Loved this book. Great information about crystals, chakras and astrology with some numerology thrown in as well. Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for letting me review this book. Would recommend.

I received a free ARC via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This book is one of the best books I’ve read on the topic of zodiac signs for these reasons:
* lots of information, given in a compact and concise manner
* the description of the star sign I was born under was bang on, This should be an indication that others are just as accurate.
* So much more than just zodiac signs in this book. I love some of the other sections, like the 20 Tibetan Keys to Happiness, crystals and chakras.

This book is well worth reading, jam packed with useful information, detailed enough to be valuable and practical, but short enough to be enjoyable to read and easy to absorb. I bookmarked and highlighted a ton Of pages, and I always find the total number of those are directly related to the value I get from the book..

I find Astrology very fascinating. It has been a hobby of mine for very many years. I am not a beginner but am far from an expert .With that said I loved this book and found it very accurate and informative. I also liked how Smilena included crystal grids and how to use them into this book. That is something new to me. She explains about the different crystal and what to use them for. And about Chakras and your life path number Also included was 4 short stories that have a very wise meaning to each. This was a very fast read and a great book to keep handy. It was all very interesting. I would highly recommend this book to anyone with little knowledge about astrology, it was very easy to understand.

I’ve always been a fan of astrology and all things that normally are associated with it. Crystals, healing, life path numbers etcetera. I’m a cusp baby, so I always look to see where books place me, Scorpio or Sagittarius; so reading about the traits easily of both was extremely helpful. Briefly I had heard about Vedic astrology and that it switched up the astrology charts, interesting too see myself exactly fully in Scorpio, I’m eager to read more about it. I understand that not everyone believes in this, but it’s always helpful to find those little aspects of your astrology fitting in with yourself and it making a bit more sense. If you enjoy these types of books, have ever been curious about Life Path numbers or crystals definitely check it out. I think we could all stand to open our minds a little more, this universe has so many things to offer and sometimes it just makes sense.

I received an advanced reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.

This book is so accurate to my star sign and very interesting to read. I loved the section at the end about chakras and their role in our life and found it easy to follow and understand.
Each star sign is spread out in parts and these too are easy to follow and very informative for each star sign.
At the end is the Vedic astrology related to your sign and explains its features which again were very accurate to my sign.
An enjoyable read that I will refer back to in the future.

I am a Scorpio zodiac. This was a good book that tells you all about your zodiac signs. I read about mine. Some info was true to me...some just too general. Entertaining.

I love reading about numerology and astrology and as a Pisces, this just made my day!
It's short, well described and in a simple language that you can just read and understand as you go.
Thanks Netgalley for the eARC.

This was a very easy to read and informative book. Loved the way it was set out and all the information given for all the signs. A great gift book for someone as its relevant to absolutely everyone!

Whether your new to the zodiac signs or not, this is definitely recommended.

Thank you Books Go Social and NetGalley.

I know very little about astrology and Zodiac signs and found this book to be very, very helpful. The Taurus sign described me perfectly, the signs for my daughter, husband and even my dog were spot on.
I received this book during a difficult time. My ten year old dog's health was failing fast. I felt that we had a very special, soulmate connection and an understanding and communication with each other beyond words. I looked his birthdate up in this book and found how we do align as true soulmates. This was nice to read as he made his transition.
Zodiac Signs is a fantastic book for newbies like me because it tells you everything you want to know about each sign, without going into overwhelming detail. In concise fashion, Smilena Kirilova just gets to the point using simple terms that we can all understand. She tells us how other signs connect with ours, and ways to help ourselves based on our signs. I will refer to this book often, especially during stressful times like these. Thank you #NETGALLEY for allowing me to read this ARC in exchange for my honest review #ZODIACSIGNS

This was a quick read about the every sign in the Zodiac. I appreciate the extra information including some numerology as well. The chapter about my sign, Gemini, was spot on. I found myself chuckling about the signs Gemini clashes with in relationships and love, also spot on.

If anyone else is into horoscopes, the zodiac and numerology, this is the perfect book for you. It's clear and concise, and even humorous at some points. Very well written and detailed about all 12 zodiac signs. Highly recommended.

Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and author for and ARC in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Love the zodiac and this book is such an amazing fun light read. Are you stuck in quarantine with nothing to do? How about reading up on your zodiac and learn more about yourself.

Was this review helpful?

A lot of information is provided. More than just a horoscope. Information relating to what I was looking for was easy to find, very clear to understand and interesting. This was not what I was expecting, it’s a lot more.

Learn about Astrology.

Learn about yourself.

The signs, what the characteristics of them are, how they relate to you and how they make you feel.

The cause and effect of our zodiac life path is a truly riveting, life long subject study of fascinating insights of information and confirmations, of fully getting to know ourselves on this life journey.

An information subject that is nice to have in book form for easy referencing.

