About the Author
Judith Bennett was completing Sex Signs only days before she died in the tragic crash at O'Hare airport, on her way to the American Booksellers Association to speak about the book. Since that time, several of her closest friends and colleagues-people dedicated to Judith's work over the years-have gathered together to finish writing Sex Signs in the way that she would have wanted: with dignity, devotion, and above all, love.

So right on its scary
This book is a must for any woman. It gives you tremendous insight into your own personality. What really convinced me is the little details that she gets into, stuff that is just so part of you, you don't even think about it until you read it as a characteristic of your sign. This should also be required reading for the man in your life if he is to understand you as well! This book gives you insight into many aspects of your life as well as alternative scenarios that I found amusing, such as the same sex relationship. If you want to learn a little about yourself, buy this book! You won't be disappointed!

Astonishingly True !
I do not understand how exactly Astrology works, and I am more of a scientist, but this book which combines Psychology and Astrology provides the most true to life insight into the woman's psyche that I know of. All my relationships are testimony that Judith Bennett really knows what she is talking about. I greatly recommend this book to any man who wants to learn a little bit more about women, I recommend it to any man who really cares about the relationship with the woman he is involved with. It never failed me !
A good read, but hardly perfection
I enjoyed Ms. Bennett's writing style and I was very impressed with her ability to concisely describe the behaviors of each sign. Truthfully, I found the book very difficult to put down. However, her brand of psychology was less than inspiring.
I was also extremely disappointed when she wrote, "the Leo woman is almost always divorced as a result of failed expectations or of an incomplete awareness of her own behavior and needs. A seperation or divorce can teach her most of what she needs to know in order to build another, happier relationship." I found that to be a great example of what goes wrong when astrology is mixed with psychology. The perpective ends up being that if the female is just readjusted her relationships will work out. If she had replaced Leo with people she would have ended up with a statement that was just as likely to be true as most people are divorced because of a lack of self knownledge an inability to get their needs met with their partner.
In my own experiance I have not seen this as a the cause for the Leo females relationship problems. In fact, I know many examples of Leo women (and no I am not a Leo) who suffered or are suffering badly in their relationships because they are uncomfortable expressing their own qualities for fear that are unacceptable in a woman. I can think of one case of a Sun/Moon/Ascendent in Leo female who refuses to leave her husband after his repeated beatings because she thinks it is too selfish.
I think in the end she makes certain types of women feel guilty for expressing their own characterists. Leo women have a vivaciousness that is extremely attractive, and they are not more at fault for failures in their marriage than the females of any other sign whom Ms. Bennett seems to have had more compassion for. I would recommend A Knot In Time along with this book because by itself it does not suffice as a good source of female psychology.
Another problem with this book is that the author's explaination for all female sexual problems is that they are repressing their anger. Women maybe experiancing an inablity to orgasm for any number of reasons least of all repressed anger. Many medical conditions can cause problems with orgasming, not to mention that many women enjoy sex thoroughly and never orgasm. They are not all angry.
