The New Astrology: A Unique Synthesis of the World's Two Great Astrological Systems: The Chinese and Western Paperback – April 15, 1988
Purchase options and add-ons
Though the practice of astrology is many centuries old, it is only perhaps once in a generation that a thoroughly new, totally original way of looking at the zodiac is discovered. The New Astrology is such a system.
For those convinced that there is nothing new under the sun--or the stars--Suzanne White offers a startling and provocative thesis: There are not 12 but 144 signs of the zodiac, each distinct, each unique, each vital to everyone's quest for self-understanding.
By combining the astrological systems of the traditional Chinese (terrestrial) with that of the Occident (celestial), Suzanne White demonstrates that each of us is governed by two signs. Hence, a Capricorn Tiger is likely to be quite different from a Capricorn Cat, as is a Leo Dog from a Leo Dragon, and so on. This unique blend of Western and Chinese Astrology gives detailed analyses of each of the 144 signs, including individualized sections of love, sex and romance, business, money, careers, home life and compatibility (or lack of it) with other signs.
Already a best-seller in France, The New Astrology is a massive undertaking and the result of more than a decade of research and study of the two systems. It offers insights into not only our own lives, but also those of all who are close to us. Suzanne White's prose is lucid, candid, and suffused with a sense of fun, but The New Astrology is above all a serious tool for self-awareness and understand the rich variety of human nature all around us.

• A brilliant collection of Chinese and Western Astrology like no other. Amazing reads of entwined characters so astutely depicted by the brilliant author Suzanne White ~ 👏👏👏 I have both the original and the latest publication!
White does a great job at her craft. I would say she got 80% of me right and coincendentally about that margin of error for my friends who read the book. She seems to get 80% right, of 80% of my friends. If you took into account, a lacking on the hour you were born. This girl would be scary good.

The author just nails the 144 profiles, and I don't know how she does it. I've had the hard copy for decades and refer to it constantly. It's helped me understand my family, friends & co-workers.
The character insights have given me understanding and peace in coming to see why some people do what they do. I use the information all the time to know those in my life better, and also to be circumspect about who I choose to invite into my life and how to handle them.

I have since given this as a gift to friends - it's a great conversation starter for sure.
