Subscriber Edition: Abandon Hope. Start the Revolution.

Dear Friend and Reader,

The Friday edition of Planet Waves Astrology News will be mailed to subscribers momentarily. It is THE place to read about the election astrology: Eric Francis lowers himself into the dank cave of Nov. 4, shines a flashlight around and reports back all he sees in the major and minor planet alignments.В 

Eric says:

“The thing we need to watch carefully is that the Moon and Mercury both change signs on Election Day. If we count the election chart as 12:01 am in the traditional first community to vote — Dixville Notch, New Hampshire — the Moon is applying in a sextile to Mars in Scorpio and a square to Eris in Aries. So, at the commencement of the election, the Moon is NOT void of course. But its aspects to Mars and Eris (occurring nearly simultaneously) are its last until it enters Aquarius that evening. For the rest of the day, the Moon drifts through late Capricorn without making aspects to major planets (that is the modern definition of void of course).

Mercury, for its part, starts the day in the exact degree where it was for the infamous “election” of 2000: the last degree of Libra, in fact at the very end of the very last degree of Libra. That was a pretty tricky day because Mercury was stationing direct, and it did so aboutВ five minutes before the polls closed in Florida. Imagine this: Mercury (the planet of media, communication and anything countable such as money and votes) changed directions in the sign of the scales just as the polls were closing. Hence we had a situation where things dangled “in the balance” and we didn’t know the winner for a month, and oddly enough the winner had fewer votes.”
