Linda Goodman's Love Signs: A New Approach to the Human Heart

Product Information

In Goodman's world, there is one ideal relationship: gender-conforming man with gender-conforming woman. If it puzzles you that she repeatedly expresses support for the ERA, yet describes dominance as "masculine" and submission as "feminine," your reaction indicates not that you are blind to any strand of esoteric wisdom, but that you do not share Goodman's Victorian interpretations of gender. From the earliest days of my fascination with astrology, there was one author whose work invariably left me with mixed feelings: Linda Goodman. Wendy was clearly a Cancerian--motherly, possessive, gentle and imaginative, trying out her wings in a flight of fancy under the Full Moon, as Moon Maidens often do. Whether you're embarking on a first date or are seriously involved, Linda Goodman's Love Signs will help you open up the lines of communication and unlock the power of your relationship.

The next entry is the Aries/Taurus Relationship, which precedes Aries Woman/Taurus Man, which itself precedes Aries Man/Taurus Woman. still obsessed by twin desires, longing to settle down with Wendy, yet longing just as fiercely to remain free—and true to himself (Goodman, 2).I also like that her tone is loving of every sign and you couldn't really pick what her sign was without looking it up. Yes, plenty of other sections (mainly those involving the Leo Woman, with the exception above) extol the "necessity" of a man being a servant to the woman instead of the reverse.

Apart from that, *spoiler alert* the part that connects the soul's journey through the karmic wheel of birth and reincarnations to the astrological feats of each sign and their existential challenge/mission is really interesting. What I particularly adored about her books was how she sprinkled beautiful verses and poetry throughout, and her references to beloved children's book characters like Alice and Peter Pan were utterly endearing.Lively, entertaining and informative, this book will help you better understand your partner and your relationship. I have a really old edition of this book, and I use it every time I'm in the process of creating characters for my stories. I have gifted this book to several of my friends- it serves as a great reference for understanding and maintaining relationships between the different signs. It's great for those girly sleepovers where you discuss your crushes and become armchair psychologists and dissect everyone's personalities! Imagine reading a thousand-page book full of paragraphs of this nature, and you have Linda Goodman's Love Signs summarized well.
