I believe that Eris has to do with civil rights,human rights,equal
rights and standing up for self and for the things they believe in
I also believe that Eris has to do with stirring stuff up. as well as
challenging the status quo. The perfect example are civil rights
activists like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr who stood up against the
unfairness of racism and lack of civil rights,human rights,equal
rights for Blacks. Those civil rights leaders were accused by
rigid,conservative,narrow-minded,intolerant people as troublemakers who
challenging the status quo as well as standing up for themselves and
for the things that they believe in. Female civil rights activist,
Susan B. Anthony did the same thing. Also people like Nelson Mandela
against Apartheid in South Africa. Who can forget Malcolm X?
Abraham Lincoln stirred up crap and pissed off a lot of people in the
South for speaking out against slavery and that it doesn't belong in
USA. He really pissed people off when he freed the slaves. It took a
Civil War to abolish slavery completely in the USA. Abolutionist
Frederick Douglass,who was a former slave even believed that it was a
war to end slavery.
I am a strong believer in civil rights,human rights,equal rights....I
do stand up for myself and for the things that I believe in.....like
tolerance,acceptance,understanding of
multiculturalism,multi-ethnicism,interracial
relationships/dating/marriages,and all things of races,ethnic groups
as well as people with learning disabilities,ADHD,autistic spectrum
disorder, psychiatric disorders,and neurological disorders. I have
stirred up stuff,piss people off because I challenge the status quo
and point out the injustice,intolerance of societies in regards to
those things that I have just mentioned...especially when many people
including me experience that stuff.
I can strongly relate to Eris too
Eris Nodes are prominent with my Sun conjunct South Eris Node/oppose North Eris Node with 9 and 10 minutes of arc respectively.
I have Eris in 12'15 Retrograde Aries in 8th:
conjunct Chiron in 10'32 Retrograde Aries in 8th
sextile Midheaven in 11'14 Gemini
sextile North Node in 10'29 Aquarius in 5th
quincunx Ascendant in 13'27 Virgo
trine Jupiter in 8'17 Sagittarius in 3rd
semisquare Mars in 25'54 Aquarius in 6th - 1'21
biquintile Mercury in Scorpio in 3rd - '06

another interesting thing.....
Eris was in the 11 to 12 degree of Gemini when African slaves were
brought to Jamestown,Virginia.
coincidentally, my Midheaven is also in the 11 to 12 degree Gemini
for the event of the first African slaves to Jamestown,Virginia, Eris
is within the same minute as my Midheaven in 11'14 Gemini.
It made me wonder if I was involving in that event as a slave or
somebody who participated in slavery in pastlife.
maybe civil rights leaders,slaves,and people who have gone through
racism,prejudice,and bigotry have a past-life history of being the
abuser in those things themselves.
I feel that my multi-ethnic ancestry and multicultural heritage,family
helped me not be racist,bigot,prejudiced person. helped me to believe
in unity and universal love.
The same with my special education,learning disabilities that helped
me learn the lessons of humility too. I don't believe that I am better
than anybody. in fact, I grew up with an inferiority complex. I am a
lot more secure in myself now after gaining self awareness from
reading Astrology and stuff about learning disabilities and getting
mine resolved. That's why I am not ashamed of my past now that I can
share it with others to help raise awareness of the issues that I and
many other people have dealt with.
I feel that t-square of my Moon in Pisces in 6th square
Jupiter-Neptune in Sagittarius and Saturn in Gemini in 9th also
reflects all that.
the Sabian symbol for 12 Gemini is:
A Negro Girl Fights For Her Independence In the City
'liberation from the ghosts of the past'
I am part Black on my father's side and grew up believing in my fellow
Pisces Moon Martin Luther King Jr's dream. My Pisces Moon father also
believed in his dream.
I am minority in so many way(Dyslexia, Dyspraxia,AD/HD, multi-ethnic
background,born from an interracial relationship,highly sensitive male
that doesn't fit the traditional male stereotype,Anxiety and Depression
Disorders) and spent my entire life struggling,fighting for equal,fair
treatment for myself and others. At times, I come off the wrong way
to others...especially by people who haven't gone through the things
that me and certain other people have gone through and so cannot
relate. I am very intense and passionate person who can be very
fierce in defending myself and others. I have a history of talking
back to my parents and getting hit for that...all because I speak out
against unfairness. My parents accused me of being disrespectful to
them. I couldn't respect my parents because they disrespected me by
their mistreatment and physical/emotional abuse. I do believe in
respecting people as a human being. But I won't bow down to anybody
who tells me to shut up and orders me around,and hits me like I am a
slave. Nobody should. That's why I admire people like Dr. Martin
Luther King Jr, Frederick Douglass,Rosa Parks, Nelson Mandela, Susan B
Anthony....heck even my fellow Dyslexic Tom Cruise for the abuses that
psychiatry has done to people even though I don't believe in
Scientology. After all, just because a person doesn't fit with
society's norms doesn't necessarily mean that they need medication.
according to Lynda Hill;s book, 360 Degrees of Wisdom which is about
the Sabian Symbols,
12 DEGREE GEMINI
keywords:
Rising above conditioning and limitations. Standing up one's self.
