Linda Goodman's Sun Signs

Great Book

This book does a really good job of giving a complete description of every sun sign. With every sign I always was smiling because I was thinking of how true it was for the people that I knew with that sign. While most books give ways of telling someone's sun sign, no other book was even in same league as this one. Definitely a must read for anyone who is into astrology and would like to learn about all of the sun signs more in depth.

The Ultimate Astrology Guide!

Although this book was written quite a few years ago, Linda Goodman is still regarded as one of the all-time great astrologers. Her friendly, conversational style of writing makes the book easy for beginners to use, and entertaining for everyone. It includes sections such as (Sun Sign) Male, Female, Parent, Child, Boss, etc. This allows readers to astro-analyze their co-workers, dates, etc., without being too obvious! I have personally purchased at least ten of these as gifts for friends (who loved them!) The book contains fun examples, and specific details about each sign. It is not as generalized as most sun sign guides, and also contains tips on how to please each sign. I would also recommend Linda Goodman's book Love Signs, which has totally different information. This book specifically pairs each sign with another, and gives tips on how to make the relationship work. Linda Goodman was an astrology genius!

Favorite astrology book

My copy is so worn out from use, because I refer to it all the time and have lent it out on multiple occasions. It breaks each sign down like this (I'll use libra for reference here): Libra, Libra man, libra woman, libra child, libra boss and libra employee. Definately a good astrology book to have on your shelf if you are a novice, expert or just curious.

Fun & surprisingly accurate.

I had this book years ago, and it seems that whenever I'd let someone borrow it I had a hard time getting it back because it was so good. It was a great dating tool, and was almost 80% accurate. This time I want it so I could read up on my soon to be Taurus child. So glad I found it again. This time I'll keep it to myself:)

Excellent intro

If you are just beginning to explore the world of astrology, this is the book for you. She does a fantastic job of explaining each of the signs simply enough but beyond the "pop" type astrology you find in other books. This book (and all of her books) is for the person who wants to start to dig beyond the horoscope and what you read about your sign online.

Good Astrological read.

It was very informative. It went way beyond the 2 paragraphs that most books have. It does not fact in the other signs that you could have such as moon signs. However, it does provided examples of people that have that sun sign and makes the sun signs clear.

A must have!!!

A must have for every library. Linda Goodman is thoroughly entertaining and a really good astrologer.

LIFE-LONG ADVICE

I've been carrying my original copy around, and I still have it, for over 30-years. Its the most accurate astrology book ever written. Linda takes the complicated and transforms it into simplicity ... sheer genius and a MUST for a your permanent library ... Life-changing!!!

Hits the nail on the head.........

First read this book a few years ago and was amazed how highly accurate her personality descriptions were. Very enlightning and a recommended read. I let my sister borrow this after I read it, never got it back. I just purchased my second copy along with Love Signs and Relationship Signs, can't wait to get them all!

GREATEST ASTONISHMENT

I was`nt that interseted in reading but I assure u once u merge up with a LINDA GOODMAN u won`t feel like keeping it down.It has indeed turned as one of my best pals helping me judge a lot of people

dead-on with her descriptive charachteristics

I read this book at least twenty years ago and still remember how true-to-life her descriptions of each sign were. Read it & you will see.

Absolutely on point.

I read to my co-workers their sign and everyone just seems so amazed. It hits everyone on the nose. I love her books. A must buy. Thank you Linda Goodman for your knowledge in astrology.

extremely helpful

i have been reading this book since 5 years.now i am 20.it made life easier for me.it made me discover myself.its my best friend and my family members think i am crazy about it.i carry it everywhere i go.it might seem to be exaggerating.but its so true that i never parted with it.

Entertaining read for anyone who has never studied

Linda Goodman makes for an entertaining read with her unique brand of writing. However, I find as many misses as hits with this book. For myself, Virgo sun, Leo rising and Pisces moon, not very accurate. While other signs she hit the nail on the head. An interesting introduction to astrology, but definately not a reference book as definitions are colored by her own personality.

A Book That Stands The Test Of Time

My mom was reading this book when I was a little kid and she still has the one she bought then. I have turned to it from time to time when I have met new people and found it to be very accurate. I am not into astrology, which is why I like this book. I don't feel like I am reading about sun signs, but more like i am learning about people and their personalties. I have tested the information she offers and found that for the most part what she is writing is true as related to personalities. It is a great book.

Entertaining, but not totally accurate...

This is a good book -- especially for newcomers to the world of astrology and people who's charts don't seem to be as contradictory as mine and many others (I am a Virgo {on the cusp of Libra} with Leo Rising and Libra as my moon sign). It's very entertaining, and of course Sun Signs can provide a lot of insight into who a person is, but I would definitely reccomend that anyone who reads this book should also educate themselves with information about Ascendants (Rising Signs) and Moon Signs.

Stands the test of time

I have had this book since it was first printed and I continue to use it today. I recently started a new job and as soon as I learned my new bosses birthdate (a Gemini), I consulted this book. She has such an entertaining way of writing.

THE BEST!

This is the best book I have ever read. Linda Goodman amazes me with everything she says in here...it is all so true. She is the true genius of astrology...I am a leo with a virgo acendant and like she says, when you blend those together you get a better idea of my personality. I read this book everyday and never get sick of reading it. If you are into astrology and want to know more, buy this book! She is very good at explaining things and the book is entertaining at the same time

Best Astrology book I've ever read.

In this Scorpio's opinion there has never been a better astrology book written, for discriptive insites into all the signs of the Zodiac. Linda's book however, is not about how to chart the stars, which I have found is complicated anyway, but it is about exploring different sun sign personalities in an indepth and fun way. There is more depth to her discriptions than this Scorpio has found in any other astology book. I recommend this book to anyone thirsty for details about friends, bosses, lovers, children, and of course themselves.

Great gift idea, spread the knowledge.

People keep saying that her work is 'general' and I believe they are wrong. General is the horoscopes you find on the internet, or in the back of a magazine. I have found her work to be to the point, completely accurate, amazing. It has answered many questions for me. As a scorpio, I always wondered why I could not communicate what I feel very well, and she has answered my question 'why me?' I've read this book from cover to cover, and it explained my relationship with not only my fiancee, but also my mother, my old roomate(aries-enough said) and so on... I recommend giving this book to friends as gifts!
