What can you say about this book in particular? And about her other books - Sun Signs and Love Signs.

What I did find is that she has some interesting bits in the preface and the introduction that are quite true.

Ahhh at last, someone to talk about it, I posted a topic on all three books about 4 monts ago, but to no avail, and had the thread deleted...

Star signs, I liked the book very much, the part that intrigued me was the Lexigram Chapter...
The part about Physical Immortality, the way we are programmed to die one day, makes some sense to me, cellular reversal... Very interesting, and some of her stories/claims is quite mind tingling if I may put it that way... Frequencies, Mmmmm possible...

One of my Friend's Lexigramed my name as per instruction of that book about two years ago - This is the results, and I were shocked as I stared up the results, and they were truth, and that of a friend that did not know me so well...

HERMAN COETZEE

NO MATRON
THE MARE TORE AT HER MAN, THEN RAN TO HARM HERMES (in) COT

TRENCH COAT
HARM NEAR

HE CAN TEACH ME
HE CAN TAME ME
HE CAN REACH ME
HE CAN CHARM ME
HE (is) NOT MEAN
HE (is) NOT A CHEAT
HE CAN NOT HARM

TEAZE HER
HEAT HER TO A CRAZE
MATE (with) HER, MATE TO HER HEART
HEAR HER MOAN
ONE TO MATCH HER CAME TO HER
THEN A TEAR RAN

HEART (of) REH ; HEART (of) AMON
REACH TO THE NORTH
HE (is) HER HEART MATE ; THEN CHANT MATE
CREATE HER OTHER NAME
[HECATE OR HERA OR ANOTHER]

REACH TO THE NORTH;
THEN NAME HER

REACH ANOTHER NOTCH
EARN ZEN THEN TEACH OTHER MEN

MOTE THEE CATCH HER
ERE MORN COMETH TO HARM HER


Well that is about it, please note that I read the book about 2 years ago, and is currently lying at one of my Aunt's... But I'll try my best to recall most of it...

As to her Sun Signs, and Love Signs, I thought they were brilliant, and made a great deal of sense, and her way of explaining every detail so that we may understand it, is very good

I am in progress of reading it, so I cannot discuss the particulars. Wait a couple of days.

Well, it took a bit longer than a couple of days *grin*

I finished it and it left me with a feeling that she somehow found the right truths but drew the wrong conclusions about them... I don't know where to put my finger on it, but I sense something wrong about it - that in some way she has (unconsciously, probably) distorted the truth so as to draw mistaken conclusions. I dont know what makes me feel so, but thats what I feel...

About the lexigramming, I am very sceptical about it due to some reasons:

a. The word messiah that she keep going about as containing good stuff also lexigrams to "HE IS an ASS" *lol*
b. The way she chooses what words to use repulses me - she chooses whatever words are useful for relaying her message, despite the fact that other conclusions can be drawn from the same set - often contradictory. Especialy the way she uses "yes", "no" and "not" - you can ask any question and answer by the means of the words, the way she presents it.
c. the whole "English" as a primal language theory that she presents - sounds spooky... I don't know. Besidesd the fact that if I am not mistaken, English is a crossbreed of German and Roman at all.

Other opinions? *smile*

The descritpion is personal - it is what you make of it. Many time it will be meaningless to outsiders. However, I am sure you can glimpse at the description within.

because it's not exactly accurate and it relies too much on environmental factors versus astrological.

in other words, in delves too deeply into the realms of CONDITIONAL and general psychology.

sex signs is a much better read. different author, though. really explores the extremes of astrologically based fetishism. sort of similar to love signs, in that it gives a general overview of a particular sign, male and female, as well as what they like and how to get their attention. best part of it is that it is well researched AND backed by the writers personal survey of several representations of all signs.

Paged through two books about sexual astrology yesterday, and it was quite informative... I was preparing to laugh before I opened the first one because I'm ignorant when it comes to astrology in general. Swallowed my laugh because everything around my sign was either true, or very close...

Here goes: *lol*

"Sexual Astrology" by Joanna Woolfolk
"Sexcopes" by Stuart Hazleton
