Saturday, August 26, 2006 | Minor Planets & Pluto (Media contact information below!) Dear Readers: If you're new to Planet Waves, I would like to welcome you and point you to a few areas of the site that may provide some information you're looking for. I've been specializing in minor planets since I got into astrology. Since so little is written in books, this field inevitably makes you a researcher; you have to ask questions. I've long taken this approach with Pluto, which is one of the most fun planets to write about because its effects are so distinct. Here is my favorite [old] article on the Pluto, called "Planet Why" (a pun on Planet X). This addresses some of the earlier controversy surrounding Pluto -- such as astrologers not recognizing it as a planet until four decades after its discovery: Planet Why: The History of Pluto http://ericfrancis.com/articles/plutohistory.html Over the years, I've collected some of my findings into several resource areas, one of which addresses Chiron -- but also has a lot on Pluto. So, you have both in this area: Chiron Resource Area http://planetwaves.net/chiron/ I've also collected my newer material into a minor planet resource area, which has material on many of the later discoveries: Minor Planet Resource Area http://www.planetwaves.net/minor_planet_astrology/ Finally, my favorite book on Pluto is something new: Cosmos & Psyche by Richard Tarnas. Tarnas is author of The Passion of the Western Mind and has just brought out this book, after 30 years of research. It's quite good, really, and you learn a lot about Pluto cycles.
