As Mars transits through Sagittarius, its fiery energy aligns quincunx to your composite Chiron in Cancer, interweaving a substantial period of transformative tension and underscores the need for alteration within your relationship. This transit can agitate old wounds and vulnerabilities, particularly those underpinned by issues of security, nurturing, and emotional intimacy. At this moment, your relationship may encounter situations that mirror past pain, calling for a new approach in problem-solving rather than dwelling in emotional injury.

For you both, this is an intense encounter, a time to rethink your shared path and to confront the hidden pains that, until now, have been buried away. The passion and directness of Mars in Sagittarius might feel abrasive towards your sensitive Cancerian wounds, which may stimulate a feeling of unease. Despite that, do not fear the uneasiness; it could propel you towards significant growth.

Imagine a scenario where one of you comes up with an overly ambitious travel plan; however, the other may feel uneasy since, in the past, holidays didn't turn out as visualized, triggering an emotional response. This tension is key to this transit's challenge. One must marshal the energies of Mars and dredge up candid conversations about old wounds.

In this case, talking about past travel misadventures and agreeing to draft a travel plan that ensures the emotional comfort of both parties becomes the healing balm, your relational 'elixir'.

This transit may not be comfortable, but it offers you the potential for profound healing. Mars in Sagittarius is calling you not to bypass these wounds but face them head-on. It's an invitation to transform your shared baggage into wisdom, fostering a more solid foundation to deal with future challenges. Trust in the strength of your bond, respect your shared and individual wounds, and prepare to emerge from this transit stronger. Healing may be painfully slow, but it's in the journey that you'll find the essence of love and understanding.
