Generally I like to start out with a disclaimer. I am identify as a magical Buddhist. I look for the connection between magic and science without the need to search for a creator. I believe in spiritually and holistic wellness. I find that we can heal the world if we just sit down and and listen to the breath. I believe that magic, science and nutritional well being are the cornerstone to a well rounded holistic life. I have recently updated my site from Confessions of a Modern Witch to my new page To Live Whole. I welcome you to come along for my journey of health, wellness and self exploration.
I receive no compensation for these reviews and all my links are standard Amazon links and not affiliate links. I am a practicing photo reader and have spent the last 16 years honing my craft. I offer personal readings by request and have a strong online history that boasts over 438,000 views.
As usual I'll start with a review of the physical book. This was a small book. So much so that you could easily lose it in a backpack or large purse. It is rough to the touch but has a very attractive cover. The text is large despite the small stature and the book does not contain an index.
This book is exactly as it is described. It is an A-Z book of definitions related to astrology. It does take the definitions a step farther than one would expect and includes a bit of poetic license in its descriptions.
The author goes on to tell us about the house associated with the moon as well as her colors and metal associations.
She says the following regarding Pisces:
As someone who has taken a tumble several times over the last few weeks I an say this is pretty much spot on. (laughs)
Overall a cute book with some very skillfully written albeit non-scientific definitions of astrology terms. A great book to have if you want a bit of light reading that can be whimsical and still contain a bit of magic.

She says the following regarding Pisces:
Pisces, noun
Pisces is best when allowed to drift, to float without judgement in everlasting bliss. Then, this Jupiter ruled sign can commune with the cosmos. Pisces strive to be in the world, yet not of the world. The constellation associated with this mutable water sign is the Fish, two fish that are tied together. Pisces may need to work to stay present, to reach for the stars without getting tangled up by their own feet.

Although, I don't believe in Astrology and signs of Zodiac, I would really buy this book. It looks so cool. I especially like, that it is made in dark tones.
