Rating: 5 out of 5 stars. I loved the book! I think it is a good read for beginners or for people who do not have any knowledge of astrology. The information is written in a pleasant and easy-to-understand way. I gave readings to several members of my family following the instructions in the book, and they were all surprised at how accurate most of the descriptions of the signs were. This book could be very useful for people who are starting to read astrological charts, those who create astrological content on social media, or those who want to understand the Chinese horoscope a little easier. It brings a lot of information, very detailed in each area of life. Personally, I loved it! Highly recommended. ~ Kerly Jd (Reviewer) , NetGalley

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars. This was an interesting look into the zodiac signs both western and Chinese. It also gives quick review of the signs and how to tell which sign is yours. I also liked how it showed how your western zodiac and Chinese zodiac interact with each other. It really went in-depth with some of the aspects of the zodiacs and relations between certain ones. ~ Molly Borum (Reviewer), NetGalley
A compelling addition to any astrological library with an ingenious interweaving of Western and Chinese astrology, demonstrating how a blending of both can produce a broader understanding of yourself and your relationships. Jill Carr has triumphed in describing personality traits of each Sun sign with their Chinese counterpart - a blend of 144 combinations. A Leo born in Pig year differs from a Leo Rat, with the Eastern sub-division into Metal, Water, Wood, Fire, Earth refining the interpretation further. A truly comprehensive run-down on individual characteristics and how they operate as life partners, family members, friends, and work mates. You won't need to look any further. ~ Marjorie Orr, astrologer at www.star4cast.com

Thank you, Jill, for allowing us to move forward with much pleasure on the path of wisdom. ~ Isabelle Ferreira de Sousa, Consultant Certificate in Astrology by the British Astrological and Psychic Society, Diploma in Morphology from the French Society of Morphopsychology
