Interesting. Caught my attention right away. Wasn’t a “story” of someone’s view on a certain sign (thats where the comments and forum come in). Just facts and wits.

* How long did it take for you to “catch on”?

A while.

* How long did it take for you to become a fan (if you are one)?

Instantly once I caught on.

* What’s confusing about the site navigation, and how can I improve it?

Just the ads everywhere. It’s a bit clusttered.

* Would it help if I had some graphic to alert readers to the level of astrological complexity in different posts, like “Beginner,” “Intermediate,” “Advanced”?

No, I don’t think so.

The blog explaining comprehensibly human relationships, with great insight and a dab of “psychology for dummies”, also pointing to the astrological indicators in a very unobtrusive manner.
I thought that it was written in a style that is attractive to both – people who are simply interested in understanding people, as well as die-hard astrology enthusiasts.
There’s also that tiny detail that got my devotion – patience and grace in handling questions like “how do I seduce married (…)”.
I admire it, because I don’t think I could ever even pretend to be that objective (and avoid responding with caps lock).
2. Hm.. Immediately?
3. Since the very first post I read.
4. The only problem is that it’s highly detailed. Everything is already here, but because of complexity it may take some time to get used to it.
I was also thinking about labels to describe different types of posts. Something to differentiate between advices in concrete situations from more general information (like posts about planets in signs and aspects in natal charts).
Though, maybe it’d only make the navigation even more difficult to comprehend.
5. Yep, definitely.

Recently I’ve been having problems with posting comments, so I hope this one will appear!
