How Venus In Leo Is Going To Shake Up Your Marriage This Week

by Maressa Brown

It's true: Your zodiac sign can offer insight into plenty of random moments in your everyday life, from how you can best tackle your toddler's worst tantrums to identifying your career goals. Romper partnered with astrologer Maressa Brown to share how you can make what's going on up in the sky work for you and score even more bliss and balance in your day-to-day. Here's your weekly horoscope for September 11-17.

Between last week's full moon in Pisces and next week's new moon in Virgo, we've got a less totally nutso week astrologically. But the star of the show (literally) right now may very well be the planet of love, Venus, which has been in the dramatic, romantic fire sign Leo since August 25 but is just now setting off fireworks with two other major celestial players in the sky: taskmaster Saturn and game-changer Uranus. That's right, Venus in Leo is going to shake up your marriage this week, in mostly excellent ways.

First, on Tuesday, Venus forms a positive angle to Saturn, which is all about getting down to serious business. So, if you've been talking about buying a home or having a second child or otherwise stepping into even more committed territory with your spouse, you may very well be doing that early this week.

Then, on Sunday, the lovey-dovey planet forms another favorable angle to the planet of sudden change Uranus. This combo may set a whole new precedent in your marriage or relationship — perhaps related to you and your partner having more freedom or enjoying your individuality.

If you've been wanting your spouse to get onboard with trying that new sex toy or just sneaking in a quickie during the L.O.'s nap, you'll feel more in sync around Tuesday when Venus and Saturn get together to light up your eighth house of sexual intimacy. Make your needs clear, and there's no stopping you both from taking your physical bond to a whole new level. Ooooh yeah.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

If you and your other half have been dancing around a long-term plan (tying the knot, buying a house together, trying for baby #2), you may very well reach a turning point around Tuesday. That's when Venus forms a positive angle to taskmaster Saturn in your seventh house of partnership, and you've got a shiny green light to get in sync and seal a big deal—as a team!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

You've probably been feeling a bit overwhelmed by work and the usual grind with your kid. Totally understandable. Well, asserting yourself with higher-ups and/or your partner should be easier than usual around Tuesday when taskmaster Saturn in your sixth house of daily routine forms a positive angle to Venus. Making it clear that you are simply one woman (an amazing one, but still just one!) and need some more support will set you up for long-term success—not to mention a healthier relationship dynamic.

Leo (July 23-August 22)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

You'll want to open up to your partner about your need for more spontaneous fun, playfulness, and sexy moments around Tuesday. That's when serious Saturn in your fifth house of romance forms a positive angle to Venus in your sign, and nothing's holding you back. (Not even the fact that you might be totally sleep-deprived or cringing while trying to add a sitter to the budget.) Regardless of the outcome, you'll be glad you had the super-honest, heartfelt talk and spoke your truth.

Virgo (August 23-September 22)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

Probably when you're least expecting it, you're gonna find yourself swept up in a mind-blowing bang or sexting sesh around Sunday! That's when the game-changing planet Uranus in your eighth house of sexual intimacy forms a positive angle to Venus, and you'll be more than ready to spill your deepest desires with your partner. OK, sure, you may have to pick your toddler up from a playdate in 15 minutes, but whenever the mood strikes, for however long it does, you're gonna be in heaven.

Libra (September 23-October 22)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

You might enjoy an impromptu party or get-together with other parents in the neighborhood around Sunday. Game-changer Uranus in your seventh house of partnership will be forming a magical angle to Venus in your eleventh house of networking, throwing people into a spontaneously social mood. Although you often stress about making it all perfect, you and your bae should be able to go with the flow and have fun together RN!

Scorpio (October 23-November 21)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

Consider having an important conversation about money or going after additional responsibilities at work with your partner around Tuesday. That's when serious Saturn in your second house of income forms a positive angle to Venus. Putting your heads together (maybe switching up who's doing day care pickup or renegotiating nighttime feedings) has you feeling closer and could set you up for a long-term financial win.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

Your spouse could really knock you off your feet with an out-of-the-blue adventure around Sunday when shock-triggering Uranus in your fifth house of romance forms a positive angle to Venus. Sure, it may just be an apple-picking excursion with the offspring in tow, or dropping them off at Grandma and Grandpa's, so the two of you can grab tacos. But you'll be blissed out by the thoughtful gesture and resulting sweet, sweet chemistry boost.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

A night in has never been hotter than the one you could enjoy with your partner around Sunday. That's when game-changer Uranus in your fourth house of home life forms a positive angle to Venus in your eighth house of sexual intimacy, and not having a plan could lead to an impromptu session in the shower or in front of Netflix after the baby's down. Go get it.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

If you've been putting off an important emotional conversation with your bae, it could very well be time to tackle it head-on around Sunday. That's when shock-triggering Uranus in your third house of communication forms a positive angle to Venus in your seventh house of partnership, spurring you to handle whatever needs to be handled between the two of you. You're apt to psych yourself out, but this should be a positive move in the long-run, so go for it.

Pisces (February 19-March 20)

Caroline Wurtzel/Romper

You and your partner will do well to sit down to go over logistics with work, the kids' commitments, and everything else on your plate around Tuesday. That's when taskmaster Saturn in your tenth house of career will form a positive angle to Venus in your sixth house of daily routine, encouraging you to tackle all of the serious work in a super-diligent, meticulous way. Borrrring? Yes. But checking it off your list offers stress relief and frees you up to have more fun later in the week!
