' Mars probably gushed, and the Midheaven had little chance to resist the charismatic planet.]

During this planetary tango, you may find yourselves in professional crosshairs. You want recognition in your fields, and Mars in Libra is nudging you towards diplomatic, cordial aggression to get there. Yet, the Aries Midheaven might snort, 'Diplomacy be darned, grab the bull by the horns!' This could drive a wedge between the steady synchronicity you often enjoy, and serve some existential fries to go with it- are we not the couple we thought we were?

Suppose one of you is addressing a crucial investment meeting for your start-up, but the other suddenly feels pushed to promote their own pet project. You now have two competing priorities that are causing you to play tug of war with your resources. Quite like playing table tennis while you wear stilts, adding to the circus of this cosmic spectacle.

However, this transiting opposition is not all tar pits and minefields. It's a rare opportunity to re-evaluate and adjust the balance in your shared ambitions. Remember that Mars in Libra, while promoting assertiveness, also has peacemaking qualities. Use this energy to lace your Aries enthusiasm with some Libra levity, spin tension into negotiations, and clashes into compromises. After all, who says you can't set the stage on fire yet leave the audience applauding for the encore?
