From the Inside Flap:

Dear Reader,
Planets, houses and signs ... oh my! Astrology deals with serious stuff, but learning it can be fun, like a game or an adventure. When you first discovered more about your Sun sign, you probably felt excited, enthused, and satisfied. You understood yourself so much more. You figured out the people in your life. Then you discovered how much more there is to learn. Now you may be wondering whether you can ever master all there is to know about astrology. You can ... and know that you are not alone: everyone feels this way. And there's no rush to learn everything. One of the great things about astrology is that you can work with whatever you know so far.Because astrology is about being human, it needs integration with the real world of human experiences. This book is perfect for that. Instead of consecutive chapters that build on each other, you are free to wander the pages and pick out what appeals to you. And of course, it's an invaluable resource as a dictionary. It's so frustrating to find an article or book that really interests you, only to be shut down by some astrological term you've never been exposed to. You will find knowing the language of astrology to be very empowering.The journey of life has its ups and downs, as we all know. And with The Complete Idiot's Guide Astrology Dictionary, you can navigate some of the mysteries of life. As we started writing this dictionary, we added humor, encouragement, and awareness that mysteries can be solved ... or at least, understood. We hope you may read this book with the knowledge that astrology can be a tool of personal awareness: the more you learn about astrology, the more you will see in the stars. Stargaze your way to personal power!Arlene TognettiStephanie Jourdan, Ph.D.Cathy Jewell
