You Were Born for This: Astrology for Radical Self-Acceptance
Description
In this New York Times Best Seller, Chani Nicholas shows you how your birth chart reveals your unique life path, purpose, gifts, challenges, and opportunities. Marrying the historic traditions of astrology with a modern approach, You Were Born for This explains the key components of your birth chart — i.e., your Sun (your life’s purpose), your Moon (your physical and emotional needs), and your ascendant and its ruler (your motivation for living life and the steersperson of your ship) — in an easy-to-use, choose-your-own-adventure style. Through journal prompts, reflection questions, and affirmations personal to your astrological makeup, it guides you along the path your chart has laid out for you so that you can live the life you were born to.

What people are saying
Chani and team, are you aware of how much you have been doing for the people? I’m in awe of the effects of your work in my own life, and I have no doubt that you put just as much (if not even more) effort into these guides as any other materials/tools you’ve been making available. Thank you for your being and your doing; we feel the LOVE 💗.

My best friend gifted me this deck for Chanukah. The magic is woven into the cards making them feel alive, authentic, and vibrant. Thank you to all who took part in the making of my deck. Special thanks to Chani, who lifts us up and wraps us in a warm blanket.

For years, I have transcribed various teachings from CHANI into my planner. Doing so helps me feel prepared and centered for the upcoming week (or year, in the case of the year-ahead reading, which I have done before). I love the app, but I don’t feel like I am able to hold on to the information unless I take notes in my planner. This planner comes at the perfect time for me. This past year, I have struggled to find time for that initial note-taking planner time because I have little kids. It feels like the most practical part of the work has been done for me, so I can use my precious time to jump right in and do the deeper work. The stickers are cute af. It’s perfect.

I received You Were Born for This and my Astro clan of 2024; I can barely stand it. I’m so excited to dig in and dig deep. There’s stickers and so much insight. I’m bubbling with joy inside. Over the last couple of weeks, it has been so deep and full of enlightened sentiment for me. Going through my Chiron return would’ve been so much more difficult if the CHANI app wasn’t in place in my life. It’s giving me a deeper understanding of how to confront, shed, and move through difficult situations, so thank you. It’s a blessing to have you here on planet Earth. Big hug.

I was gifted this unique gift for 2022. It was the best year guide that I could have asked for. Honestly, it gave me such great insight and helped me be present and sit with everything I was learning. Journal questions and affirmations have helped me tremendously. Thank you to everyone who put so much time and effort into this gift. I just purchased 2023 and it will be my yearly ritual for myself.

My mom got me this calendar as a Christmas gift because she knows how much I love Astrology and Chani. But this calendar is not just great for staying organized and planning; it’s become a favorite part of my morning routine — it’s FUN. I get to learn about my own astrological placements and upcoming astrology forecasts. I feel very excited and extra ready for this year!

My original planner had a printing error, but the CHANI team replaced it super fast. The colors and artwork are wonderful, as all things CHANI are. Currently working on filling in my pages and inputting my important details from the 2023 guidebook. Looking forward to a year of living and loving on this planner. 💕
