Oh dear, it appears as though you've got Mars, the fiery, warlike planet, makes its transit through Sagittarius and it's quincunx your composite Ascendant in your Leo. This transit can arouse latent desires and passions, lighting a fire under both of you to spring into action. Now, I'm sure your relationship resembles less of a "Battle of Waterloo" and more "lively debate over who ate the last cookie," but passions can still run high nonetheless.

In astrology, quincunx is a fancy way of saying "awkward angle." Imagine Mars, all dressed up in its Sagittarian outfit, trying to have a conversation with your Ascendant in Leo but they don't see eye-to-eye. They're talking past one another, bumping into each other at the buffet table. It's like a flamboyantly choreographed dance of misunderstanding.

This transit may cause some friction or discomfort within the relationship. Enter squabbles, disagreements, and a surplus of bottled up frustrations in the mix. But fret not, dear ones. To avoid your duo turning into the next Oscar-worthy drama, communication is key. Mars is, after all, in the sign of the outspoken philosopher - Sagittarius.

During this time, you might become aware of parts of your relationship that require attention and recalibration. Temporary skirmishes may seem to blaze larger than life, a common side-effect of Leo's dramatic flair. But remember, the keyword here is "temporary". One rotten apple doesn't mean the whole barrel is spoiled - unless you forgot the grocer's, in that case, this transiting Mars might just add fuel to the fire.

On the flip side, Mars energizes and motivates. Channel this energy creatively. Plan a mutual project or adventure. Think less "Survivor"-style ordeal, more travel brochure. Mars' dash through the optimistic Sagittarian field fosters courage and spontaneity. Who knows, you might even discover a new and exciting facet to your relationship!

In true Leo fashion, this transit may shed light on the importance of individuality in your relationship. If one of you starts acting like the other's shadow, it's time to find your spotlight. Remember, you're a duo, not a duo-shaped solo act. This is a marvelous opportunity to recognize each other's uniqueness and grace. Yes, even if that means accepting your partner's penchant for pineapple on pizza.
