How do you get started with atrology

Beyond knowing that I'm a Gemini (and not really knowing what that means) I really don't know anything about astrology.

What's a good resource for getting some more specific information about it?

I didn't even know there were such things as birth charts till I wandered into this subforum.

Hi,

Start with something simple. Linda Goodman's Sun Signs will give you a less demanding introduction to modern views of the Signs. It's not a book that I would recommend as a serious starting point but for someone who knows very little and wants to know more, it's a fair starting point.

After that Astrology for Dummies or Astrology for Idiots, or something similar will bring you to the idea of what a chart is, how to create one and how to make a stab at reading it. They also hint at how to make predictions.

You might also find the following parallel thread interesting, as it's also started by a newbie and it's developing into a good resource. Don't be afraid to join in with questions. We all have to start somewhere so asking what may appear to be a 'daft' question shouldn't be avoided. It helps you learn!

You will also find in there a reference to our Resources section:

And don't be afraid to ask questions generally. Just post and we'll respond.
