Beyond Mars and Venus


Book Description

The author of the most well-known and trusted relationship book of all time returns with an updated guide for today's generation. Two decades ago, Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus revolutionized the way we thought about love and partnership. John Gray's work has helped countless readers improve and even save their relationships. But as society evolves, relationships do, too. It's time to move beyond Mars and Venus, toward a new relationship model for modern couples. Today, men and women are no longer trapped by rigid societal roles. Now more than ever, we have the freedom to be our authentic selves. Women can access their masculine side, and men can embrace their feminine side. This new freedom is a good thing, but it also brings new challenges. Men and women still need the right tools and skills to help build stronger relation- ships. While previous generations sought "role mate" relationships, based on the more rigid gender roles of the time, today's couples need a new kind of relationship: a "soul mate" relationship. These more emotionally satisfying relationships require a deeper understanding of our partners' individual needs. In Beyond Mars and Venus, Gray teaches you how to strengthen your bond and grow in love together, so you and your loved one can meet each other's needs in the best way possible, bringing you lasting happiness and a fulfilling partnership.




Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus


Book Description

Popular marriage counselor and seminar leader John Gray provides a unique, practical and proven way for men and women to communicate and relate better by acknowledging the differences between them. Once upon a time Martians and Venusians met, fell in love, and had happy relationships together because they respected and accepted their differences. Then they came to earth and amnesia set in: they forgot they were from different planets. Using this metaphor to illustrate the commonly occurring conflicts between men and women, Gray explains how these differences can come between the sexes and prohibit mutually fulfilling loving relationships. Based on years of successful counseling of couples, he gives advice on how to counteract these differences in communication styles, emotional needs and modes of behavior to promote a greater understanding between individual partners. Gray shows how men and women react differently in conversation and how their relationships are affected by male intimacy cycles ("get close", "back off"), and female self-esteem fluctuations ("I'm okay", "I'm not okay"). He encourages readers to accept the other gender's particular way of expressing love, and helps men and women learn how to fulfill each other's emotional needs. With practical suggestions on how to reduce conflict, crucial information on how to interpret a partner's behavior and methods for preventing emotional "trash from the past" from invading new relationships, Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus is a valuable tool for couples who want to develop deeper and more satisfying relationships with their partners.

Mars and Sex


Book Description

The Edgar award-winning author and astrologer unlocks the mystery of sexual compatibility, energy, and happiness. In Mars and Sex, renowned astrologer and author Trish MacGregor will help even the most sexually reticent awaken their capacity for intimacy and love. What turns you on? What are you looking for in a partner? Great sex or great romance or a combination of the two? Each of us has a sexual blueprint that describes our strengths and insecurities, our emotional investment in sex, whether we tend toward monogamy or variety, possessiveness or detachment, and what we're looking for in a partner. In Mars and Sex, Trish MacGregor guides you in exploring your sexuality according to the potential promised in the combined energies of your sun sign and the sign that Mars was in when you were born. As Freud said, "Sex is everything...who we are in bed is who we are in life." But even Freud would be astonished at how our sexual blueprint plays out in daily life. Our sexuality manifests itself in our hobbies, creative interests, politics, and our worldview. It influences the products we buy, the movies we see, the books we read. It lies at the heart of who we are as individuals and as a culture. And yet most of us are clueless about those deeper forces inside ourselves. We stumble around in the dark, hoping that we will find the right sexual or romantic partner or some combination of the two, but all too often we make the wrong choices. The secret of sexual and romantic compatibility lies in the 144 combinations of the Sun and Mars—your sexual blueprint. Once you understand it, fulfillment in the bedroom—and in life—is just a heartbeat away.
