Customer Reviews

Insightful, Useful, Intelligent

Lucidly written with many charming and evocative illustrations throughout. A must have for the astrological library of professionals and beginners alike.

Fascinating, original, informative

There is so little innocence, passion and authenticity out there. This book has it all. I dare anyone who picks it up not to find something insightful and delightful in it. The illustrations are so lovingly drawn and somehow succeed in relating the ideas contained in the book better than photographs ever could. The reader gets a real sense of how astrological placements reflect how we look and use our bodies. I found this, along with Hill's book on medical astrology especially useful in furthering my understanding and appreciation of how the chart describes face and body types. I recommend this book highly, it's a real gem.

The Astrological Body Types

This is an outstanding title. Frankly, just nothing quite like it anywhere. I was stunned by the second reviewer's claim that this is a "comb bound" book. I've both editions, and they are quite attractive paperbacks! This same reviewer reports the drawings all look alike. Au Contraire. Scores of amusing drawings fill this book, depicting the classic sign,planetary,element and mode types (wow!) in better detail than I've seen anywhere, except perhaps by Duff (who stuck to signs only). Hill's research addendum is incredible, and the book is useful, of significant scholarly depth, and funny too.

Excellent book!

I have owned and treasured this book for many years now, and despite the negative comment by the other reader who left a review, I think this book is a gem. There are very few books out there like this. Most people will tell you that you either look like your Sun Sign or Ascendant, but this is not always the case, which is why this book is sorely needed to dispell such myths.(Also, the other reader's claim that all of the people "look alike" in the book, is hardly the case.)I recommend this book to all people interested in astrology; it is also quite necessary for any student of astrology.
