As Mars transits in Scorpio, it squares your composite Midheaven in Virgo, potentially bringing some turbulence to your shared journey. With Scorpio's intense emotional energy coursing through aggressive Mars, it's important that you navigate this period with care to avoid unnecessary arguments and power struggles.

Scorpio's energy can unearth some deeply held secrets or feelings, contributing to upset or unrest. On top of that, Mars can incite restless behavior and a sense of impulsivity. This combination might lead to some tense situations between you. It could be related to career, life goals, or the public image of your relationship, given the involvement of the Midheaven. You might face challenges in seeing eye-to-eye about your ambitions or the way you present jointly to the outside world.

However, though Mars' reputation as the planet of war might make this transit seem threatening, it can also fuel productive change. Mars in Scorpio fosters courage and determination, which could potentially be applied to resolving existing issues or realizing shared goals. To make the most of this, it's crucial to maintain open, honest communication.

Virgo's intellectual and analytical traits can help in this aspect. The composite Midheaven in Virgo signifies the pair's joint desire for logical, pragmatic solutions. By tapping into these Virgo traits, you can navigate the conflictual potential of the square, turning heated debates into constructive discussions.

Manage the intensity of Mars in Scorpio wisely; don't let it provoke you into brash actions. Channel it into focus, strength, and resilience for overcoming conflict. Attempt to thrive in this period by nurturing open dialogue and harnessing the reformative powers of Mars. Through understanding and patience, this testing period could serve as a constructive step towards your shared goals and aspirations.
