Reviews of The Tenth Planet: Revelations from the Astrological Eris
It s not often that a professional is on the cutting edge of his field but Henry Seltzer is no stranger to breaking new ground in astrology. In this latest contribution, he graces us with pioneering insights on Eris - a dwarf planet that he proves deserves consideration. The pages are filled with well researched chart examples and analysis supporting his archetypal views on how Eris functions in a horoscope. This book deserves space in your mind and on your shelf; Seltzer s contributions on Eris is a definite enhancement to astrological theory.
Maria DeSimone - www.InsightfulAstrology.com
In this cogent study of Eris, Henry Seltzer is doing bold, groundbreaking work on the astrological frontier. I ve marveled at the slowness of the astrological community to embrace this new planet despite its being slightly bigger than Pluto. Perhaps that is because these new worlds always represent new, emerging possibilities in consciousness, and thus tend to frighten people. Thank you, Henry, for not being afraid.
Steven Forrest, author of The Inner Sky
Mr. Seltzer s book on Eris offers groundbreaking research into the field of astrology. His description of Eris in each of the houses is eye-opening and offers fresh insights into an area of life in which we need to develop the feminine warrior aspect of ourselves as part of our life purpose.
Jan Spiller, author of Cosmic Love
What we have here in Henry Seltzer s new book is more than a well researched treatise on Eris, it is a fantastic look into the workings of the mind of a true astrologer. Henry displays all the intellectual resources, the philosophical depth, and the respect for our ancient craft that go into the making of a definite addition to our astrological home libraries. Plus, we get to learn all about the properties of this newly discovered planet. Bravo!
Alan Oken, author of Soul-Centered Astrology (with a natal Eris/Sun conjunction)
Henry Seltzer s passion for Eris, his fine writing and ample research will sweep you into a relationship with a new planet. This pioneering work brings us face to face with an emergent archetype, the feminine spiritual warrior. Behind Henry s enthusiasm lie years of astrological learning and a keen astrological mind. Let him take you along on his quest to understand an important new planet.
Lynn Bell, author, consultant, teacher and speaker in astrology, based in Paris, author of Planetary Threads
Henry Seltzer has given us a wonderful introduction to an archetype whose time has come: that of the avenging warrioress. A new symbol can empower us to address ancient blind spots; and, as is often the case with pioneering studies, it seems fated that The Tenth Planet should appear just now. Its subject is urgently relevant, to both visionary activism and personal psychospiritual work. Seltzer uses references from legend, art and contemporary culture to put the reader in touch with an impulse that is quickening within consciousness seekers everywhere: the urge to rebalance a world made toxic by the imbalanced masculine principle. Welcome, Eris!
Jessica Murray, San Francisco, MotherSky.com
Henry s interpretation of dwarf planet Eris provides a fascinating entry point for exploring the feminine warrior archetype. After 5,000+ years of patriarchal conditioning and its distortions of our connection to all species on planet Earth, Eris provides the opportunity to shift the male dominated world. Evolution is demanding that human consciousness balances its gender wounds as well as our relationship with all living, breathing beings. Eris is ready to take us to new levels of understanding the journey ahead. Bravo, Henry!

Bibliography
Acknowledgments
Many people have helped to make this book possible, including close friends and family and of course the many mentors over the years of my astrological apprenticeship, both in their written works and in person. I would like in particular to express tremendous gratitude to my son, Asia Seltzer, who has helped me greatly in my astrological work, and in marketing the very well-received astrology software program that I created and that he has helped to design, the TimePassages program and app. He has also been a partner with me in our joint design of what is now rapidly becoming one standard Eris glyph, with the arrow going straight down, a combination of the glyphs for Pluto, Mars and Venus.
I have also been incredibly blessed in my staff at AstroGraph Software Inc., located on the web at Astrograph.com , that is Stephanie Shaffer, Leslie Benson (who did such a wonderful job graphically on the cover also), Lisa Stutey and Phoenix Toews, as well as a terrific assist from Bella Shing. I am continually in awe of their combination of amazing commitment, intelligence and energy for this work in which we are engaged - of spreading the revolutionary information that astrology indeed does work no matter how; and of course that how is a very great mystery that deserves attention in this time of failing traditional values. Magic is afoot in the world, in spite of every indication to the contrary, and we have the evidence clearly at hand, or as astrologer Richard Tarnas puts it, in his seminal Cosmos and Psyche , when we open-heartedly address the universe with an understanding of the language of astrology, the universe is capable of speaking back, directly to us.
I want to give a special shout-out as well to my extremely capable editor and captain of the publishing ship, Margaret Cahill at The Wessex Astrologer (well, who is The Wessex Astrologer). Her encouragement and tireless dedication to this project have made it a far better representation of the information and the evidence regarding the proposed existence of a brand-new astrological archetype than would have been the case otherwise. I thank her from the bottom of my heart and applaud her courage in taking an unusual stand by espousing the thesis of this somewhat controversial and revolutionary book, even amongst fellow astrologers.

Part I
Intimations of a New Archetype
A new planet has been discovered and named in this dawning 21st Century, although concealed under the appellation of dwarf, yet, still a planet.

The Challenge of a New Planet
In September 2006 a new planet was announced by the International Astronomical Union (IAU). It was named Eris - for the Greek goddess of Chaos and Discord - and true to its name, this planet s birth did not come easy. Because there were numberless objects remaining to be discovered and named in the region beyond the orbit of Neptune, and recognizing that the new body together with Pluto (discovered in the 1930s) were only the first and second of these, its astronomical characterization as a true planet of our solar system was in doubt. This was so even though this new body, already nicknamed Xena after the television warrior princess, was about the same size as the existing Pluto, and identical in astronomical category.
The public, and the astrologers too, were fond of little Pluto, previou
