Alice has expertly written a book *accessible* to beginner and intermediate astrologers, using approachable language that doesn't overcomplicate or mystify the subject of astrology
As an astrologer myself, I am often asked 'what books I recommend' for someone starting out in astrology or looking to delve deeper. I'm usually at a loss for words. While I've read much of the astrology literature, I almost feel 'bad' recommending a stuffy or complex textbook to a friend. Reading astrology content should be enjoyable!
Trust Your Timing makes astrology feel so straightforward, while tackling beginner/intermediate subjects from a refreshing angle. Alice explains each concept right on the nose, no beating around the bush with flowery language. You can't feel confused or lost while reading this book — I promise
The hardest thing to explain in astrology is WHAT is relevant and important to you, and this book helps cut through all the chaos of astrology tools and techniques
I'm going through some major romantic transits this year – 2026, and this book found me at the perfect time. The last chapters about timing were phenomenal and renewed my love for birth chart readings too
This was really good, it’s almost like a workbook. I was very confused by the end when talking about transits and I feel like that’s the reason I wanted this book so that was a little frustrating but it could have just been the amount of information was confusing. Also got very frustrated/depressed that Saturn won’t be entering my 7th house until 2041…….. lol def a book you have to go back to and re-read and take in, you won’t get it after 1 read I’m still lost but not as lost as when I started. Thank you Alice!
This book opened my eyes, literally. It made me understand a lot of things about me and, also, about other people. It gave me literally hope about myself and my future and it nurtured more and more the interest I've already had in astrology leading to the decision to start studying it quite seriously. As a novice I've really appreciated the book and since it is written really easily I think I'll go back to it a lot during my studies... Thanks Alice!
I finished this a while ago. Can’t fully remember what I thought. Great general info. Mostly well laid out. Could have been more developed/ informative on specifics. The writing was just a bit too informal for text. I haven’t found a typo in years, this book had several.
How I rate books: 5 Stars= I absolutely loved it, felt very moved. Extraordinary. Maybe I cried. I rarely give this rating. 4 Stars= Well done. I was well engaged. 3 Stars= I enjoyed it but wasn't wowed. My most common rating 2 Stars=Meh 1 Stars= The kind of book that I feel shouldn't have been published be it might discourage some from becoming readers.
This book is okay. Alice gives a lot of good information about understanding ourselves and others in relationships based on Venus, Mars and Moon signs. But a lot of this information is available on her blog for free. I'm not sure who the audience is for the books as her long time fans already know a lot about the things that were mentioned in the book. Also, I do not like the writing style of the book. It feels rather informal to me? But that's just a minor criticism. Overall, if you are at an intermediate level in learning astrology, you can skip this book
I loved this book!!! Alice did such a great job at succinctly explaining the mechanics of astrology, while so giving a masterclass on the ways it can affect relationships. She and I have many similarities in our charts and life stories so I often felt like this book was written just for me. 😌 Honestly though I have been searching for a book that wasn’t just a running list of all the signs and their placements and this was exactly what I needed.
Whew, there's a lot of information packed into this book! I learned a lot from it but I will be coming back to it time and time again. So much information!
Great book but I would say it's best suited for those who already have a fairly good understanding of astrology. Not a beginner's book in my opinion.
Alice has written such a great book that simply explains astrology in a digestible, and engaging way! If you’re new to astrology or familiar this book can help you deeper understand the astrology behind your relationships, or potential timing of a relationship. 💓
Really good book for people who are discovering more about astrology. As someone who has been into astrology for over ten years now the beginning chapters weren't necessarily for me but I enjoyed Alice's way of explaining introductory concepts. The chart examples and anecdotes were my absolute favourite parts of this book and I could read a whole book on more of these relationship examples and their timings. Excellent stuff!
