I found this to be the equivalent of people paying to go to a Gypsy or Fortune Teller at a fair. Sure some of the colors make sense, but most people can figure that out on their own. However, anyone can make sense or comparisons of anything broad enough to encompass one or another thoughts on how colors align with what types of jobs a person should have in the same way a "Fortune teller" would say, "I see water" and a "train" "wait there's a bridge"... they didn't say if it was past or present only that they see it and then because they put the idea out there, the person starts to make associations... "oh, remember when uncle Joe found money on the bridge 5 years ago, or maybe the next day it rains and they say see she knew it was going to rain on me... or two weeks later when the toilet backs-up. (it's just coincidence that they make an association to it because the bug was planted in their ear and they need to find a reason for it to have been told to them) yeah, this book has about that same level of credibility. I have no idea what possessed me to purchase it, only that based on the age of the book and the box I found it in, tells me I was likely thinking it was different type of book as that time period I was taking art classes and perhaps thought it would help me then. Unfortunately, I didn't read it then, and reading it now seems like such a waste of my time, but now it's off my shelf and on its way to the thrift shop where maybe someone else who believes in this hooey can read it, LOL!
I give it 1.5 stars for entertainment. The art in the book is terrible! LOL!
