During this period of Mars transiting in Pisces and squaring your composite Mars in Cancer, expect some challenges, as a unique tension is set to be present. Constructive negotiation may be more difficult, but equally necessary. Your emotional sensitivities are heightened, and reactions to perceived threats can emerge more readily. These could come from within your relationship or external forces, and the prototypical nurturing tendency of Cancer could transition into defensiveness or moodiness.

The Piscean influence introduces an element of dreaminess, presenting potential disconnects between fantasy and reality. Although this can heighten your emotional connection, its square to Mars in Cancer can also instigate divergence in emotional expectations and actual practical outcomes. Beware the potential for disappointment if reality doesn't mirror these shared dreams.

This transit invites you to navigate murky waters of heightened sensitivities, and increased emotional defenses, while acknowledging the thin line between nurturing and smothering. Clear communication is a key coping strategy during this period, avoiding assumptions about each other's emotional needs and expectations. Be wary of overly protective tendencies which can escalate to mood swings and power struggles.

While the transit suggests increased challenges, it also represents an opportunity for growth. Stimulating activities can help channel the raw Mars energy positively. Explore water-related activities, like water-sports, beach trips, or even therapeutic baths to tap into the Cancerian and Piscean elements harmoniously.

Certain warmth can be found amidst the tensions of the transit with honest introspection - consider embracing shared vulnerabilities within the relationship. This period is also conducive to evaluation and renegotiation of shared goals based on mutual respect and understanding. The transit symbolizes a test but also an opportunity to refine emotional communication, something that can strengthen your bond in the long term. Embrace these changes, and navigate the course together. The experience may reveal the strength of your unity.
