Product Description:
Aren't Cancerians fed up with being the mothers of the universe? Don't Leos become weary of being told they're just fun-loving party animals? Does a girl--or boy--ever get to flash their mean streak? Do they ever--in Darkside Zodiac, the book that exposes the hidden underside of the stars, and how they affect the dark side of everyone.
The zodiac definitely has a dark side that influences the nasty in every one under every sign:
When Scorpios shed their Ms. Manners persona out pops a sex-mad control freak.
Capricorns are really bean-counting misanthropes.
Aries are head banging psychos.
Aquarians can't wait to be beamed back to the mothership.
Darkside Zodiac covers personalities, rising sign, ruling planet, Moon, qualities, and elements. It also details lifestyle choices (jobs, vacations, fashion, interior design, partners) all from a gripping, yet rarely discussed perspective.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Laugh Out Loud, and Insightful
If you find astrology interesting, definitely get this book; it's a wonderful antidote to the sunny, upbeat presentations you find elsewhere, reminding us that each sign has negative tendencies too (except Scorpios, where the all encompassing quest for power and control is its own dark side). Every fellow Piscean I have shared the book with nods knowingly at the description of our tendency to anoint a "new best friend" when the wind blows, my Aquarian friends were surprised that someone noticed that ...

Rating: - Fun read, some accuracy some hard to understand
A good friend of mine got me this book for Christmas, I love it, it's a fun read. It's pretty insightful, at the same time, some of the deep metaphor is really hard to understand, the author is kind of speaking in her own languge. Metaphor is fun, but the author took it a bit far without explaining in "normal" languge at times.
The moon sign look up chart in the back did not work for mine for some reason, it worked for my bro's. I should email the arthor about that one.
Rating: - GENIUS!
This book provides hilarious insight into the darkest pits of the twelve sun signs. As depressing as that may sound, the book is really quite hilarious. Brilliant, in fact. It has given me many gut-bustingly funny hours through reading it to people.
The funniest part is, most people deny outright that they are anything like the book says, when they (and everyone else) knows that they are. I, for one, don't mind saying that I am a shiftless Pisces.
Overall, this book is ... Read More
Rating: - Amazingly Accurate & Entertaining
This is my all time favorite astrology book dealing with the negative side of the signs. The set up with colorful pages makes it a pleasure to read. The best part is that the book brings up planetary combinations such as Sun in Gemini/Venus in Leo which takes it a step further than most "dark side" astrology books that exclusively focus on the sun sign. Great bonus sections such as "What kind of Criminal are You?". I can also recommend the corresponding book for Chinese Signs- "Snarling Tiger, Dirty ... Read More
Rating:  - Accurate, but save your money and buy better.
If you are familiar with Stella Hyde's writing, you will know why I said accurate, but save your money. If you are not familiar, please know that she writes words but does not say anything. The accurate parts are the parts that can be understood. I do not know who taught this woman English, but it cannot be someone who was alive in the past 100 years.
Her other book, Snarling Tiger, Hidden Dragon was even worse! If you are a serious student of Astrology, go to an actual store and browse ... Read More
