Your Weekly Parenting Horoscope For October 17-23

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 horoscope for the week of October 17 through October 23.

We might still be recovering from drama and delays caused by last weekend’s full supermoon, but there's more excitement in store this week. Thankfully, chances are it'll affect you in a positive, if not thoroughly joyful, way. The planet of love and money, Venus, will be entering Sagittarius on Tuesday, where it'll remain until November 11. Instead of just dreaming about that hiking trip or date night in the city, this romantic, adventurous energy will make us all want to take action so we can have new experiences. Venus' move will affect the social and love lives of fire signs (Aries, Leos, and Sagittarians) and air signs (Geminis, Librans, and Aquarians), the spiritual, inner sector for earth signs (Taurus, Virgoans, and Capricorns), and career sector for water signs (Cancers, Scorpios, and Pisceans).

Then, on Saturday, the sun will officially usher us into Scorpio season, which lasts until November 21, so anticipate a month filled with emotional intensity and fascination with the darker side of life (hey, Halloween!).

As long as your heart is 100 percent in it, and you're willing to put your nose to the grindstone (maybe shifting some things around in your daily schedule and recruiting friends to pitch in, too), you'll see a positive upshot.
