Driver's Reviews > Sextrology: The Astrology of Sex and the Sexes

As far as astrology, or particularly the astrology of sex and the sexes, goes I found this to be a surprisingly thorough book.
I have read Joanna Martine Woolfolk's hilarious little book Sexual Astrology: A Sign-by-Sign Guide to Your Sensual Stars which suggested such unsavory things as Capricorns generally being turned on by their lover sticking their toe in their armpit. Alas, I still wonder how many Capricorns she may have tried this on and how well the author herself actually reads facial expressions or other reactions to such endeavors. As a Cap, the notion of a toe in my armpit as a part of successful foreplay had me somewhere between gagging and giggling hysterically.
In contrast, Marlene Rathgeb's Sexual Astrology seemed far more structured and very briefly outlined the various pairings between partners, the role their rising sign may play etc.
Now, going back on this book it is divided into chapters or sections about the different genders, gives an overview of what "makes this sign tick," then goes on to elaborate on things such as "Sign & Mind," "Body & Soul," "Sex & Sexuality" and lastly offers insight into the differences between straight and gay sexuality or compatibility with other signs.
We learn about the planetary symbols, sign quadrants, polarity, psychology, the signs in literature and the Bible (okay), elements and archetypes as well as myths involving the signs.
It is, probably unsurprisingly, a very positive book for the most part, not going very deeply into the weaknesses and "problems" of each sign, which is why I found a book like Darkside Zodiac for example rather refreshing and although I often laughed out loud it was for other reasons than why Woolfolk's book cracked me up the way it did, it simply hit very close to home but was never patronizing or offensive.
In any case, Sextrology is - despite its length - a quick read. Now, we must be clear on the fact that astrology is not a science of course but that aside, for as concrete or exact as a book like this can be, it did deliver.
