Since Venus the planet of love and beauty  rules Taurus and I have 5 planets in Taurus in my 7th house of marriage and partnerships, I want to mention some great books about relationships.  These books are mostly geared towards relationships between men and women.<\/p>\n<p>The first book I want to mention is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/0738719641\/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=katpfesartgal-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=0738719641\">A Love Alchemist&#8217;s Notebook: Magical Secrets for Drawing Your True Love into Your Life<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=katpfesartgal-20&#038;l=as2&#038;o=1&#038;a=0738719641\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" style=\"border:none !important; margin:0px !important;\" \/> by Jessica Shepherd. I was shocked,delighted and relieved to finally find this book.  This book is the REAL DEAL as it helps  the reader on their  journey to  finding true love.  I have read so many crappy self help  books targeting desperate women wanting a male loaded with pure bullshit advice.  Forget  any other book you&#8217;ve read and buy this book right now! Love is a journey and sometimes the road is rocky. It is a journey that involves self reflection and honesty.  Bottom line, love is an inside job. Ms. Shepherd discusses how so many women  just accept whatever male crosses their path for a long term relationship and in many cases marriage.  Ultimately  accepting  whatever crosses your path ends up  hurting the woman.  Love is not a  consolation prize.  Relationships are sacred.  I personally know of several women  who have entered into relationships with men  because of convenience.  Sadly, these women had low self esteem and really felt like they didn&#8217;t deserve to have someone they really liked.  Several  of these women  experience  abuse, cheating or major disappointment.  Ms. Shepherd lays out the groundwork  to change one&#8217;s belief and patterns concerning relationships and attraction.   I  have received a fortune  (from a fortune cookie)  on several occasions which reads  &#8221; Our first and last love is self love&#8221;. So True. So True.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s say you are a single woman ( working on self) and of course dating men. This next book<br \/>\nis a wonderful book for the  woman who  knows a little bit  about astrology and isn&#8217;t quite  sure about the man she is dating.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/0060887281\/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=katpfesartgal-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=0060887281\">He&#8217;s Just Not in the Stars: Wicked Astrology and Uncensored Advice for Getting the (Almost) Perfect Guy<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=katpfesartgal-20&#038;l=as2&#038;o=1&#038;a=0060887281\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" style=\"border:none !important; margin:0px !important;\" \/> by Jenni Kosarin is a wonderful book for the woman who is dating or looking for love. If you understand the basic planets and  can figure out  where the man you&#8217;re dating has his Sun (easy) and Venus in his chart, you will learn the way he operates and how he views women.I really do believe this book will help women avoid Mr. Wrong.  <\/p>\n<p>The last book I want to mention is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/143922689X\/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=katpfesartgal-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=143922689X\">North Node Astrology: Rediscovering Your Life Direction and Soul Purpose<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=katpfesartgal-20&#038;l=as2&#038;o=1&#038;a=143922689X\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" style=\"border:none !important; margin:0px !important;\" \/> by Elizabeth Spring M.A.  I discovered Ms. Spring on the internet when I was searching for information on Plutonian based relationships ( see my poem &#8220;GROUNDHOG DAY&#8221; in a previous blog for that relationship).  Ms. Spring  has helped me  understand my problematic Plutonian relationship.  I finally bought this book on North Nodes which  makes my situation crystal clear ( at least to me).  This book is for the person who has studied astrology and has a basic understanding of their own astrological chart.  This is a great book which explores past lives and karmic relationships.  <\/p>\n<p>***************************************************************************************<br \/>\nSince I&#8217;m on the  subject of books.  Here are  two more  of my  favorite books.  One is a  children&#8217;s book <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B000LXZNHQ\/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=katpfesartgal-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B000LXZNHQ\">The Thank-You Book<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=katpfesartgal-20&#038;l=as2&#038;o=1&#038;a=B000LXZNHQ\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" style=\"border:none !important; margin:0px !important;\" \/> by Francoise.  I found this book in a used  bookstore many years ago.  Francoise ( whose full name  is Francoise Seignobosc) wrote and illustrated  a number of  books that are for both  children and adults.  THE THANK YOU BOOK is the original  book about gratitude. New Age authors are all now scrambling to write and publish books about the  subject of being grateful.  You only need this book.  This is the kind of book anyone of any age can enjoy.  <\/p>\n<p>The last book I&#8217;m going to mention is another one of my most treasured possessions. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B0006BUL66\/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=katpfesartgal-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B0006BUL66\">Leaves in the Sun<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=katpfesartgal-20&#038;l=as2&#038;o=1&#038;a=B0006BUL66\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" style=\"border:none !important; margin:0px !important;\" \/> by Yuki was written in 1971 by a young Japanese man named Yuki. The book goes beyond Haiku.  With it&#8217;s simple line drawings,this book expresses longing,loneliness,hope,joy and love.  This book is romantic without being sappy.  It reminds me of a good Beatles song you listen to over and over and never get tired of hearing.  This book makes my heart soar every time I read it. Both  these books make great presents to loved ones of any age or sex.<\/p>\n<p>Stay Tuned  for ALL THINGS TAURUS PART THREE<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>April 10. 2012 My blog continues with a focus on Taurus related stuff.