Demanding better treatment. Seeking recognition and self-respect.
Being in charge of one's life. Breaking away from oppression. Wanting
a raise in pay or conditions. The need for freedom. Desiring property
and rewards. Rising up from an "underdog" position or situation. The
quest for identity.
The Caution: Feeling hard done by. Being demanding. Blaming others.
Bucking authority. Demanding to be recognized or noticed. Feeling used
and abused. Oppression and slavery. Jealousy and envy. Exploitation.
There has been a lot of fighting for one's rights in general, and it
has been through both peaceful and warlike means.
I am thinking of Eris as stirring up things for a purpose. That can be
negative or positive...depending what the purpose is....if its for
equal rights,civil rights,human rights, then it can be a positive
thing. If it's just to hurt others and out of selfishness, then it's a
negative thing. The thing is really depends on what one perceives. A
person can have a certain intention that is behind their actions, but
not everybody will perceive that particular intention, others might
see that intention as something different.
Like John Brown was hanged as a criminal for violence in the South
right before the Civil War. But he was a man who was protesting
slavery. In the eyes of the South, Brown was a terrorist and criminal.
In the eyes of the Black slaves, Brown was a hero and freedom fighter.
The Civil War in USA was a war that ended slavery in the South. Before
the Civil War started, North was against slavery and South was for
slavery. The southerners thought that the Union troops who fought for
the North were in the wrong for fighting to end slavery. The
northerners and slaves would think the Union Army was righteous. the
northerners thought that the Confederacy troops who fought for the
South were in the wrong for fighting to preserve slavery was in the
wrong,but the southerners saw them as heroes. If I was born in those
days, I would have chosen to join the Union Army to fight against
slavery. My black father was born in the South(Louisiana).
Many people think Ossama Bin Laden is a terrorist, and some people
think that he is a hero who is leading the jihad against the
Americans. A lot of conservatives here in USA believed that Bush is
righteous in the fight against terrorism and defending Christianity. A
lot of liberals believe that he's an evil person and doesn't care
about the religious rights of others and there some compare him to Hitler.
A lot of people are for psychiatry think Tom Cruise is
stupid,dangerous for speaking out against psychiatry and the
psychiatric medications. There are people who are against psychiatry
who believe that Tom Cruise is making valid points for speaking out
against psychiatry and the psychiatric medications which are
prescribled unnecessarily,too much, and even forced on people who
don't need the medications as well as people who suffer from
psychiatric misdiagnoses/abuses. That's where I am on the side of Tom
Cruise. I spoke out against these things in ADHD forums,chatrooms, and
I was seen as a trouble maker and militant. These were people who were
strong believers in psychiatry. There have definitely been people who
believed that it was cool for me to point out the injustices and
misdiagnoses in psychiatry.
It's all in the perception.
Raising some hell is not particularly a bad thing if it's done for
good intentions and for others and not for bad and selfish intentions.

Eris and some information about it
Eris is a kuiper belt object that was found to be larger than Pluto and led to the demotion of Pluto and promotion of Ceres, and so all 3 are classed as dwarf planets.
Orbital Period: 556.65 yr. It is the 4th brightest Kuiper Belt Object. It is between 2,400 and 3,000 kilometres in diameter and 27% more massive than Pluto.
It is named after the Goddess of Discord,Strife. It was nicknamed Xena. Michael Brown wanted to name it Persephone because he felt that it was Persephone-like. Persephone is the wife of Hades in Greek mythology,and so the queen of the Underworld. Dysnomia is the name of the its moon and is named after the Goddess of lawlessness, a daughter of Eris.

http://zanestein.com/keywords.html#Eris
I have been doing my own research. I looked at a lot of charts that included Civil rights stuff during the days of Martin Luther King Jr(that was a lot of charts to look at), the American Civil War,Proclamation of Emanicipation, Dr. King's assassination,John Lennon's assassination,Archduke Ferdinand's assassination,Ronald Reagan's attempted assassination,9-11 attacks,Invasion of Baghdad, OJ Simpson trial,Michael Vick Dogfighting, Jena 6,Don Imus' nappyheaded hoes,Formation of Klu Klux Klan,Foundation of NAACP,First Gay Marriage License in Masschussetts, Michael Richard's Racist Rant,Alex Haley's Roots televised,Alex Haley's Roots book publication,Alex Haley's Roots next generaton televised,Dr. Kambon's White Extermination Speech,Rodney King Riots,Rodney King guilty verdict,President George Bush,and African American Slavery chart, and of course, the discovery chart which I correlated with racial relations/co-ruler of Astrology,and other things.
