As Mars parks its fiery chariot in Aquariu's star-lit garage, squaring off against your composite Pluto in Scorpio, brace yourselves for some cosmic fireworks. Mars, the celestial troublemaker, might have some, let's call them 'challenging' cosmic box-gifts, under its wings for you.

Revolving around power dynamics in your relationship, the transit can lead to tension-filled discussions about shared resources, belief systems, or even who gets the last piece of pizza on Saturday nights. Let's hope it's pepperoni!

Don't be surprised if the heat gets turned up on long-standing issues. At times you might even feel like you just stepped out of the sauna... only to fall into a jacuzzi. Scorpio's intensity under Pluto's influence paired with the rebellious spirit of Aquarius could have emotions bubbling over.

However, before you whip out your battle armor, take a moment. Mars in Aquarius encourages independent thinking and can act as a catalyst, helping you break free from outdated patterns that may have felt like you were trapped in a cosmic groundhog day. No one's expecting you to embrace each other singing 'Kumbaya,' but it's worthy to note that a squaring situation doesn't always translate to gloom.

Harmony may seem as out of reach as trying to keep a diet during Christmas period but remember, the energy raging around you can also be channeled towards productive transformation. The key lies in your willingness to talk openly (oh, and make sure it's a two-way thing, you're a team after all) and switch things up a bit.

This phase calls for you to look at everything together, even if it feels like you're navigating a labyrinth in the dark. Spoiler alert, there's no minotaur, just the two of you.

As turbulent as Mars' tango with Pluto might be, this is a priceless opportunity to redefine both your personal boundaries and the dynamics of your relationship. So get ready, it's not every day you wrangle with the god of the underworld and the god of war. If you're lucky, they might just let you set the rules of the game.
