As the Lunar Node transits in workaholic Capricorn, your shared Jupiter in rapid-fire Aries might be feeling tension equivalent to wearing jeans a size too small - not exactly comfortable, but there's potential for growth. This square indicates a time of challenge and pressure to balance the visionary dream with a realistic game plan. Jupiter in Aries gives you an abundant enthusiasm to paint a vibrant canvas of shared dreams, but Capricorn's steadfast realism is demanding that you stick to grayscale for now. Don't panic! This isn't a cosmic gag; it's a time for grounding.

In the relationship, this means the two of you need to channel your inner Capricorn and practice the unsexy art of responsibility. Yes, that means fiscal weightlifting, aka budgeting and restraint. Failure might taste more disappointing than a sugar-free cookie, but don't be put off by missteps. Learning the nuances of accountability is all part of the cosmic lesson, and no, there's no extra credit for eye-rolling. Also, trusting in the innate wisdom of Capricorn helps view the world with pragmatic glasses - and remember, it's not pessimism, it's called being realistic.

A shared Jupiter in Aries sets the stage for unbridled optimism. Working together, you naturally attract positive opportunities. Yet, this node transit brings a dose of 'practicality purée' to your hope salad. Now is not the time to bet on lottery tickets. Instead, invest in communication, shared practical goals, and don't brush off those "adulting" tasks. And on the off chance you discover a mutual interest in upholstery or tax form alphabets...well, that's just bonus bonding.

Despite the inherent struggle in this transit, consider it a fun, if slightly grueling, cosmic game designed to build a stronger foundation for your relationship. Buckle-up, because the universe just turned your "-ship" into a "hard-ship," but, silver lining, perseverance in this transit marks a significant level-up for you two. After all, nothing worth having ever came easy (or without a little help from the cosmos). But, hey, you got this!
