Customer Reviews

I have worn out my original copy and just bought three more!

This is the most acurate astrological book I have found on relationships. I have just purchased a copy for each of my children because they kept taking mine. It is a lot different from the other books out there on the subject. It has been amazingly insightful. I would highly recommend this book.

Absolutely AMAZING book !

This is THE most useful astrology book I ever purchased - bar none. What Carolyn Reynolds does is take all 12 zodiac signs and develop 'love' profiles (roughly a page for each) for both and men using the sun and moon signs in combination - 144 (12 x 12) combinations for both men and women. In the last decade or so, when I was single, I dragged this book all over the world. Everytime I met someone who was interested, I asked them to tell me their date and time of birth and we looked them (and their significant others) up. I would guess I did this hundreds of times for people in the US, Europe, Russia, China and South America. Out of all those times and with everyone I knew in my own circle, I would say I found 3 people for whom it was inaccurate - and one of those people I suspected had gone thru a VERY traumatic childhood. It was so good I used it to vet my lovelife :) and it ended up working quite well, as I have a great wife and two little rugrats. I don't have my original copy any more because it got so beat up it fell apart, and besides I have who I want now - so no more searching. Before I got married I was in a not so great relationship and that book just NAILED the personality issues I was having with that person - really made things a lot clearer. I am no professional astrologer, I am just a person who became fascinated with the predictive powers of astrology in regards to human personality. I would consider this one of the 5 most important/useful books I ever purchased and I am a bit amused / amazed that this book got ANY negative reviews - so I thought I would put my 2 cents up in response. If you have any kind of intelligent, open mind, this is an awesome book - don't waste a chance to check it out.

Just heard the author on the radio

Hey Nathan, lighten up. I just heard the author on the radio and she was right on. Did you know how to look up the dates right in the back of the book? I have read both her books and they were very accurate for me. My friends and I have all read this one together and it worked for us. But, you do need to have a sense of humor. It is written tongue in cheek.

What fun!

I looked up the personality profiles of everyone I know. I found it accurate and insightful. This book helps me get an idea of what my dates really have on their minds. I loved it!

Just a guy who can't figure women

I'm just a guy trying to get some insights to the women in my life. I ran across this book and was amazed at the personality descriptions. I laughed out loud a few times at the astrological profiles of some of my ex's and now I understand things a little better. I love this book! I think I stand a chance in the dating game after all.
