This little book is jammed pack with information. It is organized extremely well. Everything you wish to know about your sign is here.

This has been an excellent reference book as I am learning to read natal charts. I practice Western astrology, so I cannot speak for the Chinese astrology in the second half of the book, though I did find it interesting.

The way I use this book is to go to the sign of the house or planet I am reading for. For instance, the “Virgo at Home” section for a Virgo 4th House, or “Secret Gemini” for a Gemini Moon. I have found this book’s specific examples very helpful while practicing my own interpretations, and using it (and other similar books) in this way have led to more accurate readings. This book has quickly become a favorite because of its quick and effective bullet point style entries.
