I've read it, but that this just the first step of this book. Reading it is just the key to opening the door; you have to decide to push it open and discover what's on the other side.

Though I feel like I have a good grip on the main aspects focused on in Nicholas's book (sun sign, moon sign, ascendant), what I most appreciated was how she always brings everything back to you as the reader. It isn't prescriptive, it's about your personal experience and how you can use those insights about yourself to become a better you. This is definitely more of an intro-to-astrology book, but I appreciated Nicholas's unique insights, and I feel like I understand my chart better than I have before.

Astrology is kind of misunderstood. It's not just woo-woo future predictions about your love life that you can read in Cosmo. It is based on much more than that. But it's also not a cure-all that will just tell you the answers about how to live and who to be. It's more about the process of learning to look at yourself in a different way. What you decide to do with that information is up to you.

I love that Nicholas leaves room for further exploration and discovery. I hope she writes another book on the next steps in understanding your chart!
