Our new planet discovered in 2005 beyond Pluto and larger than he, was named Eris for the Greek Goddess of Discord at the 2006 meeting of International Astronomical Union. In astrology, does she express her name and its mythology, and if so, how? And, how can we get a handle on the meaning of a planet with an orbit of over 500 years? Thomas Canfield has taken up the challenge by researching Eris in the charts of events, Presidents and other major players in USA history. Tom discovered that Eris has a consistently contrary streak in that she reverses astrological tradition about how "hard" and "soft" aspects work. He calls it the "Frenemy Principle" and demonstrates it through 43 charts, more than a few touches of sardonic humor and interpretations laced with numerous anecdotes that will interest history buffs, as well as astrologers and students of astrology. So, where is Eris in YOUR chart? After reading this book, you will surely want to know!
