Be friends with a nice woman .

You can read the complete book on the net when it would cost you about Rs. 250 or more in the market!


Just go to https://google.com , there you type ’ linda goodman’s sun signs ’ in the box given , - press enter - then click on the 3rd link that come’s up ..


Content of the Book:


This is a really fat book , but well is it ?? I mean you obviously would read about a specific sunsign - I mean it’s not a novel that you have to read from beggining till the end ..


There are 6 articles for each sunsign (there are 12 sunsigns)..


For example for the first sunsign ..


ARIES the Ram


(March 21st through April 20th )




  1. How to Recognize ARIES




  2. The ARIES Man




  3. The ARIES Woman




  4. The ARIES Child




  5. The ARIES Boss




  6. The ARIES Employee






The Book and its purpose:


___________________________________________________________________


Here the reader must needs understand that Linda (the author) sometimes does a lot of talking and tells less and less to the point that sometimes you feel like shouting , ’’COULD YOU PLZZ FOR HEAVEN’S SAKE TELL SOMETHING USEFUL!!!!!!!’’


Actually it depends on the sunsign concerned , let me explain..


Taurus (which by the way is my sign) people are practical , and they either do not have much to do with emotions or they are unaware of theirs as well as others owing to their low levels of intuition , in short they are many a times boring , unappealing , unintriguing etc. . So the article that Linda writes on Taurus Man is boring , unappealing , unintriguing etc.. (Expect at the two edges ofcourse viz. the beginning and the end), I mean since she is talking pages and pages and pages about a person whose brains are no more rational than a shephard’s , what could you expect??


On the other hand , when she talks about more interesting signs like scorpio , capricorn, leo etc. she bores you the other way in that she cannot be understood, .... confused??? . I mean since she now is talking something esoteric and deep so obviously it will take you a lot of time before you can pick up with her.


This world of astrology is as beautiful as Taj Mahal, perhaps more romantic that History herself; it is perhaps an answer to many many questions whose answers you ever ever ever ever struggled to know.


And here comes Linda on a shaft of sunlight on a bright sunny day to hold your hand and lead you at it’s door , I hope you won’t be bored with her - I mean she sometimes talks A LOT .


Said that , I would also add on that people who love novels and know how to read them enjoyably will definetily love this book , because her style of writing is just that.. . .


Others simply gotta be patient , geminis , librans , sagis are u listening?


___________________________________________________________________


P.S. .. Mark Twain said that you should not completely trust a book lest you die of a misprint if you were following a ..whats-it-called?? ..cooking-book .. .


Keep that in mind along with that ’’Little knowledge is a dangerous thing .’’


After having given the book a first reading its good -infact important to stay away from people lest you behave in a totally weird manner ... . ;-)


And for all those who do not choose to believe in her words lemme add on that she wrote this book at the time when Saturn was in her sign , so she toiled and toiled and toiled , and well ..


Just like while reading J.K. Rowling, you feel like she’s casting a magic spell on you, and that is why you probably love her .. Linda Goodman too has her own unique quality.... :


She does not need to get into the skin of a person she’s describing , I mean she knows and understands them so well , that just a mere recollection of them doing something as small as picking a pen will make her write pages and pages .. and though what she writes is in the form of prose what you get is an unmistakable sense of ... poetry !!; it really is that beautiful .


The impact of the book , (and others such as these) is so great that images once formed in your mind while reading the book shall perhaps stay with you forever and ever ... surely and subtly changing your outlook , giving more and more dimensions to your understanding .. like water shaping a hard rock round after centuries of rubbing against it .


The author and her style of writing in this book :


She writes some qouatable and beautifully constructed lines . Her english her good , like any American’s , with a touch of a writer . She loves Gibran , Tagore .


She is lovable .
