You Were Born For This

From beloved astrologer, Chani Nicholas comes an essential guide for radical self-acceptance.

Your weekly horoscope is merely one crumb of astrology’s cake. In her first book You Were Born For This, Chani shows how your birth chart - a snapshot of the sky at the moment you took your first breath - reveals your unique talents, challenges, and opportunities. Fortified with this knowledge, you can live out the life you were born to. Marrying the historical traditions of astrology with a modern approach, You Were Born for This explains the key components of your birth chart in an easy-to-use, choose your own adventure style. With journal prompts, reflection questions, and affirmations personal to your astrological makeup, this book guides you along the path your chart has laid out for you.

Chani makes the wisdom of your birth chart accessible with three foundational keys:

• The First Key: Your Sun (Your Life’s Purpose)
• The Second Key: Your Moon (Your Physical and Emotional Needs)
• The Third Key: Your Ascendant and Its Ruler (Your Motivation for Life and the Steersperson of Your Ship)

Astrology is not therapy, but it is therapeutic. In a world where we are taught to look outside of ourselves for validation, You Were Born for This brings us inward to commit to ourselves and our life’s purpose.

Staff Pick: "You Were Born For This by Chani Nicholas is one of my favourite beginner astrology books we carry. It is incredibly accessible to anyone interested in astrology and gives detailed information on the three major placements in modern astrology: the sun, moon, and rising signs. Chani Nicholas uses her understanding of traditional astrological concepts to supplement and support modern ways of articulating a natal chart’s most influential placements. Starting your astrological studies with this book is sure to give you a solid foundation as you continue to learn about the cosmos." - Cedric
