4. I would never base major life decisions on astrology alone, but

I say err on the side of caution during Mars Rx. In my experience, most "new" projects started under this influence crash and burn as soon as the planet goes direct. (Hey, I said most; your free will should determine which path to take.)

As for the non-astrological element...I don't think one partner should pursue a new opportunity if the other partner loses their economic independence and job security altogether. Especially if it could hurt the relationship's ability to function or the couple's ability to survive as a unit.
