Chiemi, with transiting uranus in aries in 10th quincunx natal mars in scorpio in 5th, you are hesitandt to stand out and prefer to even out any tensions in yourself and around you by making frequent sarcastic/cynical/dry witted quips that border on passive aggressiveness (shown by rulership/aspects). You don;t want the confrontation but satisfy your annoyance by making these quips that only you fully understand and serve to vent whilst not exactly speaking outright - I think others admire you for this and understand you have enough on your plate than to deal with more sh*t, so in my estimation your technique is pretty smart for where you are at right now and though passive - paradoxically shows maturity in not wanting to add fuel to the flames.
In the shorter term, mars has been transiting the 4th and squaring uranus in the 7th house of open enemies, ruled by saturn on the MC. This would explain how you regard your mum's boyfriend, because basically your saying, he's not my parent and I won't co-operate with him - and besides my father wouldn't like him, and I don't either.
at the same time, your mum has uranus transiting her 4th and opposing natal uranus, ruler of 3rd house of communication, and ruling mars in aquarius in the 3rd. Mars is ruling moon in aries, ruling intercepted cancer in 8th, 8th being ruled by merc in 7th, ruling venus 7th house ruler, and by rulership ties back into the uranus dynamic.
this translates to your mum being at a significant crossroads in terms of questioning her ideals and belonging to groups, friends, romantic options, and family. She will be weighing up her attractiveness/appearance and values and her relationship with potential partners. there is a lot of tension, provoking confrontation, and ultimately questioning of her whole lifestyle and how she feels about herself (shown by rulerships/aspects/houses).
adding emphasis to this questioning of her self/values/lifestyle/partners/and everything pretty much, is that she has pluto transiting her second, ruled by jupiter which is natally sextile pluto opposition saturn (prominent to the DSC) and jup also quincunx sun in 7th.
so essentially, deep money and income issues are being coupled with spending, bordering on extravagance and not having a care where the next dollar is coming from. Underlying this are long standing disputes involving support/who is responsible/supposed to pay for stuff, and probably involves settlement/legal issues implications, and even current partner contributions. she is also likely using intimacy almost like a form of currency and feels the pressure of how long that 'currency' will last - based on her age/looks etc.
so your mum has a lot going on, she is extra sensitive now to how she fits in with others, and is likely to be feeling financial strain, and the pressure of maintaining a lifestyle that she is not sure she even wants. she would like some change and freedom and more socialising/fun/and having a splash and is getting frustrated by not having these things quite as she would like.
but it's not your fault, she knows that, it's a significant time for her as she comes to terms with the reality of moving out of the more youthful years and this can be painful especially for very social/attractive/might I add sexy, people like your mum.
so where as your mum can be on a bit of a short fuse and tending towards nitpicking everything because she herself is feeling a tad insecure, you are trying to keep things from getting too outrageous and confrontational, whilst trying to stay cool, be cool, and chill for as long as you can maintain it.