I also researched personal stuff like my learning disability issues/advocacy history,relationships,and my family.
I didn't go by the mythology of Eris alone. I checked Eris in mundane astrology charts and some natal. I also considered the events that went on around the discovery of Eris including that Pluto and Ceres were made equals in Astrology which got me thinking about equal rights,civil rights stuff. I always felt that Ceres was underrated in Astrology and started feeling that Pluto is being overrated...especially after so many other kuiper belt objects have been discovered...especially the large ones. I also considered the orbital symbolism too......its perihelion/aphelion and its north and south nodes. I also looked at Sabian Symbols,and those work so well that I got a book on Sabian Aspect orbs. I will post about my sabian aspect orbs later.
I pretty much found stuff that correlated with what Zane Stein and Roy Mackinnon wrote about in Eris.
I mainly found a lot of stuff pertaining to African American civil,equal rights issues. I think that it bothering some people that I focused on this stuff. Actually,I was very nervous to post any of the stuff that I found because it's a very sensitive subject. I was afraid that some might be patronizing and condescending to me like say things like "get over it, slavery and civil war is over and that there is no racism". That's recently happened to me on another forum. I know that the stuff that I post is controversial and can stir things up, but I feel that Eris is about controversy and stirring stuff up any way. I can't help finding that Eris pertain to minority issues, and the goddess Eris was a minority goddess in myths too. Roy Mackinnon noted stuff about minorities in his keywords and Zane Stein noted stuff like fighting for one's rights in his keywords. All those together seem like civil,equal rights issues to me and that advocacy can be an Eris thing.
I want to look more into religious issues because I believe that Eris has to do with ideology which Roy and Zane even state in their keywords. Many wars were based on religious issues. I would like to check out things like the Inquisition,Martin Luther,King Henry VIII,Queen Elizabeth I,Galileo. The crusades would also be interested to look at. Even Joan of Arc. A lot of the civil rights activists are preaches. Martin Luther King Jr was a Christian minister,and he led the Civil Rights movement. His wife was a civil rights activist,and she had Sun conjunct North Eris Node.
I am going to do some research on the Eris Nodes because those are important like other planetary nodes which Theodor Landscheidt,Zipporah Dobyns,and Jeffrey Wolf Green believe. My own Eris Nodes are prominent with my Sun conjunct South Eris Node/oppose North Eris Node with 9 and 10 minutes of arc respectively.
I have Eris in 12'15 Retrograde Aries in 8th:
conjunct Chiron in 10'32 Retrograde Aries in 8th
sextile Midheaven in 11'14 Gemini
sextile North Node in 10'29 Aquarius in 5th
quincunx Ascendant in 13'27 Virgo
trine Jupiter in 8'17 Sagittarius in 3rd
semisquare Mars in 25'54 Aquarius in 6th - 1'21
biquintile Mercury in Scorpio in 3rd - '06
I found that transiting Eris was quincunxing my Ascendant when my mom was shot when I was with her at the time. That was 3 days before my 3rd birthday.....that was the ultimate life changing event.
I found that transiting Eris was quincunx my chart ruler Mercury in Scorpio in 3rd when my grandfather shot himself to death....that was the catalyst for my spirituality.....I was an atheist for a couple of years....his death led me to believe in God again, and got into metaphysical things including eventually Astrology. I wouldn't be an astrologer if it wasn't for Grandpa. His death pretty much changed my ways of thinking in regards to spirituality,religion,philosophy.
I found that transiting Eris was quincunx my Venus in Scorpio in 3rd when I met my girlfriend in person. We love each other so much,and I want to spend the rest of our lives together. As you know,this is an interracial relationship too. Our belief in equality has helped our relationship. I was really interested in advocacy at the time too.
I feel that being a learning disability/neurodivergent/Dyslexic/Dyspraxic advocate is my life purpose.......it's things that I have experienced myself and so can easily sympathize with those things.

