Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into astrology lately, and let me tell you, this Mars square Venus transit? It’s been a ride. I decided to really track it this time, see how it played out in my own life. So, buckle up, here’s how it went down.
The Setup
First, I looked up the exact dates for the transit. Gotta know when the storm’s supposed to hit, right? I use this simple astrology calendar. Found out it was going to be exact on, let’s say, July 10th, but the effects would be felt a few days before and after.
Early Days: Feeling the Tension
Around, oh, July 7th, I started noticing things. Little annoyances, mostly. Like, my partner and I kept misunderstanding each other. Silly stuff, like who was supposed to take out the trash, or what we were having for dinner. Nothing major, but definitely a simmering tension.

- July 7th: Miscommunication over dinner plans. Ended up eating separately.
- July 8th: Snapped at my partner for leaving dishes in the sink. Felt bad immediately after.
- July 9th: Just generally feeling irritable and restless. Hard to focus on work.
The Peak: Boom!
July 10th, the day of the exact square? Fireworks. Not the good kind. We had a big argument. The previous tensions just exploaded! It started over something dumb, I can’t even remember what, but it escalated quickly. Lots of yelling, some tears (mine, I admit it), and a general feeling of “why are we even together?”. Ouch.
I also noticed I was super impulsive. I almost bought a really expensive pair of shoes I didn’t need. Luckily, I stopped myself, but it was a close call. My desire, my need for something new and exciting was through the roof.
The Aftermath: Picking Up the Pieces
The next few days were… delicate. We were both walking on eggshells. Lots of apologies, lots of talking things through. I made a conscious effort to be extra patient and understanding. My partner did the same. It was tough, but we worked through it.
- July 11th: Awkward silence at breakfast. We both apologized for the fight.
- July 12th: Had a long talk about our needs and expectations. Actually felt closer afterward.
- July 13th: Made a conscious effort to do something nice for my partner (cooked their favorite meal). Small gestures make a big difference.
Lessons Learned
So, what did I learn from tracking this Mars square Venus transit? Well, first, these transits are real. The energy is palpable. Second, awareness is key. Knowing it was coming helped me prepare, even if I couldn’t avoid the conflict entirely. I recognized the impulsiveness and the irritability as part of the transit, not necessarily as “me” being a terrible person.
And finally, communication is everything. Even when it’s hard, even when you’re feeling frustrated, talking it out is the only way through. We’re still together, a little bruised, maybe, but definitely stronger. And I’m already looking up the next transit… gotta stay prepared!
