This Week on Planet Waves FM Deep Background: It's Not What You Think Dear Friend and Listener: America loves an outlaw. That might explain why 43 percent of the voting population is supporting a candidate who had admitted to tax evasion and sexual assault. But what explains that? How do we make sense of that in our supposedly informed and enlightened times?
In tonight's recorded edition of Planet Waves FM [play episode here], I take these questions slowly, looking at the Uranus-Eris cycle and this weekend's Full Moon aligned with the era-defining conjunction. I explore the impact of all broadcast media and the internet on the self-concept that is allowing this madness to perpetuate. I go from self-concept to self, and make contact with the idea that who we are inherently is more powerful than any effect any media might create in our minds. My musical guest is Radiohead, in honor of Libra and of their being the only recording artists I can think of strong enough to sustain the current weight of the world, and its beauty and our transformational moment.

It's All In the Houses
Full Class Recording Now Available"That was a rich, rewarding experience, Eric, Amy, et al. In particular, the explanation of intercepted houses provided a long aha moment. I, too, am looking forward to the next class."Dear Friend and Reader: Were you waiting to hear what people thought about Eric's epic four-hour class on the houses before committing to buying the recording? Wait no longer!
"Warm thanks for a spectral learning experience. I really love and admire Eric's ability to deliver deeply insightful explanations." -- Ann Roddy, It's All in the Houses participant For only $49 (less than half the full cost of attending the class live), you'll receive online access to the downloadable, re-playable audio in two parts, an introductory video, illustration charts and a webpage of class notes, plus links to additional resources. "Thanks again for this booster rocket on the houses. I am relieved to know I can stop thinking about those house rulerships (Mars rules the first, etc.), which never made sense to me, and focus more on the rulers of the house cusps. So helpful. Also helpful was the advice to keep it real -- look at mundane examples -- not get so abstract, or always so psychological, as a way of learning more and of using the tools in a more practical way." -- Cheryl Corson, It's All in the Houses participant I invite you to build your foundation of astrological knowledge through the recording and generous resources for It's All In the Houses with Eric Francis -- a wealth of practical, accessible information offered in a way that beginners and more experienced students of astrology alike can engage with -- and begin applying right away. Yours & truly,  Amanda Painter Planet Waves Astrology Editor P.S. If you have any questions about the class recording or the materials, please write to Amy and Gale at cs@planetwaves.net.
"Eric, as always, your reading is spot on and validates what I am experiencing in life at this time. The sheer acknowledgment that, as a Libra, I need balance, beauty and aesthetics in my life to make me tick on -- balanced -- in my day-to-day endeavors, and consequently some very huge endeavors for the year, was just what I needed to keep going." -- Ginger Aarons, responding to the 2016-17 Libra ReadingDear Friend and Reader: If you love someone with a Libra Sun or Libra rising, you can give them instant access to the two audio segments of their 2016-17 Libra Birthday Reading today.
This reading looks ahead into the next 12 months of Libra's solar year, but the Sun will be in Libra only for another 11 days. And before it moves on to Scorpio, we'll experience an Aries Full Moon like no other -- conjunct Uranus and Eris, and opposite the Libra Sun. Eric has been watching the chart for this weekend closely in terms of political and social surprises -- but it will likely have profound personal meaning for anyone with strong Libra or Aries placements, too, as he's been describing in Planet Waves. In fact, all the cardinal signs will be plugged into this event. "Thanks very much for these readings. I appreciate your insights and reflections on getting off the grid and using creativity and art as a path. I was also surprised to hear about Capricorn reducing things to minimal needs -- I hadn't heard that before." -- Marita, commenting on the 2016-17 Libra Reading Whether you order the Libra Birthday Reading for yourself or as a gift, the timing could not be more charged up. (New to Eric's readings? Listen to last year's Libra reading here, on us, for an in-depth experience.) Yours & truly, Amanda Painter Planet Waves Astrology Editor  This Week on Planet Waves
