Handy Guide; Great Value; Nicely done
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I bought this beautifully illustrated and chunky book because of the WIDE variety of information it contains. It contains definitions and goes beyond to give you an overall basic understanding of Astrology and the different aspects of it. If you are looking for a complete guide, that goes into deep detail about all of the aspects pertaining, then this is not the book you're looking for. For me, this is a great reference guide to astrology. Here's some of what I like about this book: I like the amount of information given for each sign. For example, you get a profile according to: Appearance, Personality, Mind, Emotions, Strengths, Weaknesses, Shadow, Karma, Likes/Dislikes, Money, As a parent/As a child, Career, Leisure, and Gift ideas. (There is a small paragraph for each subject.) I don't follow astrology as closely now as I did when I first became interested, so this book is extremely helpful for me if I know there's a certain aspect going on, and I need to look it up quickly to get a general idea of what's going on. (like...Oh! okay, now I remember what that's about!) Other subjects covered are: Elements Qualities and Polarities The Planets The Houses and Angles ( & aspect patterns) The Aspects The Unfolding Chart How to interpret a chart Compatability Chart (what type of lover each sign is) I think this is a great guide for anyone interested in astrology. If there is a certain area you want more information on, then there are plenty of books you can find that will explain the specifics in much more detail. To get a general overview of how it all works, this is a great book for that. It's nicely organized.
Yet another in the "Bible" series to love!

With 3 kids and a full-time job to work around, every minute saved counts! The "Bible" series has been a wonderful addition to my personal pagan library. I have other books that are more in depth that I could never live without ("The Only Astrology Book You'll Ever Need" for example) but the quick-find layout of these books has proven to be invaluable as well.
Good book

This is a very informative book i'm not particualy knowledgable on the subject and am not sure if there are other books that may be more informative. This is definetly a good choice for those who are just interested and maybe just curious on how to understand other people and yourself better.
