Ah, you two. Mars, the warrior's planet, is strolling through the deep ocean of Pisces, bumping right into your composite Chiron in Scorpio. Grab your water wings, this might get rough. But, as seasoned swimmers of the celestial sea will tell you, it's in the roughest waters that pearls are found.

Now, Chiron, fondly referred to as the "wounded healer," might give you a jab in your vulnerable sides that Scorpio secretly reinforces. Twinges you were hoping to keep stashed in Pandora's box, perhaps? This square isn't here to sugarcoat, but it gets easier when you remember that squares, despite their sharp corners, are awfully good at making snug, safe homes.

With Mars in Pisces, you're faced with the task of resolving passion with compassion. You might find yourselves engaged in emotionally charged battles - using poetry as weapons and metaphors as shields. Remember, if your duels result in casualties of feelings, apologize with a chocolate cake, not unfrosted cupcakes. This transit calls for extra layers of sweetness.

The humorous twist here is that Mars can be about as comfortable in Pisces as an octopus sporting hiking boots. No tentacle traction, you see? You may feel the effects, manifesting as an obscurity in your usual stride as a couple. One moment you're ready to conquer Mount Everest, the next you're cuddling under a blanket fortress eating ice cream. Enjoy both. Variety is the flavor of life.

During this phase, it's essential to reflect upon old wounds, a scenario illustrated by your once favorite pet - fear. You grew him since your relationship's infancy, feeding him every time troubles brewed. This period is perfect to send him to diet camp, declaring a major detox on clinging fears and resentments.

Beside the presence of uncomfortable truths and the current limbo of your conquests, remember, honesty is the best policy. In your emotional transactions, don't try to shortchange each other. Beware of window shopping for quick fixes. The interplay between Mars and your composite Chiron can be a healing time, if you allow it. This, too, shall pass. At least until the next celestial shenanigan.
