Taurus Mars 2 degrees from 8th house ( I read it both as 7th and 8th ) and it’s one corner of a grand cross with Pluto, Jupiter and Venus.  I can push too hard, never give up and feel like love is a battlefield.  

Myrna, thanks for sharing your experiences!

Sounds like you're containing/holding a power house of expansion, commitment and drive within that grand cross! Like you would be able to do trully hard and courageous relationships and endeavours which most people couldn't or wouldn't do...

Some love bonds are indeed battlefields!

Be well
