Astrology Book
Dear Reader:
Welcome to the world of astrology! The concepts are not always easy to understand, but the benefits absolutely outweigh the hard work. In fact, the study of astrology is a little addictive. Youre hooked before you know it! I became curious about astrology when I was fifteen. At that time, my best friend Alexandra started nurturing my curiosity by pushing loads of astrology information onto meliterally. Book after heavy book was set in my lap. Here, here! Look! You see? I told you! We grew breathless with excitement as every suspicion we set out to prove regarding friends and family was right there, on the money, evident as could be.
Alex showed me that nothing in this world happens by coincidence. With our incredible host of information, we were able to turn luck in our favor and succeed in jobs, friendships, and even relationships. Some say astrology is not a science, but nothing could be further from the truth. Just remember: Life is not like a fortune cookie. You cant just crack it open and find your destiny laid out before you. You have to work for it. So, why not start now? Turn the page!
