Motivation and Information from Eric Francis
Dear Friend and Reader:
With the news only delivering bad news about the economy, and many people struggling to get a foothold, I have devoted this year’s Planet Waves Midyear Report to matters of talent, calling, career and finance. This reading is designed to be motivating and informative.

You may be figuring out that the strange condition of society (i.e. “the economy”) actually presents you with an opportunity. Or you may be figuring out that having little other obvious choice, you have to do the one thing that you’ve always wanted to do: invent your own career.
The purpose of this series of readings is to orient you with the current astrology in either situation. I show you how the angles of your chart that address your resources and talents (the 2nd house) connect to what you do every day (the 6th house) and your highest calling and reputation (10th house). These three houses work together. I describe how they relate to partnership and business income.
I cover themes like: where does your own personal development intersect with the changes in the business environment? Is home employment a good idea for you, or would working out of an office be better?
Now, you may ask: how can I do this in a report based only on the Sun sign and rising sign? The answer is I’m good at what I do, which includes coming up with ideas that are sparked by the astrology. I am also good at working with the houses, which is the key to astrology in any case.
We’ve been receiving some excellent feedback this week on the Midyear. One reader wrote to me:
“I just listened to my Midyear Report for both Virgo and Libra. It touched me so deeply. Even thinking of it right now, after some time has passed I have tears. I look forward to the info moving through me for many days to come. Thank you SO much!”
Last night someone sent me a personal Facebook message:
“After listening to my Sun sign, I wrote this in my morning journal: ‘I am amazed at what he can conclude from a solar chart, apply it in such a way it reaches into my personal “essence” and then provide insightful tools on how to navigate to get the most of it all…His descriptions are uplifting. Elevating. I feel heard, understood, and supported.’ Really excellent, helpful work, Eric. I listened to it again, taking notes; now working on a plan or two. Your thoughts and supportive words bring much needed light and healing to this world.”
Each sign’s reading is about 45 minutes in length, and the package comes with a general introduction and an extended interview (in writing) about “Entrepreneurship in the 2012 Era.”
The Midyear Report costs $29.95 for all 12 signs. I recommend you listen to three: Your Sun, your rising and your 10th (instructions are included for finding those.) Click here to sign up for instant access.
Lovingly,


Feedback via email:
“I listen to his recordings again and again as it is like he has ‘1,000 insights into my soul!’.”
Thanks Amanda! It has nothing to do with the PW family (I love you guys) or to astrology itself. I think I already know the answer, I’m think its more of the fear we I be able to follow through. I will have this weekend to myself, I think I will delve into then. I will keep you posted.
To you, Eric and Len, the energy and insight you offer us on a daily basis is like no other and cannot be duplicated. I just need to find a better way to channel it and to allow it flow within me.
Thanks again!
astarte — feel free to ask any questions here. both eric and i (and chelsea) as well as our readers are happy to provide any info we can.
you can also call chelsea at: 877-453-8265
or if you’re not in the US or Canada: 386-445-5732
of course, if the hesitation has to do with your own inner relationship to PW or astrology in general, that’s a little trickier. but feel free to think out loud about that here, too.
I’ve been reluctant and still have not purchased the Mid-Year Report. Not quite sure what is holding me back….. : (
I’ll be back once I figure it out.
and here are more rave reviews for the 2012 Midyear Report that we’ve gathered from Facebook:

Dear Eric,
I just listened to the midyear report for my Sun sign only. In all the years I have been getting your reports (9 years or so) I have never heard one so right on! Thank you! I feel as though a huge weight has been lifted off my mind. Something I could never put into words, about what has been going on in my life lately, you so articulately stated in this report. Moreover, your treatment of the impending ingress of Saturn in Scorpio, which has had me in hyper-vigilant anticipation, has calmed me down quite a bit. I feel so much more at ease. I can’t tell you how much that means to me! Consider yourself ‘hugged’!

Thanks Eric, your report is like talking with a good friend who has your best interest at heart. So clear, supportive and motivating. Brilliant!

Your Gemini Midyear report explaining why my emotions and values fluctuate, and why Gemini is not all ‘mental’ — which I have always known about myself but had wondered, “is it the Scorpio in my chart that is making me so emotional?” is amazingly right on. Even though I am Leo rising, the Gemini Midyear report is also a perfect fit. Thank you!
— Lea

Very helpful. Supportive. My shaky ground now solidifies now in relevance, purpose, confirmation. Deep gratitude.

I cannot wait to cuddle in bed tonight with my earphones. I will be sure to provide feedback.
The feedback keeps coming in…here is what arrived today —
Eric,
Thank you for the midyear report. My sun sign is Capricorn and rising is Pisces.
After reading Cappy, I was reluctant to listen to Pisces as I didn’t think anything could top such a wonderful report.It was as if you were telling my life story.
I succumbed after two days and last night allowed myself to be treated to your enlightening and guiding Pisces report. I am still basking in the glow!
For most of my working life I have worked in clerical and managerial roles and five or so years ago I found myself on a very different path — that of Reflexology and color. I have had difficulty combining the need to eat and have a roof over my head with the luxury of allowing that which I so love doing — feet!
Your report has helped me to tease out the knotty bits and provided the guidance I needed to allow what we Piceans do best – flow!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Laura, the reports are designed to work with whole sign houses, rather than with traditional house cusps. How does that influence things?

Eric and all at PWA,
Thank you for all you do to promote peace and harmony through astrology. It’s great to read these testimonials. As a ten year subscriber and student of astrology for over thirty years, I can testify that PWA is unique – quality of astrology, interpretation and integration with global, personal and spiritual matters, the sense of inclusion and participation for PWA’s readers and subscribers.
I’ve purchased many reports over the years: birthday, annual, special and have always appreciated the accuracy of the solar readings.
However, with intercepted houses (5/11) and Leo/Aquarius extending beyond houses 2/8, my chart does not fit the conventional solar pattern.
Over the years, with each report, I try to fit my astrological profile into the solar chart readings. I tried again with the 2012 Leo birthday report (usually I get the Cancer birthday report, too, though not this year) – and again felt as if I were just outside the loop.
My Sun is Leo7 and with Cancer Ascendant19 / Moon8, Mars10, Uranus11 in house 12. Pisces rules the IC and Virgo the MC, with Taurus intercepted in house 11 and Scorpio in house 5.
Perhaps the current Sun/Moon conjunction has prompted this request for your advice at long last.
I’m sure other PWA subscribers and supporters with intercepted houses would welcome your advice on how to apply solar readings to their charts. I would think the Midyear Report would be helpful for we interceptors: we could read in all the signs and thereby arrive at our personal interpretations.
Any light you can shed on this will be most gratefully received. Thank you.
The reports are so succinct it is as if Eric is shining a high beam spotlight right into your heart, revealing all the quiet whisperings that are your own personal truth. Very supportive and motivational in easy to access audio files. The mid year report is now my personal support material for this very special year. Thank you!
listened to the virgo report last night…so astute…so in depth…thank you, Eric…you’re the best!!! ♥♥♥…always amazed at how closely your interpretations fit my life…as though you were writing for me personally!!!!
This was one of the BEST gosh darn reports ever! You are definitely a one of a kind Mr. efc. Thanks so much for your energy!
