Mystic Medusa's Sun Signs and Soul Mating: What Your Friends Won't Tell You, Your Sun Sign Will

Mystic Medusa's Sun Signs & Soul Mating offers sun sign astrology for the romantic and sexually-minded reader. From Aries to Pisces, each sign's basic personality traits, strengths, weaknesses, affections, and compatibilities with other signs is discussed in hip modern lingo. For example, the chapter on Aries is divided into "Motivating and manipulating an Aries", "Brilliant career", "Fiscal reality", "An Aries in love" (comparing relationships between Aries and each other sign), "Are you really an Aries?" and more. A juicy and highly accessible modern guide to astrology for lust, love, or would-be lovers.

As always Mystic Medusa is right on the mark with her witty writing style that indicates not only her passion for astrology but her knowledge of it. As with her everyday horoscopes, when it comes to describing your sign and reviewing compatibility, Mystic does it with flair and accuracy. FOr anyone who reads her online horoscopes or those in the Newspapers, her books are worth a look. And if you are yet to become familiar with Mystic, here is a good place to start. Entertaining, Insightful, and a must for anyone interested in Astrology.

I was sitting in a Bondi Beach cafe a few years ago, having breakfast, when an acquaintance decided she would read out my 'stars' from the Weekend Australian newspaper. I remember being horrified: the line I recall was something like "I am Aries, hear me bleat" and was a complete dissection of the Ram ego. The writer was Mystic Medusa, and I've been a fan ever since as are lots of filmmaker/artist/writer/academic-types. Now we have this book which is actaully a compendium of Mystic's first two cult books. Anyone who likes arch, bitchy, funny and seeringly accurate Sun sign writing is going to love this book. Especially if - like me - you're an urban Bo-Bo. The book is divided into two parts: Sun signs at the front; soulmating (via your Venus & Mars aspects) at the back. An instant classic; wonderful to read out to one another. My favourite line: "Quote them to them, even if they didn't actually utter the genius."

I always say that Mystic Medusa "tells it like it is". Even my Virgo flatmate who "isn't into" astrology starts listening when i quote Mystic. He's seen how uncannily accurate Mystic's work can be. The Sun Signs book is a warts and all look at each sign, and what makes them tic...and not tic and where they like to live and what they like to do and who they fall in love with. In short, everything the beginner or even the more advanced astrology buff with a good sense of humour could want to know. The Soul Mating guide is great fun and once again, right on the money. It gives a down to earth insight into the challenges and strengths of each relationship, based on date of birth. It's fascinating stuff and I've found myself looking up not only my own relationship but also that of my parents and friends. A MUST HAVE BOOK!!

Mystic Medusa makes astrology fun and accessible, but takes it seriously all at once. Her reviews of the 12 sun signs are frighteningly accurate, yet written in such a delightfully droll, contempary way you can't be offended by even the worst aspects of your sign. It's always fun getting a friend to read up on their sign, and watch them gasp and say "OMG that's ME!" Her work on soul mating is intriguing, and even more scarily accurate than her sun signs. The best thing is that you don't need to have "someone special" in your life to get insight and amusement out of Mystic's soulmating; I found reading about myself and my friends to be endlessly entertaining all on its own. This book is serious astrology, but at last we find an author who knows that taking their subject seriously and having a sense of humour aren't mutually exclusive. This is astrology for the 21st century. Can't wait to see more from Mystic Medusa.
