As Mars transits in Scorpio, you will notice an intense wave of energy encircling your relationship, touching upon deep desires, fears, and hidden aspects of your shared personality. This transit activates the profound undercurrents of the connection you share. It may confront you with circumstances that will prompt you to delve even deeper into the heart of your partnership, and it's your choice whether to resist or embrace this transformative process.

Meanwhile, the square of your Neptune in Capricorn brings an elusive dimension to this narrative. As Neptune rules illusions, dreams, and spirituality, and Capricorn represents structure and realism, you'll find the urge to keep your relationship on a grounded path. However, your visions and dreams may seem unreachable or tinged with uncertainty. This placement can foster a need to idealize the practical aspects of your relationship potentially leading to disappointment if reality doesn't match your expectations.

Picture yourselves trying to build a sandcastle close to the sea. Mars in Scorpio resembles a high incoming tide, charging towards your sandcastle with an imposing depth and intensity. At the same time, the sea's ebb and flow mimic the oscillating dreams and realities intensified by Neptune's square to Capricorn.

To navigate these transits, it is important to observe your reactions, your hesitations, and your silent mutual understandings. Remember, a durable sandcastle isn't built on loose sand, swept away by the first sign of high tide but a bit further away from the water, on compact sand, where the foundations are reliable. This scenario invites you to question the structure of your relationship, moving beyond the illusions of what you thought your partnership should look like. This period can be an aid in peeling back the layers, revealing your relationship's heart and the strength it possesses beneath. Embrace the discoveries, however intense, to successfully ride the wave of this transformative journey.
