Discover your astrological sign through the lens of pop culture, with this fun, gifty guide from TikTok astrologer and W Magazine columnist Cole Prots

Have you ever wondered why Aries are the way they are? Or which astrological sign is most likely to be the ""final girl"" in a horror film? Perhaps you’re wondering if your sign is more pop, pop rock, funk, or classical?

Astrology expert Cole Prots, known to millions as @jkitscole for his witty and wacky astrology videos, has all of the answers. In his first book, he takes readers on a journey of astrological discovery through a new lens: pop culture.

The Signs and the Stars outlines the key principles of astrology, then builds on that understanding with examinations of the astrological signs in film, TV, and music. Cole helps you discover which iconic rom-com movie represents you, how likely your sign is to go on Love Island to find love, and more, then sends you off with words of advice to help you transform every area of your life.