http://zanestein.com/keywords.html#Eris
I have been doing my own research. I looked at a lot of charts that included Civil rights stuff during the days of Martin Luther King Jr(that was a lot of charts to look at), the American Civil War,Proclamation of Emanicipation, Dr. King's assassination,John Lennon's assassination,Archduke Ferdinand's assassination,Ronald Reagan's attempted assassination,9-11 attacks,Invasion of Baghdad, OJ Simpson trial,Michael Vick Dogfighting, Jena 6,Don Imus' nappyheaded hoes,Formation of Klu Klux Klan,Foundation of NAACP,First Gay Marriage License in Masschussetts, Michael Richard's Racist Rant,Alex Haley's Roots televised,Alex Haley's Roots book publication,Alex Haley's Roots next generaton televised,Dr. Kambon's White Extermination Speech,Rodney King Riots,Rodney King guilty verdict,President George Bush,and African American Slavery chart, and of course, the discovery chart which I correlated with racial relations/co-ruler of Astrology,and other things.
I also researched personal stuff like my learning disability issues/advocacy history,relationships,and my family.
I didn't go by the mythology of Eris alone. I checked Eris in mundane astrology charts and some natal. I also considered the events that went on around the discovery of Eris including that Pluto and Ceres were made equals in Astrology which got me thinking about equal rights,civil rights stuff. I always felt that Ceres was underrated in Astrology and started feeling that Pluto is being overrated...especially after so many other kuiper belt objects have been discovered...especially the large ones. I also considered the orbital symbolism too......its perihelion/aphelion and its north and south nodes. I also looked at Sabian Symbols,and those work so well that I got a book on Sabian Aspect orbs. I will post about my sabian aspect orbs later.
I pretty much found stuff that correlated with what Zane Stein and Roy Mackinnon wrote about in Eris.
I mainly found a lot of stuff pertaining to African American civil,equal rights issues. I think that it bothering some people that I focused on this stuff. Actually,I was very nervous to post any of the stuff that I found because it's a very sensitive subject. I was afraid that some might be patronizing and condescending to me like say things like "get over it, slavery and civil war is over and that there is no racism". That's recently happened to me on another forum. I know that the stuff that I post is controversial and can stir things up, but I feel that Eris is about controversy and stirring stuff up any way. I can't help finding that Eris pertain to minority issues, and the goddess Eris was a minority goddess in myths too. Roy Mackinnon noted stuff about minorities in his keywords and Zane Stein noted stuff like fighting for one's rights in his keywords. All those together seem like civil,equal rights issues to me and that advocacy can be an Eris thing.
I want to look more into religious issues because I believe that Eris has to do with ideology which Roy and Zane even state in their keywords. Many wars were based on religious issues. I would like to check out things like the Inquisition,Martin Luther,King Henry VIII,Queen Elizabeth I,Galileo. The crusades would also be interested to look at. Even Joan of Arc. A lot of the civil rights activists are preaches. Martin Luther King Jr was a Christian minister,and he led the Civil Rights movement. His wife was a civil rights activist,and she had Sun conjunct North Eris Node.
I am going to do some research on the Eris Nodes because those are important like other planetary nodes which Theodor Landscheidt,Zipporah Dobyns,and Jeffrey Wolf Green believe. My own Eris Nodes are prominent with my Sun conjunct South Eris Node/oppose North Eris Node with 9 and 10 minutes of arc respectively.
I have Eris in 12'15 Retrograde Aries in 8th:
conjunct Chiron in 10'32 Retrograde Aries in 8th
sextile Midheaven in 11'14 Gemini
sextile North Node in 10'29 Aquarius in 5th
quincunx Ascendant in 13'27 Virgo
trine Jupiter in 8'17 Sagittarius in 3rd
semisquare Mars in 25'54 Aquarius in 6th - 1'21
biquintile Mercury in Scorpio in 3rd - '06
I found that transiting Eris was quincunxing my Ascendant when my mom was shot when I was with her at the time. That was 3 days before my 3rd birthday.....that was the ultimate life changing event.
I found that transiting Eris was quincunx my chart ruler Mercury in Scorpio in 3rd when my grandfather shot himself to death....that was the catalyst for my spirituality.....I was an atheist for a couple of years....his death led me to believe in God again, and got into metaphysical things including eventually Astrology. I wouldn't be an astrologer if it wasn't for Grandpa. His death pretty much changed my ways of thinking in regards to spirituality,religion,philosophy.
I found that transiting Eris was quincunx my Venus in Scorpio in 3rd when I met my girlfriend in person. We love each other so much,and I want to spend the rest of our lives together. As you know,this is an interracial relationship too. Our belief in equality has helped our relationship. I was really interested in advocacy at the time too.
I feel that being a learning disability/neurodivergent/Dyslexic/Dyspraxic advocate is my life purpose.......it's things that I have experienced myself and so can easily sympathize with those things.
