“You Were Born for This” is good for the newbie astrology student or curious person seeking a new path to contentment and self-acceptance. There’s one problem. If you don’t know EXACTLY when you were born - as in day, hour, minute, second and where it took place, it’s not possible to start this process with the best possible natal chart. Nichols advises that there are things that can be done but they all require hiring an astrologer to assist in the process and that it will be an approximation.

Chani Nichols shares a bit about her life along the way in this friendly book and it’s easy to see why she’s got a million followers/subscribers to her podcast. Her style is warm, approachable and easy to understand, offering keys to the sun, moon and planets as ways to discover new information or a new direction for your life. She invites the reader to her website very early in the book and suggests it to be used in tandem.

If you’re well versed in astrology, this book won’t be teaching you too much that’s new but for those that know their exact birth date, (or don’t care about it), you might be born for this 📚

 Chani makes astrology approachable, practical, & applicable. Most of the book is "choose your own adventure" & skip ahead to the sections that apply to your chart. I knew my chart well before I started the book. I have a considerably better understanding of it now. And a better understanding of the aspects & how they work. Quick & easy read. Enjoyable for the whole family.

Chani has a way of appealing to both beginners and more advanced astrologers alike - perhaps because she has wrapped her work and this book with the very radical acceptance she teaches. I love the way this book is laid out, how the affirmations reinforce the section you just read pertaining to an aspect of your chart and the reflection questions give you the opportunity to delve deeper into your understanding. Reading this book has not only helped me personally, but it also helped me have more loving acceptance of my family. Knowing what drives them and where they need to shine allows me to create space for them to be who they are instead of forcing them into a different mold. Knowing my own strengths and challenges based on my chart makes the situation I’m facing more manageable. Thank you Chani for putting some of your work into a book format that is accessible to all and framing it with such love and kindness.
