Great Basic. Easy to Understand
I listened to this book via a NetGalley audio option and absolutely loved it. The narrator was pleasant to listen to and she added some liveliness to the reading. I learned about how the houses are ordered, something that I had previously been confused about. The information on the rising signs and moon signs was enlightening. I would highly recommend this audiobook. This is a good book for people who are fairly new to astrology and covers some basics that are usually not covered because the assumption is we already know it. I liked the audiobook so much I am going to purchase the book for reference. I have already recommended the book to a couple of online groups. Check it out if you get a chance.

An amazing introduction to Astrology
What's Your Sign? is the perfect introductory book to astrology! Everything is BEAUTIFULLY done from the use of their memes from their Instagram as visual aids - to the way it's organized by color tabs which makes finding your signs, etc. easy to find. It's a perfect reference if you are reading your friend's charts or if you just want to better understand your birth chart! This makes a great gift to a friend that is also looking to better understand what you are blabbering about all the time - and because it's so nice it's also a perfect coffee table book.

Delightful Introduction to Astrology
Three words to describe this book: Virgo. Capricorn. Aquarius.What’s Your Sign is written by the popular app, Sanctuary Astrology and provides a beginner guide for astrology. (If you’re not familiar with the app and you like astrology, check it out. I know I’ve used it to look up my moon and rising to impress a cute girl!) The book goes over the basics of astrology, understanding your star chart – including breakdowns of the planets and the rotations, description of the signs, and a fascinating chapter on how horoscopes are written.The audio features a new-to-me narrator – Jorjeana Marie who reads the book like a best friend explaining things to you. She’s funny and relatable and made listening to the book easy. I think this material could easily become dull, but she kept it lively and engaging.I think this topic area could get dull quickly going through the signs but the way this was written made it interesting and fascinating. For example, do you know about planetary returns? This is when a planet returns to the same position it was during the time of someone’s birth – marking a new chapter in their life. This year marks the return of Pluto – the first in 248 years! So, this year should kick of a new part of our lives.Another interesting fact is that planets move through the signs. Some planets orbit the sun faster – do this more frequently whereas planet with slower orbits is far less frequent. Many of those that are born in the Millennium generation were born when Pluto was in Scorpio. The last time this happened in history was between 1736-1747, a time when many leaders in the US Revolutionary War and the writing of the Constitution were born (same for the French Revolution!) There’s some astrological truth about our generation being special.My only complaint about this audio is that some of the sections were hard to follow as there were tables or references in the text. I’d recommend following along with a print or Kindle version to have a comprehensive experience. I’m going to be picking up a print copy because it sounds like it has a lot of fun illustrations!If you want to learn more about astrology, this book is a great place to start!ARC was provided to me in exchange for an honest review.

Astrology 101
This is a basic guide to astrology and is meant for beginners. It mainly covers the concept of a birth chart, the information needed to develop one, and the basics of how to interpret it, with a particular emphasis on Sun, Moon, and Ascending signs. There’s also a guide for each of the 12 signs and the characteristics they embody.Okay, truth be told, I’ve never really been into astrology. I mean, I knew I was an Aquarius, but I didn’t really even know what that meant. When I stumbled across this book, I decided to try it just out of curiosity. The level of knowledge was perfect for someone like me who had only a vague understanding of what astrology is. I found the book interesting and easy to follow.If you’re curious about the general idea of astrology and how it works, this is a great introduction.

Great intro to the very complex world of astrology
What’s Your Sign? is a great overview of the massively complex world of astrology! Love the way everything is broken down and organized, and if you’re familiar with their social media the graphics will feel familiar and make the info easy to understand. There’s so much to astrology that I often have a hard time keeping it all straight in my head, so this will continue to be a great, easy to use reference book for when I’m reading charts for friends and family.I received a copy of this book from the publisher. Opinions and review are my own and provided voluntarily.
