The famous astrologer Linda Goodman, with sparkling humor and subtle insight, has compiled psychological portraits of all the signs of the Zodiac. You will understand why:
Your Gemini child is so often capricious;
A Cancer husband hates parting with old things;
A Virgo colleague so persistently puts the office in order;
A Leo boss drives long-suffering secretaries to distraction.
Anticipating the harsh criticism that may be directed at the Publisher, Translator, and Editor of this book, let us immediately surrender to the authorities and confess that we fully share the assertion of the Great Soviet Encyclopedia that astrology is a «false doctrine» which only by some misunderstanding did not «fall into decline with the discoveries of Copernicus» and, contrary to all logic, continues to this day to muddle people’s minds, being «still widespread in a number of capitalist countries». In our state, even before the era of glasnost, astrology managed to shyly build illegal nests in the most desperate newspapers and magazines, where it usually hid in inconspicuous corners of the last page. Even today many readers, marking in some newspaper the most unfavorable days of the month for themselves, hardly suspect that they were “calculated” with astrological data in mind.
