While it’s one of the most joyful times in life, becoming a new parent can feel a bit like being thrown into the deep end. Any little bit of intel you can gather ahead of time can help you navigate the journey, which is why learning more about your zodiac sign might prove useful.

Astrology can help you understand both your strengths as a parent and the potential challenges you might face, says astrologer and tarot reader Maisy Bristol. That way, you can be at least somewhat prepared for what lies ahead. (You’ll never be 100% prepared; the surprises ahead are part of the fun!)

Read on to learn what the zodiac says about you as a parent, and browse hand-picked products based on your sign for you and your baby.

Aries (March 21–April 19)

One of the many reasons Aries is special is because it’s the first sign of the zodiac. If you’re an Aries, you might lean toward independence and a fiery demeanor, says astrologer KJ Atlas, which can translate to a parenting style focused on getting things done fast and being hands‑on. 

Represented by the willful ram, Aries are known for being energetic, enthusiastic, impulsive and maybe a little impatient. Consider gear that’ll help keep you active and products that keep your life with a new baby moving forward.

Taurus (April 20–May 20)

Despite being represented by the bull, Tauruses aren’t known for being unruly. Instead, they’re more likely to be focused on happiness and comfort in their environment. Tauruses love products that feel luxurious and high-end; “they might especially enjoy soft fabrics and soothing scents,” says Lauren Donelson Jones, an astrologer and intuitive marriage-family therapist. She adds that many Tauruses also love music and nature, which can make great decor additions to a nursery space.

Gemini (May 21–June 20)

Gemini parents are often seen as curious and adaptable, so versatile gear is a big plus. They’re also highly social—relationships are super important to Geminis, and they tend to be quite chatty and open. "Gemini needs to communicate and connect,” Atlas says, so consider products that’ll encourage you to engage with your baby (and your village).

Cancer (June 21–July 22)

Cancers are the nurturers of the zodiac, and are known for being emotionally intuitive, protective and major softies. You can expect to crave lots of snuggles and sweetness, but also be highly attuned to your baby’s emotional needs. “As new parents, Cancers have strong nurturing qualities and can sense what their babies need right away,” Atlas adds. That’s why you might benefit from baby products that focus on responsiveness, bonding and quiet, calm spaces. 

But keep an eye out: Cancers are also natural born givers, so be sure to tend to your own needs too.

Leo (July 23–August 22)

“Leos are born to be parents. They love love, as they are true romantics,” Bristol says. Fun fact: Leo rules the 5th House of fun and children. “So hey, they would know a thing or two!” Leos have a flair for drama and role play, so if you love to be the center of attention like Leos are known for, you might choose to stock your registry with things that’ll bring the spotlight, either to you or your baby—think eye-catching designs, stylish gear and bold tech.

Virgo (August 23–September 22)

Known for being prepared, organized and ultra efficient, “Virgos thrive on systems and putting things in order,” Atlas says. Just remember that you don’t have to be the one doing it all—that’s where multi-tasking baby gear comes in. Let the products do the work to keep things neat and tidy.

Libra (September 23–October 22)

Since Libra is represented by scales, it makes sense that Libras love harmony and balance, especially in their surroundings. “Create a calm, clean and aesthetically pleasing environment, and the rest will be smooth sailing,” says Jennifer Neville, an astrologer and tarot reader. And don’t forget that Libras are ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty, so their registry picks may prioritize form over function.

Scorpio (October 23–November 21)

Scorpios have a rep for being deep and mysterious, but they’re also adaptable, creative and highly resourceful problem solvers. “They need independence and an ability to express their individuality,” says astrologer Alyssa Polinksy. So your baby registry might be totally unique to your own sense of style, but one thing’s for sure: it’ll be full of creative and thoughtful solutions that let you stay as observant, growth-oriented and intuitive as ever.

Sagittarius (November 22–December 21)

Known for their love for spontaneity, freedom and travel, a Sagittarius parent might be eager to take their baby along for adventures. To keep both you and baby ready for anything, your registry might include lightweight gear that’s easy to pack, move and use on the go.

Capricorn (December 22–January 19)

“Capricorns are high achievers,” says Neville. “There’s no mountain this goat can’t climb. Just remember not to set your expectations too high, as not everyone thrives under pressure the way you do.” Caps are ruled by Saturn, which is the planet of authority, discipline and restriction, making Capricorn parents practical, future-oriented and focused on long-lasting gear investments.

Aquarius (January 20–February 18)

Aquarians tend to be free, innovative and a little eccentric—in a good way! “These parents have a solution for every problem,” Neville says. And when tech can help solve the issue, even better. One of the best qualities an Aquarius can pass on to their baby is individuality, Neville adds. “As a rebel of the zodiac, you are here to teach your young one not to conform to the status quo, and to help them develop their own personal uniqueness.” 

They also really value community, with a strong humanitarian streak that embodies the saying “it takes a village” (and may have a penchant for eco-friendly and ethically-conscious products).

Pisces (February 19–March 20)

“Pisces are extremely intuitive and creative,” Polinsky says, noting that they may gravitate toward the arts to express themselves. For Pisces parents, artistic types of play might be a favorite way to bond with your baby, and your gentle, loving nature may lead you to fill your registry with the dreamiest, coziest gear. “They’re sure to make their baby’s life dreamy and fantastical with music, books, fort building and fantasy experiences that light them up just as much as their tot,” Atlas says.
