Essential for any astrology student's library, December 5, 2002

A thorough understanding of the sun signs seems to be an essential step for anybody seriously studying astrology. Linda Goodman has done an outstanding job describing them in their purest forms.

Goodman's writing style reflects men's and women's roles as they were in 1968, when the book was written. Some seem to find this offensive; I find it refreshing.

The wonderful thing about understanding the sun signs is that you can apply that knowledge in so many ways. I'm having a lot of fun "people watching," trying to figure out what a person's sign is based on their behavior. A knowledge of the sun signs can also be used to help understand the planets that rule the signs, and also to the houses.

Well worth the money even if you are not an astrology student and just want to figure out your spouse or kids!

Linda Goodman's Sun Signs, October 10, 2002

I have purchased several copies of this book over the past few years, but every time I loan it to someone because I want them to read a certain part, amazingly they never return it. Then I have to buy another copy!

Linda Goodman has an amazing talent for explaining astrology in a humorous way in which we can all relate and understand. I refer to this book a lot when I'm trying to "figure someone out". I personally have a library of Astrology books, but this is the one I most often refer to, followed in a close second by Linda Goodman's "Love Signs", and a puple book entitled "The only astrology book you'll ever need".

For anyone who is interested in astrology, even if they don't know a lot about it, this is a good book to start with!
