Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

“It's unusual for a beginner's astrology book to contain anything that might make a professional astrologer sit up and take notice but Joanna's elegant guide to being your own astrologer does just that. […] Even with just a downloaded chart from the internet and no prior knowledge, the reader will have hours of fun with this book and learn many important new insights into their life.” Review of Be Your Own Astrologer, Cygnus Community

Winner of Best Moonology Book in the Soul & Spirit magazine Spiritual Book Awards

Lift astrology out of the sun-sign columns, interpret your birth chart and discover the true meaning of the stars and planets, and their influence on your personality.

Most people know their sun sign and the broad character traits that go with it: Leos are leaders, Scorpios are secretive and Cancerians are sensitive. However, there is much more to astrology than this broad brushstroke approach, and in Be Your Own Astrologer, best-selling astrologer and tarot reader Joanna Watters gives you the tools you need to gain a deeper understanding of your sign and insights into hidden aspects of your personality. Joanna goes beyond the sun signs to look at the importance and influence of every planet’s position in your birth chart. She will guide you, step by step, on your personal astrological journey and you will soon be able to interpret your own natal chart.