This is a very informative book. It has each sign and tells so much about each sign. It tells about what signs do what for you. It describes each sign is so much detail. It is a good read.

Was this review helpful?

Confession: I love reading about zodiac signs. I even go that far to check my birth chart, as well as the chart from my partner when we first started dating. Not because I base my relationship on a list of zodiac signs and their location at birth, but mostly for fun. Okay, a bit for personality as well. Even though none of this is based on solid scientific results (there even had been a whole debate on whether the zodiac signs we know do even exist, as there might be a thirteenth sign), I simply enjoy reading up on it and comparing them to the personalities of people I know.

So, when I got the chance to review this book, I immediately became enthusiastic. In my opinion, books like these are often hit or miss. As a Gemini, I often read negative things about my sign, mostly focussing on the double face of my sign. I get it, that’s the idea of a Gemini, but it bothers me nonetheless: it feels like the easiest way to describe a sign without looking deeply into it.

However, this book absolutely surprised me. The title of this book doesn’t do it justice, as it is not about zodiac signs only, but offers an insight to many more topics related to this. The paged dedicated to summaries of the zodiac signs not only mentioned a short summary of the sign itself, but also linked it to things like tarot cards, crystals, and chakras. They go pretty well together, and I was happy to see them clearly and comprehensible listed together.

I felt like the information in this book was quite well-researched, and even though I didn’t necessarily learn new things when it came to the characteristics of each sign, it definitely has been one of the most understandable and complete reads about them I’ve read yet.

I most definitely recommend this book to anyone who’s interested in learning about zodiac signs and topics related to them!

This is a very informative book,not only about western astrology, but also about Vedic astrology and the difference between them. I found the information about crystals and chakras very good and I loved the last chapter with the stories/parables.
This book is ideal for anyone wanting to learn about these subjects and I think even readers with knowledge would enjoy this book.
Thank you netgalley.

I have been interested in astrology for many years, but this book held some interesting information that really was interesting. I skipped to the star sign information section first. Sometimes you find a book that is really close to explaining your strengths and weaknesses, how you interact in a relationship etc. Sometimes it's a total miss. I can honestly say that the Capricorn star sign explanation was so spot on that I was getting goosebumps and found myself reading faster and faster. I checked out several star signs for close friends, and they were equally accurate, I encourage your to read about your star sign and learn more about what makes you, YOU!. Then you can start to learn more about chakras and crystals, and so much more. This is a wonderfully complete resource book on zodiac signs and I highly recommend adding this book to your library.

Reading about zodiac signs is a guilty pleasure of mine. This was an interesting read. I found a lot of similarities in my life and the information for my sign. For signs of my closest family members, I found the personality traits are similar to their respective signs. I also found the information on crystals and chakras interesting. If you enjoy reading about zodiac signs, I recommend this book to you.

All thoughts and opinions are my own, and in no way, I have been influenced by anyone.

The first part of this book gives a detailed description of each individual zodiac, including positive & negative traits, strengths & weaknesses, relationships and so on. As a beginner just staring my astrology journey, this was perfect for me, I only wish it had covered the houses and the planets in them.
I was pleasantly surprised to see how much detail the book goes in to on other subjects like Chakras, birthstone powers, Vedic astrology and life path numbers. I will most certainly be using this book as a reference/guide in the future.

Pros: A good book that is very informative. I learned a lot about myself and my partner. From chakras to the Vedic signs, I feel like I’m now in tune with myself. This book is thorough and easy to read in one setting. I read information related to myself and loved ones, but I’m sure the parts I did not read were just as good.

Cons: There were a few things that I felt were insensitive for this day and age. For instance, the ending message by the author bothered me, but overall book is really good and interesting.

I love this reference book! Zodiac Signs: Characteristics in Relationships, Love, and Career offers more than exposing the personality traits of the twelve zodiac signs. It covers topics like Birthstones, Chakras, Vedic Astrology, Numerology, etc. Time well spent! I recommend this read to anyone who would like to feel positive and in sync with the Universe.

If you like anything to do with astrology, you'll like this book! It is FULL of information on the zodiac, but also many other topics like numerology and birthstones. It's a great reference!

This book was great and I really enjoyed reading it. I've been fascinated by astrology for as long as I can remember so this was a fun read for me.

I thought this book was very well organized and provides a broad outlook of the zodiac signs, both western and verdic, crystals, chakras and lessons of life. I think that people who value this information will like this book and use it as a reference or resource to help them succeed in life.

I've always been fascinated by astrology and was excited to get this book. However, I didn't know it was in the form of a download and I wasn't able to get the download to work so I could not read it. The other reviews I've read lead me to think that this is a very good book.

I love reading about the Zodiac. I'm a Taurus and I'm use to most 'astrologers' just categorizing me as "stubborn'. This read goes deeper into the signs. Worth the read. (Previous review missing?)
