Featured Reviews
What's Your Sign?: A Guide to Astrology for the Cosmically Curious from Sanctuary Astrology is a great primer for beginner astro-enthusiasts or a great refresher for those more practiced. I loved the deep dive into the planets and signs. I've never read an astrology book with my ears before, so it was fun to realize that I enjoyed that. I took a lot of notes and had a fun time reigniting my passion for astrology. Thanks to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for the free audiobook ARC in exchange for my honest review.
Can I say how much I love astrology? As some of you have probably realized by now, I pick up hobbies and fall in love with them or grow bored with them. Astrology is one of those things I decided last year to dive into when I found a GIANT book at a local metaphysical store. Now, I haven't read that book (yet), but I've been deep-diving into some smaller books. So when I saw What's Your Sign up on Netgalley as an audiobook, I knew I needed to buy the book. My lovely cousin recommended the Sanctuary app when I was in Utah visiting family, so when I saw that the minds behind the Sanctuary App wrote this book, I jumped at the chance to read it.
What's Your Sign is one of those astrology books that I would recommend to anyone that wants to get a basic yet still in-depth rundown on astrology. This book walks you through the planets, the houses, transits, and the signs. In addition, this book broke down the more complex concepts and explained them in a way that I could understand.
The audiobook's narration was pretty good, but I will say, I think you should buy the physical/digital book instead or in addition. I found myself wanting to highlight sections, take notes, and refer to past sections, which is hard to do when reading an audiobook.
All in all, I really enjoyed this book. I know the Scorpio section was pretty dead-on when it came to me and the Virgo Moon & Cancer Rising section was also pretty accurate. So if you're interested in astrology, this might be the perfect book for you!
You don’t have to be famous to dance with the stars—you just need a healthy dose of cosmic curiosity.
So, I am one of these people who has a healthy dose of cosmic curiosity. Ever since I was a teenager, and realised that the moon definitely had control over my moods, I have read various books learning more about my star sign and what traits it determined in my life and personality.
I was a bit sceptical about this book at first with it being in audio version, a hard copy of the book would be really good so you could study your own sign in more details or skip through the chapters you are more interested in. The narrator did mention the audio came with a PDF but there wasn't one downloadable from Netgalley. She was really enjoyable to listen to, and made the facts interesting and fun, rather than boring. That being said, this works really well and the Sanctuary app that you can download alongside it helps you understand in more details and shows you your birth chart and gives more information about your star and for free and even speak to astrolgers if you desire.
This book guides beginners and enthusiasts alike through the signs, planets, and basics of astrology, helping you understand why not every Leo is the same. It is very information and I think a printer copy would be a great addition to anyones collection on the subject.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
I enjoyed this book and feel like the information was laid out in a way that was very easy to follow even though the subject itself can get very confusing. The narrator was lively and read in a way that can easily hold the listeners attention. I think this audiobook is a great place to start if someone has interest in learning about Astrology, but doesn't know where to start. I tried out the app that the book suggests and did not like it, but it did not take away from the enjoyment of the book itself.
I love books about astrology and I am proud to add this to my collection. What's Your Sign? by Sanctuary Astrology is an amazing guide to understanding astrology. Experts and beginners alike can find something to learn in this book. It was interesting to learn about the different zodiac signs and their meanings. From understanding your planets and signs and how they impact your chart, this book covers so much of the complexities surrounding astrology. I really loved the illustrations in the book, and thought there was so much useful information for beginners and experts alike.
As a follower of Sanctuary on Instagram, seeing that this book is from them was an immediate draw for me. I had an idea what I’d be getting into with this book and it didn’t disappoint.
I’d read a few other reviews and I will say - if you’re not a believer in astrology, this won’t convert you. It just a basic guide for those that are curious about astrology and how it works. It goes over the planets and the signs in a short and easy to grasp fashion. There’s nothing about it that’s meant to convince anyone of the validity of astrology, it’s just for those that are curious - as the title says.
I received the audiobook from NetGalley (thank you!) and my comments on that are pretty standard. The narrator uses an upbeat tone of voice and keeps the content fun and light while giving out the information included in this book.
Overall I’m gonna give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. As long as you take this book for what it is, it’s great!
