You Were NOT Born For This
"You Were Born for This" is an excellent book for those who identify solely as Geminis or Capricorns and are ready to move beyond that. It’s perfect for individuals eager to deepen their self-understanding by delving into topics like the Sun in Houses, the Moon in Signs and Houses, and the Ascendant along with its ruler.
The book is written by Chani Nicholas, a student of Demetra George, who pioneered the introduction of Hellenistic astrology to the Western world. Indeed, "You Were Born for This" builds upon certain concepts that Demetra George explored in her earlier work, "Astrology and the Authentic Self."
Chani Nicholas’s book, by focusing solely on the Sun, Moon, and Ascendant, covers about 10% of Hellenistic astrology. When you consider that Hellenistic astrology itself constitutes roughly 10% of Vedic astrology, it becomes clear that "You Were Born for This" is tailored to beginners.
However, there are two points where we differ:
The book advocates for the universal use of the Tropical zodiac and the Whole House system, following the recommendations of Demetra George and Hellenistic astrology.
The book posits that the Sun indicates an individual’s life purpose.
On the first point, we consistently stress that birth chart settings, such as the zodiac and house system, are highly individual. For some people, the Tropical zodiac is correct, while for others, the Sidereal zodiac offers a more precise reflection of their reality. That’s why, to deliver the most accurate readings—our top priority—we offer clients our birth chart accuracy worksheet to help them determine what works best for them. You can access it separately here, via an annual subscription, or by enrolling in our course.
Regarding the second point, in our experience, the purpose of life is to use our talents to benefit others. In what you are good at, be useful to others. Gaining recognition for our efforts brings a sense of fulfillment, and witnessing the positive impact of our talents on those we serve can deepen our sense of purpose and satisfaction
The strongest planets in your birth chart indicated your talents—innate tendencies or natural gifts that enable you to excel in specific activities or skills. These talents are the abilities or tasks that feel effortless to you, yet prove difficult for others. Examine your most powerful planets by considering their placements and the houses they govern—that’s where your talents lie.
In contrast to 'You Were Born for This,' we have recently published a book titled 'You Were NOT Born for This,' which is available here at a 'Pay What You Want' price.
