5.0 out of 5 stars
An enlightened and hopeful look at "how we are", May 18, 1999
By A Customer
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and found it to be informative, uplifting and empowering. So many of the astrology books I've read categorize people into what seem to be predestined and inevitable characteristics. We traditionally use astrology to give us a glimpse of what is destined. Ms. Eichenbaum offers us a look at ourselves from a much more positive and hopeful place. Her approach to astrology is from a self-help perspective giving each reader a great deal of information on the soul traits exclusive to each sign. She points out the weaknesses with which we use to sabotage ourselves, as well as, the source of personal power equally influential in each sign. And then, Ms. Eichenbaum offers readers a plan to make the very best of these characteristics through the transforming path she identifies for each sign. Her book is an enlightened look at growth and how to break free from self-limiting beliefs. She shows readers how to shape and influence our destiny and not just react to what's dealt. I have found this book helpful when trying to understand friends and family. What a jewel. Thank you Ms. Eichenbaum, I look forward to reading more of your approach to astrology!

Novice, Seeker, Expert... This book is a must read., March 13, 1999
By A Customer
Diane Eichenbaum is gifted and fluid astrologer and writer as evidenced in Soul Signs. I have read many astrology books and most of them are static and predictive. Predictive has the same root and predicament! Diane teaches us that Astrology is a fluid, creative system that was given to help move us through life. The KEYWORD here is move... Diane shows us that there are gifts and challenges that we come into life. These are like little chesspieces (which one will you choose/which one do you need?) and what is the movement you are being asked to see (the challenge or opportunity presented from the outside). And just like in chess (which is my analogy, not hers) the gift or shortcoming (chesspiece) is exctly perfect for the movement and challenge we are being presented with. Diane has a playful yet profound, uplifting approach to the mysteries and challenges of life and teaches, with charisma and integrity, the value and meaning of astrology. Soul Signs is an inspiration and a "must read" for everyone. It's a great gift, too. I bought my copy around Christmas and had it in my library when my family arrived for Christmas dinner. One by one each member of my family picked up Soul Signs and read their sign. It was so wonderful, I finally picked up my camera and took pictures so I could send them to the Author. Afterwards, they all asked me to pick up a copy for them. It's such a great price, I just added it to their Christmas gift. What fun, what joy. Give yourself some joy. Read Soul Signs.
