As Lilith transits Cancer and sextiles your composite Lilith in Aries, you are entering a period marked by intense emotional and instinctual dynamics within your relationship. This transit emphasizes nurturing yet fierce energies which guide you to confront underlying emotional undercurrents that perhaps have been ignored or suppressed in the past. Here, the nurturing aspect of Cancer complements the bold, assertive energies of Aries, enabling both of you to protect and assert your deepest needs in a compassionate manner.

During this time, you may find yourselves dealing with issues surrounding the concept of 'home' and 'security'-not just physically but emotionally. There's a push to create a safe space where both of your hidden selves can be openly displayed and accepted. This can manifest in moments where one or both of you feels an increased need for emotional closeness intertwined with a demand for autonomy and independence. The key is to balance these seemingly contradictory desires.

Expect conversations or situations that draw out your vulnerabilities, prompting a closer look at your emotional defenses and how they've been serving or hindering your growth as a couple. Lilith's influence, especially in Cancer, doesn't shy away from the darker or more taboo aspects of intimacy and shared secrets. It challenges you to integrate these into your understanding and acceptance of each other.

Embrace the courage that Aries offers to address these themes head-on. The sextile aspect ensures that these energies are more harmoniously aligned, providing an opportunity for growth in trust and intimacy that strengthens your bond. This is a powerful time for transformation where confronting the shadow side can lead to a deeper connection and a renewed sense of personal freedom within the relationship. Harness this period to explore new depths of emotional intimacy, acknowledging and celebrating the whole spectrum of your union.
