It's credibility was not helped by the fact that the personal reputation / credibility of the author is quite low (she was quite naive throughout her life evidenced in the way she handled money or signed contracts, started some kind of a cult with her 20 year younger lover, and kept believing that her daughter is not dead after her tragic suicide at a very young age (the last of which is more sad than crazy); but overall the image is of a tragic yet flimsy woman. Even if it's not about love you are enquiring about, Linda Goodman provides a thorough explanation of each star sign and what they are like as a child, woman and man. I went directly to the Aquarius vs Virgo page of course and was dismayed to find such a relationship described as 'the ultimate challenge'. In most cases, interested persons were already at least identified with their sun sign, and so you might say that I'm reviewing as and for biased parties, but MAN, Linda Goodman sure can pen down that flowery language for each sign as though she's been there before, and it impresses all those I've talked to. She's eerily on target with the joys and heartaches that can be expected with every possible astrological match.

Linda Goodman's Love Signs is a complete astrological guide to personal relationships, offering compelling insight and advice for every zodiac sign - and the compatibility of every possible pairing. If you are looking for a great started book for Astrology and how the different signs relate to one another - this is the ONE BOOK I would recommend. Linda Goodman's Sun Signs was a flagrant offender in this regard; the worst of it occurred in the "Taurus Man" and "Pisces Woman" sections.What seems to set Goodman’s books apart from other stargazing guides is their knowledgeable approach and comprehensive reach. Yes, plenty of other sections (mainly those involving the Leo Woman, with the exception above) extol the "necessity" of a man being a servant to the woman instead of the reverse. Linda Goodman is such a talented author because while teaching her readers about the sun signs and how the behave around each other but she uses his words in such a poetic way that just blows the readers away.

It sort of creates a preceptive dilemma since you start to see people in a new light and wonder, am I really connecting the dots in people's behavioral patterns and getting to know them better? Love Signs is an iconic book that creates pure poetry out of our favorite astrological love matches.g., "You are a nice person but have experienced some hard knocks when people tried to took advantage of you. An updated edition of the sensational New York Times bestseller from world-famous master astrologer Linda Goodman. I have a really old edition of this book, and I use it every time I'm in the process of creating characters for my stories. From the earliest days of my fascination with astrology, there was one author whose work invariably left me with mixed feelings: Linda Goodman. It relies on statements about people and their personalities or their future that are generic but sound specific and that's how people get fooled.
