Dear Friend and Reader:
Well — not including looking at these charts years in advance, I have been over the astrology for 2012 five times — forward, backward in three layers, and then forward again. I’ve studied the major planets, the asteroids and many of the new discoveries. I’ve gone over the charts for each of the Sun’s ingresses into the signs, as well as key major events such as Uranus square Pluto, the Venus transit of the Sun and the pattern of 29 eclipse-like events we have this year. The main results of this work are the astrology readings contained in the 2012 annual edition.

The audio presentations are done and ready, and I’m close to finishing the written interpretations. With any luck at all, I plan to have the readings available to those who have opted in by Monday night.
I am on schedule to finish the written version of Pisces on Saturday, then I’ve given myself two days to go over the signs and tune up the language; plus the proofreading and production team will be putting the finishing touches on the website. Included are numerous articles, useful resources and the key charts for 2012. There’s also a blog that will track the events, astrological and worldly, as they develop.
Yes, 2012 is the year that the Mayan long count reaches the date 13.0.0.0.0. Nobody is really sure what this ‘means’. Yet I can tell you as a Western-styled astrologer that we are slipping into some extremely rare and exciting aspects, which really heat up in late May. The phase from now until late April is a time of preparation, evaluation and adjustment. Then the real excitement begins. What we saw in 2011 was just the warmup for much more interesting things to come.
Stepping outside of marketing presentations for this project, what I have done with the 2012 astrology is to personalize it for each of the Sun signs and the rising signs. I have meticulously gone through the aspects, and using my gift for developing detailed readings for the Sun signs and rising signs, presented the astrology to you in clear terms, covering the most important areas of your life.

I’ve prepared these readings recognizing the difficulties that many people are facing, as the pressures of life impact them, and as the world changes. I speak to what is a nearly universal desire to participate in the changes that are happening. And I speak to the fear of the unknown that so many people are facing — which relates to both a sense of something ominous, and some unusual potential.
The audio presentations are as motivational as they are informative. They are intended to get you going. Many people are fed up with the persistent negativity that surrounds us, and the sense that it’s impossible to make real progress as politicians fixate on the uterus and ignore the economy; as companies focus on profits and lay off workers; as banks hog cash and pay bonuses, but don’t lend money to small businesses.
I know — it’s chilly out there, in many more ways than these. However, I blow through all of that and get to the heart of how and why we can take advantage of the raw power and precise leverage offered by the aspects of 2012 and beyond. What we’re calling 2012 is a gateway to an extended era.
I have crafted this work to provide as much information, strategy and clear perspective as I can. I do my best not only to translate, but to put you in contact with your astrology, and your astrology in contact with you. Presented in both written and spoken format, these readings are designed to be accessible and to present the information in a way that will help you work with the incoming energies and, borrowing a phrase, to be in tune with the times.
I am looking forward to wrapping up this project over the weekend and putting it into your hands; you are welcome to avail yourself of my efforts by purchasing the reports for individual signs, or by becoming a subscriber to our weekly service, which grants you access to a discounted rate on all 12 signs. If you want to subscribe and order all 12 signs of the annual in one go, call Chelsea at (877) 453-8265. To all those who have signed up already — thank you for your business, and mostly for your trust in my work.
We will send a note out to those who have opted into the 2012 annual when the readings go live on Monday evening.
Lovingly,
My “Yay!!” with a million asterisks and exclamation points got deleted… 🙁
If only this was gmail, where there are self-peeling bananas emoticons! Planet Waves, you get my self-peeling bananas.
And here’s another response to Light Bridge, the 2011 annual edition of Planet Waves — in case you’re wondering what the 2012 annual might be like:
“I don’t know how you do it dearest Eric. And this you’ve done 12 times! Your horoscope is written with so much love – has such breadth and depth, such profound knowledge of human nature and the soul’s journey. And as always -you’re a guiding light. Thank you. Much love. -Liz”
Here’s a little reader feedback from the 2011 Annual edition
“I have just finished reading this report and my head is spinning. Ha!! Fabulous writing once again Eric. Thanks so much for turning my head around once more. – Tricia D.”
Hi Laura —
Actually, it’s not Leo thru Pisces that have those tags, just Aquarius and Pisces. All the other signs have the appropriate tag for their 2012 birthday report.
The reason for this is that when the Dec 22 issue went out, we had not yet made individual signs of the 2012 annual available for purchase, so there was no link for that to be put in. And Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces birthday reports have not yet been done for this cycle.
At the time, when the Dec 22 monthly went out, all these tags were as current as they could be. This is one of the catches with linking to back materials this time of year.
Since then, weekly horoscopes and the Jan Inner Space have the 2012 annual tag for Aqu and Pisces, with a “coming soon” tag for the Cap birthday report.
If we are able to update those tags now, we will, but bear with us — this is *the* crunch weekend for getting the 2012 annual finished, in terms of all aspects of its publication.
Thanks for your eagle eyes!
Amanda
Good day, PWA,
thanks as always for interesting, compelling, timely editorial in sync with the astrology.
today, I linked to the January horoscopes (edition dated December 22, 2011) and noticed the tags under the signs from Leo through Pisces link to the extended horoscopes for 2011, Light Bridge, rather than for 2012. I didn’t check for the signs where the year wasn’t indicated. The tag at the beginning of that section refers to 2011 as well.
this may have come to your attention already from folks eager to purchase 2012’s extended horoscopes; if not, hope my comments are useful.
