Your Weekly Parenting Horoscope For December 5-11

It's true: Your zodiac sign plays a part in how you can live your best life — from which sex position you should try to targeting your dream-career direction. Romper partnered with astrologer Maressa Brown to share how every sign can put the current astrological aspects to work and enjoy even more happiness, wellness, and love every week. Here's your weekly parenting horoscope for December 5-11.

You'll have plenty of opportunities to get out of your comfort zone and embrace anything unconventional — especially in matters of love and money — once romantic Venus moves into Aquarius on Tuesday, where it remains until January 3. For air signs (Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius), this could mean finding special opportunities to squeeze in spontaneous, adventurous fun with the kids and your partner.

At the same time, we may have to put our nose to the grindstone and learn a tough lesson or two this week with the confident sun pairing up with taskmaster Saturn in Sagittarius on Saturday, pushing you to take a look at the big picture, evaluate your goals, and perhaps work even harder to get where you want to go.

Read more below to find out what this week's forecast means for your sign.

Aries (March 21–April 19)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

While the planet of friendship and love is in your eleventh house of networking from Tuesday until January 3, your inbox is likely going to be packed with invites to holiday parties, happy hours, and invites for coffee dates with friends. You may be a bit overwhelmed and unsure how you'll get childcare for all of those outings, but sit down and talk it through with your partner and/or sitter. Together, you'll come up with a workable plan.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

Around Saturday, when taskmaster Saturn and the confident sun pair up in your eighth house of sexual intimacy, you may be frustrated if your sex life isn't exactly firing on all cylinders. First of all, give yourself a break. It's not easy juggling ~all of the things~ you have on your plate. But if you're craving more, express your needs and make a plan to get your desires fulfilled.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

Around Saturday, romantic Venus in your ninth house of adventure forms a stressful angle to Saturn in your seventh house of partnership, and you may just want to do something, anything out of the norm with your partner and kids. Instead of planning a full-on vacation, see if you can find the joy and rush in something a bit closer to home (take adorable baby-wearing pics at the Christmas tree farm or take your big kid ice skating for the first time). Even the most everyday activities can make wonderful memories.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

Around Saturday, when taskmaster Saturn pairs up with the confident sun in your sixth house of wellness, you'll have a unique opportunity to push your fitness plan one step further. Maybe your gym is finally offering sitting services or you and your BFF scheduled in a joint stroller jog. You'll be tempted to crank up the intensity right out the gate, but going slow and steady with this routine gets you further in the long run.

Leo (July 23-August 22)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

While romantic Venus is in your seventh house of partnership from Tuesday to January 3, you'll have an easier time getting on the same page as your bae — from squeezing in date nights to sharing responsibilities around the house and with the kids. Take advantage by plotting out the game plan for reaching shared, long-term goals together; it'll bring you even closer.

Virgo (August 23-September 22)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

Around Saturday, when taskmaster Saturn and the confident sun pair up in your fourth house of home life, you may feel a crazy amount of pressure to get certain projects done around the house or get a grasp on upcoming holiday plans with family. But there's no need to drive yourself nuts. Ask loved ones to pitch in and help, and you'll feel as though a huge weight has been lifted.

Libra (September 23-October 22)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

Around Tuesday, communicator Mercury in your fourth house of home life forms a stressful angle to go-getter Mars in your fifth house of romance, and it may be especially challenging to turn your fantasies (like a bath and glass of wine, or just cuddling with your partner after the baby goes down) into reality. Sure, you may be disappointed, but use the moment as an opportunity to plan ahead. That way, you'll get exactly what you've been dreaming of.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21)

While Venus, the planet of love, is in your fourth house of home life from Tuesday to January 3, expect a flurry of bond-bolstering activities with loved ones (like enjoying an impromptu get-together with extended family or having your BFF and her toddler over to bake cookies). One hitch: You usually like to have control of all the details, but doing your best to go with the flow now makes it even easier for everyone to enjoy themselves and make some pretty sweet memories.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

You may feel a lot of pressure to tackle a major personal goal (like using your Fitbit to get your daily calorie burn up or donating breast milk) around Saturday when taskmaster Saturn pairs up with the confident sun in your sign. But don't feel like you have to go all in right this moment. Plotting out practical steps you can take starting now and going well into the future gets you further in the long-haul.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

You may feel like you need to do some self-work that would require serious solo time (think meditation) around Saturday when the confident sun pairs up with taskmaster Saturn in your twelfth house of spirituality. Open up about your needs with your partner or your parents. They'll likely be more than happy to pitch in with the kids, so you can get your much-needed, well-deserved time-out.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

You'll get a burst of creative energy that you'll instinctively want to put toward your relationships while romantic Venus is in your sign from Tuesday until January 3. This may look like painting ornaments with the kids, trimming the tree with your S.O., or sharing that innovative idea for a side hustle with your best friend. Basically, take advantage of any opportunity to express yourself artistically while spending time loved ones, and you'll be feeling blissed out.

Pisces (February 19-March 20)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

You may be stressed about a deadline and really want to impress higher-ups around Saturday when taskmaster Saturn and the confident sun pair up in your tenth house of career. Putting pressure on yourself to excel is natural, but don't doubt yourself. Give yourself a timeout for some quick deep breathing or a cuddle sesh with your kid, then get back to the drawing board. You've got this!
