I bought the book while traveling across the VS in an indian tradingpost in Arizona. It was my first contact with Native American Astology and the Totems. These animal totems can be compared with the western astrology signs. The book it self tells you to what animal totem you belong and what the trades of these totems are. Specalised in general, love, career, vitality and adge. I was suprised about the accuracy of these trades not only for me but also for a lot of people in my family. It is easy to read and it is a lot of fun. I have my own business and this year I'll send this book to all of me relations.

Please don't waste your time.

As a student of Native American Astrology as taught to me by my Medicine Elders for the last decade or more I was quite excited to see this book offered and so I bought it as a research project. I wish I had not wasted my money, and if I could have given it '0 stars' I would have done so.
There is no credibility offered by the author or the publisher as to where the information is acquired. Nor is there anything offered as to which of the many Native American Nations this method of astrology is ascribed. This book simply blankets every nation with the same 'Eagle means this, Otter means that'. Much of it is straight out of Sun Bear's _Medicine Wheel_. More of it disagrees with everything I have been taught or found in my research. I am open to the possibility that some Nation somewhere might use what is in this book as a basis for their astrological system, I rather doubt it.
If I needed any more confirmation that this book was a 'get rich quick' publication, I believe the statements in the cover notes '...translated from the German... for entertainment purposes only...' say it all.
Please, save your time and your money. There are much better books out there.

This book is uncanny in the way that the information is very accurate. I was surprised by this when I read it at a friend's house. So much so that I went to Amazon right away, and bought it. Great book!
