Book of Love - Maria Shaw's
Introduction
Love makes the world go around! We’re all looking for it. It’s the thing that songs, dreams, and soap operas are made of. There’s no better feeling than to be in love and have the object of your affection love you back!
For some teens, dating comes easily. You probably know a few girls who have boys falling at their feet. And there are guys who never worry about rejection when they ask a girl out. But if you fall into the same category as most teens … you get butterflies in your stomach and are a little afraid to take a chance at romance, then my love guide is for you!
Crushes can be fun. But if you meet someone you’d like to know better, how can you tell what he or she is really like or if you two will even get along? Before you wear your heart on your sleeve, it’s a good thing to do a little digging for more info. This book can help you take what little information you already have and make better choices concerning your love life.
Let’s say that you’re absolutely crazy about a guy you just met but know nothing about. You may assume he thinks a certain way. It’s killing you to find out if he likes you too. Why isn’t he asking you out? Is he shy or just not interested? Don’t make any assumptions or draw any conclusions until you read this book. You may need a little more ammunition to win his heart. All you need to know is his birthday. It’s that simple! Consider Maria Shaw’s Book of Love your own personal love guide. It’s got everything you need to help you make good bets in the game of love. Likewise, if you’re already in a relationship and need to gain a better understanding of where it’s headed, this book can help you with those questions as well.
Your Book of Love is divided into six cool chapters. Using a few of the most popular new age techniques, you’ll find all of the answers you seek under this one cover! The first chapter is about astrology, which is based on a person’s birth information. In making this section easy to understand for cosmic newcomers, we will only focus on a person’s sun sign, which is based on his or her birthday. For advanced astrology students and those who want to learn more, I suggest that you seek out a professional astrologer who will use the rising and moon signs as well as other planetary positions to look at your natal chart. However, this chapter will give you a pretty good idea of an individual’s basic personality and relationship needs.
Look for the compatibility guide, which lists 144 combinations of who’s hot and who’s not. There are suggestions on how to attract the guy or girl of your dreams, as well as ideas for a fabulous first date. Wanna know what a stubborn Taurus is really looking for in love? Would your personality clash with a freedom-loving Sagittarius? Read on for solid and in-depth love advice!
If your love is meant to be, it’ll be written in the stars!
Following the astrology section, get ready to learn about creating love magic through the ancient art of candle burning. Then learn which stones and crystals to use to enhance your love vibe.
There’s even a chapter on wearing certain colors to draw romance into your life. In chapter 5, get a palm reading lesson and discover what a love line
is. By looking at the lines in someone’s palm you can tell a lot about the person’s love life and how he or she deals with matters of the heart. But this section takes you a step further. Just by shaking someone’s hand you’ll know if that person is interested in you (or if he or he is stuck up!). Take a look at your palm and see how many marriages are in your future and how many heartbreaks you’re headed for!
And I’ve got your number when love comes to call! Numerology is the study of numbers, and by learning a few simple formulas in chapter 6, you’ll know exactly when you’ll be lucky in love. Is Mr. Right coming along soon? The boy or girl of your dreams could be only a heartbeat away! Perhaps you’re already in a relationship and want to know if it has staying power. Love number combinations are also featured in this unique chapter that gives you honest, direct insight about the staying power of a current relationship.
Don’t lend this book to anyone. Why? Because you won’t get it back. Friends will want to keep it for themselves as they’ll consult it a lot. Anytime you meet someone you’re attracted to, look up his or her birthday along with yours. If it’s a good match, you may move forward in pursuing the relationship with lots of confidence. If it doesn’t look promising, don’t worry. I believe anyone can make any relationship work, if he or she knows what makes the other person tick.
If you’re a bossy Leo, you may have to be a little more patient with an intense Scorpio. But at least you’ll be forewarned and forearmed. There’ll be relationships that fall effortlessly in your lap and some that end, leaving a broken heart to heal. But there’s something to learn from all relationships. Positive or negative, these are your love lessons. You have the knowledge before you now. You make the choice. Ultimately the decision of who you choose to love is yours. More often than not, your heart decides, not your head. I promise not to say, I told you so.
Have fun!