What *is* your sign, though? I knew I was a Gemini, but I had no idea about my moon sign, rising sign, and what the ruling planets of my various houses meant. Shoutout to this short, concise book that explains the basics of your star chart and has an app that can help you understand these things, provide solid horoscopes, and connects you with qualified astrologers to learn more.
There are several ways to use this book. You can go straight through the introduction, breakdown of what everything means, and more info about each sign. You can skip straight to your sign and only listen to that, or you can jump around as different things interest you to learn more about each part.
I also downloaded the app, and they are still developing it, but the basics are there for more understanding, and that helped me as the book explained each part and what it meant. I already have a better handle on my chart than I ever did before, and this book was a great jumping off point to dig even deeper. I recommend it for the compelte novice and or the casually interested party. You’re bound to learn something cool about yourself.
What’s Your Sign? is an informative and delightful audiobook that covers a great deal of information about astrology. The book is written to be used with the app Sanctuary if desired, but it is not necessary or required to do so. I was curious, so I downloaded the app and found it useful in learning more about my chart. I appreciated that this book was designed to appeal to everyone- for people who intended to read the whole thing front to back or those who are only interested in what applies to them. What’s Your Sign has a good mix of fun details (such as Zodiac Bingo Board) and ways for people to pursue learning the more intricate details of their chart. The writing is accessible for astrology students of all levels. The audiobook narrator was cheerful and full of energy. I learned a lot about my chart and enjoyed the audiobook experience. I would recommend this book for astrology enthusiasts and beginners. What’s Your Sign? is available on February 15, 2022. Thank you to Sanctuary Astrology, Andrews McMeel Audio, and Netgalley for a free audiobook in exchange for an honest review.
For publisher: My review will be posted on the publication date and I will publish it on Instagram, Goodreads, Amazon, Storygraph, and Barnes & Noble etc

This book was fun and very entertaining, while still being informative. It really helped me to understand the different parts that make up a birth chart in astrology (as well as the different types of astrology in the world, and the uses that people usually consult their star charts for).
I've been super into astrology lately and learning more about it. So this was definetly very imformative. The audiobook listening experience was enjoyable. Though I feel I would benefit from getting a phyiscal copy; I'll be getting one when it comes out.
As for the content, this is perfect for beginners getting into astrology and understanding the basics. It discusses the personal planets (sun, moon, ascendent, mercury, mars and venus) and the outer planets (jupitier, uranus, neptune and pluto). This also devles into the twelve houses and what they represent.
Overall, it was a great read and would highly recommend it for those wanting to learn the basics about astrology.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an audio-arc in exchange for an honest review.
This is a good introduction to astrology, and expands on more than just your sun sign (though of course that is in there as well) . While the audiobook is good, I think a hard copy of this book will be better for most people, so they can treat it more as a reference book. While not a long book, you will definitely want to highlight, underline, or come back to certain sections as you expand your knowledge on Astrology.
This is a great addition to your spiritual shelf in your home library. It would also make a great birthday gift for any friends and family members who are interested in astrology and birth charts.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for my advanced copy in exchange for a review.
What’s your sign by sanctuary astrology. If you are wanting to learn about your birth chart and the different aspects of your astrology. This is the book you need. This is done by the application sanctuary. You can do your birth chart. You will need the time and place of your birth. Learn what the houses the moon and sun and different positions mean with this book coming out in February
Pro tip: If you’re new to astrology, download the Sanctuary app before reading this book. And if you’re not new to astrology like me, this isn’t geared to you. Unless you’re obsessed with the Sanctuary app like me and it’s more of a want ✨
Another note: This book isn’t for astrology doubters but—like the subtitle says—for the cosmically curious.
This book is full of information you can Google—or read more about in the Sanctuary app, with information tailored to your natal chart. Yet it’s a handy reference nonetheless.
I have loved the Sanctuary app for a while now because of its digestible content and I’m so glad they came out with a book to give beginners and advanced users alike more detail on how to get into astrology beyond that surface sun sign! While audio is available, I would highly recommend it as a companion to the kindle or physical copy. It’s necessary! I will be referring back to this one frequently. Read this to learn more about yourself, especially if you think your horoscope or sun sign doesn’t match you. I find this all so fascinating.
