About the author
Christopher Renstrom is the author of two astrology guides on the shopfront's shelves, Rise and Shine: An Astrological Guide to How You Show Up in the World (Tarcher, 2022) and The Cosmic Calendar: Using Astrology to Get in Sync with Your Best Life (Tarcher, 2020). Both books work from the rising sign and the everyday calendar rather than from natal charts alone, aiming to make astrology practical for readers navigating work, relationships and daily rhythms. Rise and Shine focuses on the face a person presents to the world, the persona built around the ascendant, while The Cosmic Calendar reads the year's astrological transits as a timing tool for decisions and habits. Renstrom writes for a general audience already curious about astrology rather than for specialists, moving past the shorthand of memes and sun-sign columns toward a more systematic use of the discipline. Readers drawn to accessible, calendar-based astrological guidance will find both titles suited to regular use.
