We will send you occasional emails about our in-house products and services, such as subscription packages, my astrological readings and other information. Everyone who signs up will also receive my monthly Inner Space horoscope free via email.

Important note to our subscribers, Core Community members and those with All-Access Passesregistering for this site is a separate process that is not linked to your subscription or its credentials, for technical reasons (related to databases). There is separate registration for all areas til I figure out how to link them. We are working on a project that may soon make that possible.

Many of our readers already have accounts. For example, if you comment on the blog, you are already registered. The good news is that now lots more people will be registered and can now get to comment.

Note to Registered Users of pw/news (this blog) — please let us know about your user experience signing up and/or signing in. You may email tech@planetwaves.net and please put ‘punter experience’ in the subject header, thanks! (Inside astrology joke, ‘punter’ is Brit for ‘customer’ or in the case of the ‘net, ‘user’. I picked up the expression from Jonathan Cainer, who would rather gaily refer to his readers as such.)

Thanks for signing up with us.
