Praise: "Reading about yourself in a good Venus book (something even seasoned astrologers love to do) should feel both pleasurable and startling--as though the author had been reading the diary of your secret thoughts.

Jessica Shepherd has such a gift, seeming to know from the inside out just how it feels to have each Venus--and how it feels be in a relationship with each Venus sign. A wise and soulful coach, Jessica lights the way towards each sign''s most evolved (and happiest) expression. Her prose is fresh, supple and seductive, as though it was Venus herself who''d been doing the typing."--Dana Gerhardt, astrologer "Jessica Shepherd''s Venus Signs is clearly channeling straight from Love Central. A gentle, seductive smooch from Venus herself, with knowledge only she could know, the 12 faces of the Goddesses are exposed with utter purity and passion. If someone can introduce you to yourself, then miracles follow. Jessica left me feeling known, understood, appreciated and loved, just what you''d expect to find in a real cosmic caress from Venus herself. This is the ultimate self-worth booster.

Loved it!"--Neil D. Paris, author of Surfing Your Solar Cycles "During Greek Mythology class in high school, I secretly yearned to transform into Aphrodite--sensual, sexy, desirous, and nobody''s fool (except for love). She was off limits to my white Wonderbread Norwegian Lutheran self, as were nearly all of the Venus traits so brilliantly explored by Jessica. In the context of astrology, Jessica encourages us to embrace our "inner Venus," according to our sign, bringing forth the sensual feminine, artistic vixen, relationship artist that swirls inside, waiting. As I read her book, I had to wonder exactly what I''ve been waiting for? Maybe this book!"--Cyndi Dale author of The Subtle Body "Venus Signs will get you in touch with what generates and sustains your pleasure and happiness, both in lifestyle and in relationships. Through her keen insights, Jessica Shepherd is a distiller and blender of the true nature of our love desires and inclinations. By defining the influence of Venus through the looking glass of the Zodiac, Jessica sheds light on how the essential qualities of love and attraction are best fulfilled within us and within those whom we love and treasure."--Annie Bones, author of Celestial Forecaster "Jessica Shepherd has done it again.

In Venus Signs, she writes in a way that makes the astrological neophyte feel welcome. Better, she does that without ever pandering or assuming such a person to be a ninny. Miraculously, there''s also wise wolf hiding in the lamb''s clothing--the advanced counseling astrologer can also learn some new tricks from this fine book''s unpretentious wisdom and simple humanity. I know I did myself! I heartily recommend Venus Signs to anyone who loves astrology--or, simply, to anyone who loves at all."--Steven Forrest, author of The Inner Sky "Jessica has a gift for weaving together many intricate details into a powerful archetypal synthesis that is accessible and deep."--Sherene Vismaya Schostak, author of Surviving Saturn Return.