Your Love Life: It’s Written in the Stars
Just how compatible are you and your latest crush? All you need to know is his or her birthday. The rest is easy. Look up your sign and then scan down the list of compatibility combinations until you come across that special someone’s
sign. In fact, you may want to read all of the signs listed so you know exactly which members of the zodiac are your very best matches. If you find that you and Prince Charming or Cinderella have a lot in common astrologically, your love life could become a beautiful fairy tale!
Read On!
After each compatibility section you will see a number of stars ranging from 1 to 5 beside the five following categories: attraction, compatibility, communication, friendship, and marriage material. Here’s what the categories mean:
Attraction: The romantic chemistry between two signs/people. Do you feel an instant connection with someone or are you easily drawn to a specific person? Do you find someone cute? Adorable? Handsome?
Compatibility: How two signs will generally get along. Do you share the same interests? Feel the same way about things? Are your values similar?
Communication: How two signs respond and relate to one another verbally. Does communication flow easily between the two of you? Are you able to understand and appreciate how the other person expresses himself or herself?
Friendship: The ability for two signs to be friends and enjoy experiences without there being a romantic attraction.
Marriage Material: How likely are two signs to get married one day and have a successful marriage?
Here’s what the stars mean:

The Ram
March 21-April 20
Cool Crushes: Sagittarius, Leo, and Gemini
Opposite Attraction: Libra
Fast Fizzles: Capricorn and Cancer
Best Buds: Sagittarius and Aquarius
Heartbreakers: Scorpio and Virgo
Past Life Connection: Pisces
Lucky in Love Months: August and October
The Ram has the most pioneering spirit of all the sun signs. Being the first sign of the zodiac, Aries expect to be the best at everything, and that includes love! If you’ve got your eye on an Aries, it is most important to remember to keep the chase going. Both guys and girls born under the sign of the Ram love the chase. The harder you are to catch, the more you’ll find Aries clamoring for your affections.
However, once the relationship gets too comfortable and predictable, you’ll quickly slide further down the Aries’ tofen-pole of VIPs. Some of my clients dating Aries learn quickly just how important it is not to give up their own social circle and interests.
But that doesn’t always work. Aries love being the center of their steady’s world. They demand it! So your best bet is to love them for their strengths, directness, optimism, and their need to succeed. It takes a strong, self-assured gal or guy to live in the Aries’ shadow. If you need lots of emotional attention and constant companionship, look to another sign, but I can guarantee that you will not be bored dating a Ram. Life and love with an Aries is nothing short of an adventure!
Aries are also the biggest flirts among the zodiac signs, with Sagittarius coming in a close second. They can easily date more than one person at the same time, and frequently find themselves telling little white lies to cover up a cheatin’ heart.
But when Aries truly fall in love, they fall hard and fast. They can spot people who play mind games, for they play, too! But what they really want in a long-term relationship is a strong partner. Remember, they enjoy a challenge. Their biggest challenge, however, is to compete less and cooperate more.
The Aries Guy
If a red-hot Aries guy has caught your eye, don’t act too anxious! Hide your attraction, but make sure he notices you. He is the biggest flirt in all the zodiac, so there’s likely to be a throng of girls goggling at him, too. You must stand out in the crowd. Your Aries guy likes a challenge as well as a good chase. If you’re too easy, he’ll lose interest. This is a guy who enjoys spontaneity, a bit of competition, and a girlfriend who can hold her own. If you’re weepy, whiny, or indecisive, he’ll lose patience. Be optimistic and ambitious. Let him put some effort into the relationship. He’ll appreciate you more. Once you’ve captured his heart, let him know he’s the best, the most adorable guy you’ve ever met, and everything you’ve ever dreamed of.
The Aries Girl
In a relationship the Aries girl not only needs to know that she’s number one in your life, she needs to feel it. This assertive, no-nonsense gal admires a strong, confident guy. Even though she tends to be a bit bossy and likes to take the lead in love, she’ll lose interest quickly if you give in to all of her whims. She likes a challenge and a strong, assertive guy. No wimps need apply for her affection. Do not take this lady for granted. If she feels neglected, she’ll look elsewhere. She has lots of passion and craves excitement. Keep things lively and fun. And whatever you do, do not even look at another girl… or at least don’t get caught!
Aries with Aries
This could be a decent match if you let each other take turns being the boss. The biggest problem is deciding who’s in charge. These two hotheads will create the quarrels of the century, but can also turn that energy into great passion for each other. They will respect and admire each other, but their competitive nature may backfire and hurt the relationship as time goes on. Aries gals tend to be direct and to the point. Ladies, I must warn you that whatever you do, do not bruise an Aries guy’s ego. Don’t ever tell him he looks scrawny or needs to lift weights. Your Aries can easily get over an inferiority complex in the classroom. However, any jabs at his appearance or athletic abilities will surely put even the most arrogant Aries’ fire out. And whatever you do, don’t let him know how cute your ex-boyfriend is!

