About the author
Hello, I’m Linda.
I was a teenager when my grandfather gave me a book on astrology. I doubt he knew what he was starting. There were no apps then and no websites. If you wanted to see a birth chart, you drew it yourself, with a pencil, a ruler and pages of tables. So that is what I did, chart after chart, by hand.
In the early 1990s it became my profession, and it has been my work ever since. In more than thirty years I have read charts for people at every kind of turning point: a retirement, a loss, a new love, a birthday with a zero in it.
Those years taught me something the textbooks leave out. Astrology gets better as you get older. At twenty-five, a chart is a set of promises. At sixty, it is a story you can check against your own life, and that is when it becomes truly useful.
Yet almost everything written about the signs assumes the reader is young. So I wrote the books I always wished I could hand to people: plain, practical, and written for the life you are living now.
