Customer Reviews

Entertaining, but quite spot-on in accuracy

I bought one copy for myself, then lost it to my mother the next day; she absconded with it, and what could I say? :-) It *was* Mother's Day. That said, I ordered a few more for myself and others. While I generally don't follow astrology, it's entertaining to read on occasion. This book is quite good at pegging people. My family and friends and I have had a blast reading through it, regarding ours and others' profiles. I would recommend this to anyone, for sure, even for entertainment purposes only.

Great Book

Fast delivery and in great shape. The book contents have kept my wife reading for hours. Seems to be pretty accurate and a fun read.

Great Book

If you are interested in Chinese Astrology, I recommend this book. It gives you a ton of info about all the the zodiac signs, including a detailed description of the history and legend behind Chinese Astrology and the zodiac calendar. I personally found out, that I wasn't really a snake due to the starting and end dates of the year I was born. I'm actually a dragon. It's more accurate for me than a snake. Very, very good book.

This is SOOOOOOO' cool!

I am really glad I got this one! If you're interested in finding out about "YOU", then this is just what you want! I always thought that with a January birthday in 1977...I was born in the year of the "Snake"; surprisingly, I was wrong. The changing of signs actually take place during the Chinese New Year which happens several weeks after the normal Jan-Dec calendar year begins! Many Chinese Zodiac recsources contain this error! I was born in the year of the "Dragon"...and now the descriptions are matching up with my characteristics. I was really amazed with the details shared... really accurate or unreal coincidence!
