Books - Linda Goodman's Sun Signs
|
Rating:  -
I love this book. In fact, this may be Linda's seminal work on astrology. This book is easy to read, and easy to put down. Everyone you will ever meet is analyzed using "sun sign astrology" (e.g. all we are concerning ourselves with here are the generalities applicable to any of the twelve basic personality types assigned by month of birth). She takes each astrological sign and shows how that sign (or person) sees the world in different situations. Father, mother, sister, son: you are not getting a simple overview of the astrological influence on personality, but a fun to read examination of the sun-sign influenced personality in life's situations, so that you can better understand what to expect in ANY situation that person may be found in.
Linda understands the limitations of "sun sign astrology" in that it only goes so far, much like the "Men are from Mars and women are from some other planet" psychology that was popular in the 1980's. While you cannot completely base your views of humanity on such sweeping generalizations, Linda accepts this in this book and writes in a style that allows for variations of personality type, circumstance, and past events that help shape personality. Her writing style is upbeat and engaging, making this a very fun book indeed. Personality analysis through astrology can be an extremely complex and messy affair when you dig too deeply into the mass of information available in the minutiae accessible with a little study*. Linda floats above all of that by presenting in clear, concise terms how your employee, husband, brother (et al.) will generally react when you .
This book is a great reference tool, an one that should be used often with anyone you have to deal with on a regular basis, and most especially BEFORE you hand over your wallet - or your heart - to them. This book doesn't pretend to have all of the answers. It guides you through several of the recurring situations life will present to you, and offers you fun advice that you can choose to acknowledge or ignore, but at least you go into any situation armed with positive knowledge. This is a book you will spot-read over and again, and each time it will bring new insights into "why so and so did this or that."
[* HIGHLY recommended books for serious astrological study include A.T. Mann's "The Round Art: The Astrology of Time and Space" - which is simply one of the BEST mass-market books on Astrology ever. Get the hardcover. Also, the classic: Llewellyn's New A To Z Horoscope Maker & Interpreter: A Comprehensive Self-Study Course. Llewellyn George is a god. This book founded an empire. If you can actually get through it and really understand the wealth of information contained, you will be well on your way to being a great astrologer.]
But buy Linda's books! They are loads of fun, quick and easy to read, and give you a LOT of easily accessible information you can use to make your life more enjoyable.

I had this product in about 7 years ago and it really helped grab a hold of my boyfriend and his attributes. It helped me understand him a little better and realize why he does the things he does. We are married now and I think this book helped me decide how compatible we are together. It's a fun book to read and it has alot of other interesting topics. I am also a mother now and can understand myself and my children. As a parent, help is welcome. This book also helped me to understand my boss and we work well together. Much better, I think, since I've read this book. If anything it helps to improve relationships, not harm them.

This is an excellent book for the individual who is not necessarily familiar with astrology. It provides entertaining and surprisingly accurate descriptions of personalities based on the individual's sun sign. It is perfect for the person who has friends that ask questions such as "I'm and Aries. What am I supposed to be like?" With this book in hand, you can tell them - in a humourous, unoffensive way.

This was one of my favorite books when it was first published decades ago. Now that I have a grandson and have seen how perfectly Goodman describes the little guy, I gave a copy to my daughter-in-law. It is entertaining and easy to read in bits and pieces and,astonishingly so,right on the money!
