Summary: Best Book on Sun / Moon sign combinations
Review: Contents summary: Interprets all 144 combinations of Sun and Moon sign in the birth chart separately (420pp). Introduction, including discussion of the Sun, Moon and the elements (46pp). Tables of precise Sun and Moon sign change times, and time zone corrections (96pp).
Charles Harvey, a leading astrological scholar of the later 20th century, died a couple of years ago aged not far from 60, but left behind this modern masterpiece of properly researched basic natal astrology, which originates in the study of real people and draws as much detail out of each of the 144 Sun/Moon combinations as could be hoped for. The interpretations are each substantial in length but concise and packed with observational detail, building very significantly on Grant Lewi's pioneering treatment of the combinations from the 1940s. They inevitably round people up and sometimes typecast the extreme manifestations of each combination a little over-assuredly. They are of course subject to the modifying influence of non-Sun/Moon sign factors in the birth chart, but they come as close as they can given their scope. Indispensable reference book.

Summary: It is my bible
Review: I bought this book four years ago. It is now being held together by a rubberband. Everytime I discover someones Moon I'm astonished, the only person's moon I hve trouble figuring is my own. Every few months I have to read it to see if I really understand it, but with almost everyone else I got them pegged. I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!

Summary: Sun Sign, Moon Sign
Review: I call this the Book of Forgiveness and now teach a workshop dedicated to teaching its principles. As a therapist, bla, de, bla de bla, I came up short in understanding relationships, particularly my own. I hate paradigms and boxes but this book provides a new way of thinking about people that helps them understand themsleves and others and why they fall into the same relationship over and over again.

Summary: So-So
Review: I was at a party, when a friend cracked open this book. One by one, we each calculated our moon signs (which none of us had even heard of before). chart was super easy to read. And we were all almost in tears, over how acurate the descriptions were. Each description is only 2-3 pages, but soooo right on.I'm suspicious of astrology, so i read some other descriptions and they were not me at all. So, i feel pretty confident that it is not just worded so everyone can relate.

Summary: This book is astonishing!
Review: This is a great book. Once you discover a person's moon sign, by using the clear, easy-to-use charts in the back, you simply flip to their particular page in the body of the book. Each sun/moon combination has it's own 2 pages, in which is described the person's personality, outlook on relationships, strengths, weaknesses, etc. Especially helpful are the "image for integration," a sentence or two describing a scene that is representative of the person. I highly reccommend this book to anyone-beginner, intermediate, or advanced.
