The Mars transit in Scorpio creates an intense energy that envelops you and challenges your relationship. It's a burning wave, daring you to face the darker depths of your relationship. Mars is the warrior planet and Scorpio, its traditional ruler, intensifies this assertive energy. This transit often manifests as a sense for dominance, potential conflict, but also transformative sex or deep emotional purification between you.

Simultaneously, your composite Lunar Node in Aquarius is squared by this transit, calling for a recalibration of your shared objectives and destiny. Aquarius brings ideals of egalitarianism and individuality into the mix, often creating a push and pull between the individual and collective among you. There's an opportunity here to redefine your understanding of freedom within the context of your relationship. Expect this period to challenge your tendency to conform, urging you to break molds and shatter the status quo.

The volatility of Mars squaring the Node suggests you might face a series of heated moments propelled by heightened emotions, disagreements, or confrontations. However, this test only seeks to fortify your connection by revealing the flaws and strengths within your bond. These trials are meant to make way for a more robust and supportive relationship that unites you as individuals while giving you space to flourish independently.

This is also a period for innovation and breakthroughs. The Aquarian influence might inspire you to reimagine a shared future, to construct something groundbreaking within your union. The friction caused by Mars will bring the intensity needed to fuel this change, enabling you to affect authentic transformation within your relationship together.

Finally, remember that even within the volatility, the friction is fertile ground for growth. Embrace this transit as an opportunity to delve deeper, evolve, and redefine your common path. Exercise patience, and give each other the grace to grow amidst this transformative transit.
