Girlfriend, You Are the Best: A Fable for Our Times Surviving Saturn's Return: Essential Lessons for Overcoming the Most Tumultuous Time of Your Life by Sherene Schostak, M.A. & Stefanie Iris Weiss, M.A. If you have experienced the joy (ugh) of turning 30, you know it can be a very difficult time. For those of you with 30 looming, do you wish there was some higher learning that could make it a little easier? The authors of this book have joined forces to offer a psychological and astrological guide to this major milestone. So, having been through this process a few years ago, I thought I'd put the Libra (my sign) section to the test.... I was kind of fascinated reading through the section. Besides feeling it was very "on target" I was wishing I had it handy a few years ago. One revelation was that I need to stop being "mrs nice gal" and confront those people in my life who were treating me badly. Perhaps if I had this advice earlier, it would have saved me some painful lessons. Overall, this guide is a handy companion for the big three-o. You can also visit the companion website here.
