    Highly Recommended- you need to read this!

    When I first read [The Illustrated Signs and Symbols Sourcebook], I found out more about some of the signs and symbols in daily life and literature than I knew, and even learned a few things about my astrological sign, along with those of my family and friends. The information was easy to find and was well researched, and it's almsot like a encyclopedia that I can refer to again and again! :)