Imagine Ewan McGregor and Reese Witherspoon together!
Aries with Taurus
This could be a rewarding short-term relationship (especially for the Aries), but a long-term thing
could spell disaster. Taureans are slow to make big commitments. They think things through. They don’t move quickly and do not favor change. Taureans hold on to their money very tightly. Aries are always throwing caution to the wind, spending their dollar at the drop of a dime. They thrive on change, and the newness of life and love. Many times, Aries think before they act. Taurus’ need for security may not always agree with Aries’ independent attitude.

How about Nick Brown and Kelly Clarkson?
Aries with Gemini
Here are two quick-witted signs that love to gab. Aries love to talk about them-selves. Geminis just love to talk. These are people who despise dead air. Aries and Gemini will explore similar interests: travel, movies, and a big social life. They can talk for hours on end. Even arguing can be fun! Love can grow here. This is one of the better combinations in the zodiac. Both Rams and Twins embrace change. They can’t stand to be bored. These are the couples that go skydiving on their first date, white-water rafting on their second, and anything goes
on their third! So move out of their way and watch what happens. More often than not, their relationship will blossom quickly, grow, and endure.

Consider Heath Ledger and Leelee Sobieski!
Aries with Cancer
The initial attraction between the Ram and the Crab is like a magnetic pull. But watch out. We’re mixing fire and water here. After the first few dates, the whirlwind romance loses momentum and it’s all downhill from there. Cancers want lots of attention and expect to spend all of their free time with their boyfriends or girlfriends. They need a shoulder to cry on and, most importantly, someone they can always depend on to be there.
But Aries have friends expecting them, places to go, and people to see. Cancers then feel rejected, hurt, and abandoned. Aries cannot understand the deep emotional needs of Cancers. This relationship is going to require work, and I mean bard work, if it’s going to last. On the up side, Cancers can provide a strong support system for Aries when they deal with life’s little disappointments. And Aries can show these Moon children the sunny
side of life when they get a little too crabby!

How about Matthew Goode and Liv Tyler?
Aries with Leo
These two signs are born leaders. The Ram and the Lion’s personalities complement one another. Both are confident and ambitious. There could be a bit of competition between them, but it will likely prove invigorating. They’ll need to curb their extravagant spending every weekend. It’s easy for a fire couple to blow their entire allowance on one night out. Aries and Leo enjoy being the center of attention and in the spotlight. These two love hanging out with friends, throwing parties, and playing practical jokes. The only challenge here is that they both want to be number one. If Aries and Leo can put their egos aside and allow their generous spirits to shine through, this can be a dynamite combination.
