"I believe in that step of not just making revolutionary music but making it in a way that challenges the system, Especially in this day and age when the tools for producing and distributing are more and more accessible to the average Joe and Josephine. The possibility of emancipation and control and independence is so much greater now."

October 2017 Monthly Horoscope for Libra by Eric Francis
For the past 12 months, Jupiter has been in your sign, revealing the many possibilities of your life. You may have also experienced certain problems or issues being magnified, though now at least you can see in detail what they are, and what you might do about them. In the first of many new developments influencing you during the coming 12 months, Jupiter enters your neighboring sign Scorpio, which means that it's time to invest in yourself, your goals and your vision for your life. It's a message that self-esteem is the basis of all success in the world, in your relationships with others, and in your sense of belonging on the planet. This is the first of many upcoming changes directly influencing your sign. To name two others: later this year, Saturn enters Capricorn, one of the most important transits that you can experience, representing an extended phase of shoring up your foundations, cleaning your roots and resolving long-enduring problems. Then Chiron enters your house of relationships, where it will stay for about nine years. This will emphasize healing processes within partnerships of all kinds. The upshot of these transits is that -- whether immediately or over the long haul -- you will be transforming all of the most significant facets of your existence. Your awareness will be called where it truly matters. You will learn to stand on your own, which is the prerequisite for freedom.

If Your Birthday is Sept. 23
(The Day of the Breakthrough) | Birthday Readings: Virgo | Libra | Others
Stand back and look out at the world. Know that, on some level, everything you see is related to your responses to it. This is a challenging lesson for many people, who would feel better if everything was 'out there' rather than 'in here'. You, though, are ready to take a more sincere approach to what is in truth a spiritual matter. As you change the world will change.

Written in the Planets
We're in the midst of a bunch of inner planet sign changes. This might be considered a preview of the outer planet changes starting later in the year; over the next several months, Jupiter, Saturn, Chiron and Uranus will all enter new signs. Watch carefully as this week unfolds, and see what patterns you pick up: there could be some valuable clues in terms of where you might direct your energies.

Planet Waves
In the Shadow of the Moon, the exciting 2017 Midyear Reading by Eric Francis, is now published. Although the video readings for all 12 signs use the Great American Eclipse of Aug. 21 as a starting point, Eric develops the themes through some of the most important astrological events you'll encounter in the remainder of 2017 and beyond. We'll be increasing the price again very soon, so don't hesitate to order your copy here. You can also now choose your individual signs here.

If Today is Your Birthday
Stand back and look out at the world. Know that, on some level, everything you see is related to your responses to it.

You share a birthday with Mickey Rooney, Ray Charles and Bruce Springsteen.

Leo, Virgo Birthday Readings Complete

Dear Friend of Planet Waves:

If what we're seeing in the wake of the Aug. 21 total solar eclipse is any indication of how influential it was, astrology is alive and kicking in your personal world. I've spent the last couple of days finishing the Leo and Virgo birthday readings, and I want you to know they're available.

They are also somewhat late, though this has been a work ethic issue: I don't do this kind of sensitive reading when I'm in any way stressed, unrested, or distracted. That time finally arrived Friday and Saturday, and these readings are now available.

Planet Waves
You may view the glyph key here.
We are in the midst of extraordinary astrology: we're living in the wake of so much that's happened, so much that is happening now, and so much coming up. You need all the information you can get. 

Having access to sensitive and accurate astrological keys is a direct advantage. You know the psychic weather when you know the astrology. I work in both the personal and the transpersonal, describing certain inner developments in your life, as well as developments in the world around you -- and then I describe where the two meet.

I work in human language, using astro-lingo only as necessary. My message is designed to be both positive and informative: while I'm a pretty good astrologer, I am an even better motivational speaker. I believe in your potential, and I am honored and happy to offer you the keys to realizing your personal gifts.

We are, as well, living through extraordinarily trying times. It's not easy to be alive right now, but if you can keep your awareness up, and stay a little bit above the fray, and look toward the future, these are indeed brilliant and challenging and amazing times to engage fully with life.

Because these readings are being delivered late, we're going to keep the pre-order price of $44 for a while. You may get your Leo reading here, or your Virgo reading here. These are especially poignant for your rising sign, as my emphasis is on the houses.

Both include original new music by Vision Quest. You may listen to our live stream here.

We are also offering pre-order on the Libra reading, which I reckon will be done pretty soon -- probably within a few days after the equinox.

Speaking of, I mention in Virgo that I've recently published an article in The Mountain Astrologer called It's All in the Houses. This is an informative, easy-to-follow article that will open up your astrological thinking. The way that I can do these readings for you so accurately is that I understand the houses, or at least I sincerely strive to. I explain how that works in the article, which is free to anyone. If you want to take this deeper, we do offer a class by the same name.

Thank you for being a customer of Planet Waves, and for doing your part to make the world a friendlier, warmer and more intelligent place.

With love, your astrologer,

P.S. If you missed In the Shadow of the Moon, you may access all 12 signs here, or single serving signs here.

Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) -- If you take the space and time to meditate, you will discover a world within yourself.

Take some time today, pause, and listen in silence.
Your 2017-18 Leo Birthday Reading by Eric is now complete and available for instant access. This is a seminal year for Leo Sun, rising and Moon, especially with the recent powerful solar eclipse in your sign. Make this dynamic energy work for you -- order your reading today.

Libra
Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) -- Over the next 36 hours, the Sun in your sign makes a conjunction to the meaningful asteroid Vesta – who stands for devotion, dedication and service. During this time, notice what matters to you. Notice where you offer yourself, and what you’re happy to give up for the sake of others.

Scorpio
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) -- The truth of who you are is running a bit ahead of how people perceive you. However, you tend to be a bit ahead of the times as a way of life. You can look honestly at any way you’re still invested in the past, and ask if that really supports your goals. Notice the subtle points.

Sagittarius
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) -- Bring your attention back to helping a friend, or some organization whose work you value. Give this as much time as you need to get the job done well. See if you can get a few other people involved; your ability to recruit others to the cause is rather charmed at the moment.

Capricorn
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) -- One of the keys to your potentially stellar success over the next few weeks will be making room for the right thing to happen. That means first clearing what does not need to be there out of the way. Then you hold open time, emotional bandwidth and physical space, and stand back a little.

Aquarius
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Remember that nobody can actually judge you, even if you perceive that they’re doing so. Others may have an opinion, though that’s far from actual judgment. It’s up to you to take an open-minded view of your life, and to honor your spiritual source, whomever or whatever that might be.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Remember that your relationships flow through you as much as you flow through them. If you allow that to be what it is, you’ll experience a truly unusual and beautiful phase of connecting with others. Though always remember, your relationships start with your own existence.
