Queer Astrology for Women
Should you worship the feet of your Pisces lover, or would the classic lesbian backrub be more arousing? Does the Sapphic Sagittarius really love you, or will she drop you for voracious Virgo? Jill Dearman's new astrological guide to lesbian love (she's also penned acompanion volume for men) promises to enlighten readers about the true nature and desires of the lovely women in our lives. Leo likes a luxurious coupling, for instance, while Aries will do it anywhere. Sagittarius is into contorted sexual postures. Capricorn is obsessed with work. In the second half of the book, Dearman describes the pleasures and pitfalls of each astrological pairing, from the "body talk" when Aries meets Aries to the "cheating hearts" of a double-Pisces affair. Plotting your love life by the stars seems like high-risk behavior, but maybe that's the cynical Scorpio in me talking.--Regina Marler
