As Chiron transits through Capricorn, crossing square with your composite Mars in Aries, buckle up; this is an exciting ride, akin to zipping down the highway on a moped while wearing rollerblades- thrilling though disconcerting.

During this period, your relationship might give the illusion of an erupting popcorn maker with unexpected bursts of issues and heated dialogues. Mars in Aries brings the energy, and by 'energy', we mean the sort of enthusiasm that makes you want to wrestle a bear or talk politics at a family dinner. Meanwhile, the Wounded Healer (Chiron, not your therapist) in Capricorn is reminding you both about structuring your energy appropriately or risk getting scolded by an imaginary but stern schoolmaster.

Prepare for tensions to rise like bread dough in a bakery. However, fret not! The intrinsic risk of that metaphor is that the dough collapses, but here's the majestic twist, you aren't dough! You are resilient fighters, charging bravely into the heart of the struggle, but remember to grasp the difference between a heroic charge and careening off a cliff. The key resides in balance, a concept as foreign to Mars in Aries as subtlety is to a sledgehammer!

This transit doctor prescribes patience, communication, and perhaps a yoga class or two. Communicate your frustrations before they transform into the volcanic eruptions that give geologists a field day. Remember, it's okay to engage the 'parking' mode amidst the 'drive' and 'reverse' of relationship dynamics once in a while.

While aspects of this square transit can feel like a pressure cooker, it's actually more like one of those wireless phone chargers- subtle, incremental yet inevitably energizing change. The key is to let it happen at its pace. Remember, even Rome wasn't built overnight. Or even over multiple nights. In fact, Rome still isn't finished, so sit back, relax, and let the construction continue at its own pace!
