The movements of the celestial bodies through the heavens have fascinated humankind for centuries. Ancient observers tracked the paths of the Sun, Moon, and planets through the constellations of the zodiac and developed systems to predict people’s futures according to which star sign they were born under. In modern times, this has translated into the horoscope columns that appear in magazines. Now, increasing numbers of people want to take astrology one step further, using it to unlock the complexities of their own personalities and to understand how to deal with other people in their lives.
The Secret Language of Star Signs describes the twelve signs in detail, giving the key physical traits of men, women, and children born under each one and uncovering the hidden depths of their personalities. Further chapters discuss how astrology influences each area of our lives, including our health and eating habits, our work and home lives, our relationships, and even the holidays we choose to take. Filled with fascinating facts about the mythology of the zodiac, this practical guide will equip you with everything you need to unwrap the mysteries of the star signs.

I liked this book, though for me, it is more of a reference book than something I should have sat down and read. Very good and thorough, with interesting trivia about each sign along the way. I won't be reading it all the way through again like I have, but it will make a very good reference book in future.
