Open: Planet Waves for August 2024 (Leo into Virgo season) with STARCAST
August was an intense month. We were all there. Humanity continues to be under pressure from full digital conditions, blurring what is real and what is not. One thing is certain: You are real.
Note, proofreaders have not had at this letter, and I’m a terrible typist.
Good Morning from Upstate New York —
Today I have open-access to the August astrology readings. Please take a moment for yourself. Print out your reading and sit with it for a while.
Just in case you’re not into astrology or think it’s ridiculous, these are for you: solid writing and a philosophically meaningful personal message. No fluffy speculation. No wasted words. No technical jargon. Written without prejudice.
Planet Waves monthly astrology is published at the end of each previous calendar month (September or Virgo season went out Thursday.)
The way I write used to be called spiritual philosophy. It’s designed to facilitate self-acceptance, inner growth and honest relationships. My words would have fit right in at a place like East-West Books in New York City in the 1970s and 1980s.
I draw my inspiration from writers such as Alan Watts, Byron Katie, Hugh Prather and others who work in the inner space where understanding and change are possible. While I’m solidly in the astrological tradition, I take a much wider and personally relevant view than “giving advice.”
“Be not afraid. We only start again an ancient journey long ago begun that but seems new. We have begun again upon a road we traveled on before and lost our way a little while. And now we try again.” — A Course in Miracles
As A Course in Miracles suggests, all teaching is by example. Whatever I may offer you from my assorted “talents,” there’s just one good reason you want me as your astrologer: I excel at being myself.
I’m comfortable in my mind and my skin no matter what I’m doing or who I’m talking to. This is the product of dedicating my life to healing, learning, creating and relating. So if you want to feel more expressive and confident being you, my work is a great place to start.
I offer a wide diversity of prepared and custom readings for all budgets (including consulting, which resumes in September) — all available at the Astrology Boutique. There are many samples of my readings available; please spread the word about this new area.
For the cost of lunch or dinner, you can have a lifetime of learning. My readings stand up to multiple playings. You can leave one of them on your car sound system for a week and it will still provide new information every time around.
Please scroll down for the link to your August astrology. I’ll be checking the comments if you have questions.
With love,
PS — I’m likely to have your Virgo reading later today: Grow What Feeds You. (I only do these readings when I feel solid, rested and ready.) Pre-sale pricing is still available. In in case you’ve missed the Trust Yourself project, here is a good place to start, short, open-access audio called Trust: The Foundation.
“Eric’s work will introduce you to Chiron and facilitate your healing journey. His work is always brilliant and relevant, offering deeply personal insights and also addressing our current social and collective processes, highlighted by Chiron’s current position in Aries.”

Wonderful, thankyou 🙏
