Anyone here ever read the book Linda Goodmans "Sun Signs"?
Its an astrology book published back in the 70's which IMO, is the most accurate. It was passed down to me by my mom after she decided to quit the Ouija and Fate magazine (which... growing up I loved incidentally, is fate magazine still around?). Anyway, I feel that the books description of "me" sums me up as if it were written exactly about me. And Ive always wondered if others familiar with the book perceive it the way I do...

1. Yes, I think it describes me to a tee, as well.
My mother had that book around the house for years! And, I would often read it over and over.

2. I was turned onto that book by my previous boss.

He had a 'unique' interview process for students or employees. He was chair of our department - Art History. He would sketch the person as he was interviewing them to put into their application folder. He would have their birthdates and before the interview, he'd read whatever sign chapter he needed to from Linda's book. Neat guy. He was a Sag. and a real charmer to work with. Kinda wish I hadn't left that dept. :(

Edited to say that it fits hubby and I to a tee. Hubby is Taurus and I'm Aries.

3. Yup, we've got it. It's a classic.
Granted, the sun sign definitions are only one part of the picture, but it's still worthy stuff.

6. Read it and loved it!
The descriptions were dead on and very accurate! At least that is how I felt about it at the time. I carried that book around for years--it was tattered and torn from my reading it over and over again! LOL!

9. Sun Signs and Love Signs were and still are two of my all-time favs
I found them to be amazingly accurate in so many ways. They are just essential parts of my astrological library.
