I love this book! There aren't many books out there which are astrologically geared towards women. With this book, the author focused on the inner planets in detailed (i.e. sun, moon, mercury, venus and mars). She devoted about the 1st third of the book on these planets in the 12 different signs, written in a very causal, easy-to-understand tone. I'm especially impressed by the way she gave numerous real-life examples to back up her astrological explanations on the different signs, e.g. the author used Drew Barrymore to illustrate the influence of having a few inner planets in pisces. My favourite part is the bit about looking into the moon-venus signs in men and what they look for in a potential partner - I hope one day the author will write a whole book on this topic! She also went on to explain briefly about other bigger planets like Jupiter and Saturn, rising signs, planetary returns, compatibility between signs and elements. She also included a part about finding your inner planets (in the cases of suppressions), what you can do to bring out/get in touch with your moon or venus for example. In conclusion, I would highly recommend this book, especially to beginners in astrology. She only went over the art of chart interpretation briefly, so for anyone who's interested in interpreting their birthcharts only (esp. their inner planets), and not want to get into the nitty gritty of chart interpretation yet, then this would be a great starter to the topic.

This book is great because it provides much more information than you would expect for its price. It focuses on the positions of the inner planets but has a lot of interesting tidbits about everything from signs to romance. I love the casual tone of the book and how the author uses celebrities as examples to illustrate particular sign characteristics.
