Conscious Cool Chic

As a practicing astrologer, I consider myself a zodiac-junkie because I'm always curious and interested in new contributions to the understanding of the stars.

Over the years I've read a lot of astrology books that take standard star information and give it a new twist in order to seem fresh, original, worthy of reading. Sometimes there is a kernel of wise information within these contributions, but oftentimes they are simply re-stating what is already known. One more dust-collecting book to add to my collection.

But Rick DiClemente's The Exquisite Zodiac is different. I was up reading it late every night because the information was fresh and flowed beautifully. He explains WHY the signs are the way they are and puts them in relationship to one another. Virgo and Leo couldn't be any more different, but they need each other - why? Capricorn and Sag are an odd energetic pair, but what makes them useful next to each other in the zodiac line-up? Rick explains the connections of the signs and supplies a solid understanding for why the star signs are arranged so perfectly. He also explains what the archetypes of the zodiac represent so the reader can apply - and recognize - these insights in the real world.

If you're new to astrology or already know a sign or two, this is an excellent resource to enjoy for more understanding. If you're a seasoned pro about the stars, you may enjoy these new insights, connections and explanations as well.

The Exquisite Zodiac has originality, depth and practical understanding, plus there are visuals and lyrical poems that add creative flair. As a fellow astrologer, this is one title that I will gladly read again to appreciate how beautiful - and exquisite - the astrological signs are individually and collectively.
