Editorial Review of The New Astrology: A Unique Synthesis of the World's Two Great Astrological Systems: The Chinese and Western
Though the practice of astrology is many centuries old, it is only perhaps once in a generation that a thoroughly new, totally original way of looking at the zodiac is discovered. The New Astrology is such a system.
For those convinced that there is nothing new under the sun--or the stars--Suzanne White offers a startling and provocative thesis: There are not 12 but 144 signs of the zodiac, each distinct, each unique, each vital to everyone's quest for self-understanding.
By combining the astrological systems of the traditional Chinese (terrestrial) with that of the Occident (celestial), Suzanne White demonstrates that each of us is governed by two signs. Hence, a Capricorn Tiger is likely to be quite different from a Capricorn Cat, as is a Leo Dog from a Leo Dragon, and so on. This unique blend of Western and Chinese Astrology gives detailed analyses of each of the 144 signs, including individualized sections of love, sex and romance, business, money, careers, home life and compatibility (or lack of it) with other signs.
Already a best-seller in France, The New Astrology is a massive undertaking and the result of more than a decade of research and study of the two systems. It offers insights into not only our own lives, but also those of all who are close to us. Suzanne White's prose is lucid, candid, and suffused with a sense of fun, but The New Astrology is above all a serious tool for self-awareness and understand the rich variety of human nature all around us.

Customer Reviews of The New Astrology: A Unique Synthesis of the World's Two Great Astrological Systems: The Chinese and Western

Review Summary: Very frightening...
Review: I've purchased this book and was convinced from...get this...Facebook! I saw this book in the past, but didn't bother to purchase it. Facebook actually convinced me. So having this book, it was very frightening because of the accurate info. of "why my recent ex broke up with me?". After reading it, I would've purchased it months ago while being in my last relationship. Yes, it might have helped me keep track of the behaviors from both sides, but even when one is making the effort, the other will always be who they are-and that is pretty much mirrored from the book. Very frightening even though it's 2009 when this book is printed years ago.
My friend is currently borrowing it, and she too says the exact thing. Out of most of the Astrology books, this is book I believed to be short, to the point explanation, and most importantly, accuracy! I got hooked and ordered several other books (using my gift card), but this one is probably my favorite of all.

Review Summary: Accurate but brief
Review: The profiles are quite accurate though brief and high level - only a few pages for each East/West profile. As someone experienced with astrology I was looking for more detailed profiles. Recommeded.

Review Summary: excellent transaction
Review: This book was purchased new, at a very resonable price, delivered immediately, and in perfect condition....Again, I am totally happy with Amazon's efficiency and excellent customer service.
We found The New Astrology, Chinese and Western synthesized by Suzanne White, gives personality depictions of each sign that is extraordinary in it's truth. The book is really fun and insightful!
I highly recommend it to anyone who would like to know more personality of anyone else....that's you!!
Sincerely and with Best Regards to Suzanne, Barbara Williams

Review Summary: The Best Handbook on Chinese+Western Astrology
Review: This is the best handbook on Chinese and Western astrology, combined and analyzed together. No two Western signs born in different years are the same, and no two Chinese signs born in different months are the same. The 12 Chinese signs and the 12 Western signs make 144 unique combinations, and this is what this book is about. Easy and fun to leaf though, very helpful, accurate, and a great reference to anyone who is interested in astrology.
