I don't have an in-depth background in astrology or the analysis of my own astrological chart but this book was perfect for me. It is extremely well-written and easy to understand, and profound in its insight. I enjoyed it immensely and learned a great deal about my destiny and place in the universal scheme of things!

The simple looking cover and the simple way the concepts are presented lead you to believe the concepts are going to be simple such as you would find in a book like "An Idiot's Guide to Astrology". You know the kind of books I mean; the ones that spell out the most basic and elementary concepts for beginners. But nothing could be further from the truth. The concepts are eye-opening and valuable. They are especially valuable to people who are completely serious about the study of astrology and crave this kind of information. I have about 12 astrology books that are my most valuable resource books. These are the books I always open when I'm working on a chart. I call this my toolbox and I have added this book to my toolbox. From now on I will look at the position of a person's 12th house cusp as a key component of chart interpretation since it shows the actions you have to take in order to solve the dilema of the rest of the chart. In my own life it has been the Golden Key. Bravo Marguerite, many thanks and I look forward to seeing your next book!

Cosmic Karma is required reading for anybody walking through life wondering what the Universe expects of them. Marguerite Manning has a highly effective therapeutic approach in her writing. As you follow along, do not be surprised to find every word lining up exactly with how events have unfolded in your life already. This book is empowering in that it leaves no room for self-pity or victimization and at the same time opens your eyes to the contract you signed before incarnating into this world. If this book doesn't light a fire under your butt to get things right this time around, I don't know what will! In her brilliant style Marguerite holds a mirror up and shows you the reflection of your soul via your birth chart a.k.a contract with the Universe. I wish there were a higher rating to award her book, she deserves top rating for this most delightful read:)

This Book is an Owner's Manuel for life !!
Easy to use and understand, so helpful to navigate life's ups and downs. It amazes me that in all of the history of humanity the human race has not taken more advantage of this knowledge to better our experience in this life. This is a must read for everyone who wants to gain direction and understanding. The authors humorous take is a joy to read, so cleaver and fun.

Cosmic Karma is a cosmic gem... and you don't need to be an astrologer to understand it. This insightful little book highlights the `astrology of the soul', by integrating your past life and present life attributes (that includes the good, the bad and the ugly) - by using your current birth chart. Written in a very down to earth style, this book gave me a much better understanding of `what makes me tick'... But even more fascinating, I now realize that by looking at my current contract with the universe (my birth chart), I am able to glean a few spiritual tidbits from my most recent past life - something I find very intriguing. You won't want to miss this book... It's witty and charming - and an easy read, even for the novice. I loved it!

Being lost is no fun. This book made me feel that there is direction in my life. Very well written and still fun to read. I recomend this book to anyone with questions.

I'll be honest..I haven't read many books on Astrology, but after reading Cosmic Karma I realized I didn't need to.

If you're like me, then you probably have the belief that we were born into this lifetime with at least a general purpose, maybe even a specific one. And if you share that belief with me, then you might also believe that your life's path would feel more complete, more meaningful, if you could keep your feet on, or possibly near, but at the very least in the general direction of that purpose. For that to be the case, you'd have to have a sense of that purpose which is what Marguerite Manning helps to guide you to in her book, Cosmic Karma. If you will give the book a chance, read through it with one eye on the book and the other eye on yourself, I think you will be just as fascinated as I was at what this science of spirit, as interpreted by Marguerite, can reveal about who we were in the most recent past life and how we can use that information to understand our purpose in this lifetime.

And, no, you won't learn exactly who you were. This book won't tell you that you were Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, Napoleon or Elvis (definitely not Elvis, because he's still alive). It does, however, give you a good general idea of how your soul made it to this point in the big cosmic game of birth, death and rebirth, thereby giving you hints as to the character you chose to play in this lifetime to fulfill your Contract With the Universe.

I hope this review made sense to you, and even more so, I hope you find this book to be as helpful and self-empowering to you as it continues to be for me. Enjoy!!

Marguerite Manning's style is charming, intense and hopefully. Cosmic Karma is written with a deep knowledge of karmic astrology and just enough humor to keep your analytical brain engaged! Marguerite takes the grand, often sweeping panacea of karmic astrology and turns into relevant daily language that anyone can understand.

The first chapter, The Birth Chart: Your Contract with the Universe is probably the most revealing. In it, Marguerite makes it a point to speak directly to your soul, which has a profound effect upon the reader. The rest of the book breaks down your Signs, Houses and Planets into Karmic Degrees, Karmic Calling, Karmic Lesson, Karmic Debt, Karmic Arsenal, and Karmic Closet. It is a brilliant book, written by a very old soul educating us through the unique language of Astrology.

It is a must have for every Astrology Student's Library!

Before reading Cosmic Karma, I knew very little about the world of astrology . . . let alone karmic astrology. I had skimmed a few astrological articles before and found them confusing and full of terms and references that were hard to follow. But Marguerite's book guides you effortlessly through the realm of karmic astrology, with plenty of humor and charm to keep you entertained along the way. Marguerite's writing style is very enjoyable and her book holds a wealth of information that I think even the karmic astrology connoisseur would find helpful. I am grateful for Cosmic Karma's assistance in helping me discover my Contract with the Universe and highly recommend this book to everyone!

I have always been interested in Astrology, but never went beyond reading my daily horoscope. I have never found the time to read a book with more in depth information. It was on a friend's recommendation that I ordered Marguerite Manning's book. I found this book to be extraordinarily helpful and easy to understand. After printing out my chart using the author's recommended websites, I found it easy to decipher the meaning with Ms. Manning's book. Cosmic Karma was entertaining, full of wit and humorous examples. I found the whole experience fascinating, and would highly recommend this book to anybody with an interest in gaining insight into their "contract with the universe"!
