Zeus blamed Eris for starting the Trojan War, but he silenced the whistleblower for the scheme of his and Themis’ making; to scapegoat someone else for his inner anguish with himself. This article looks at the naked man in the mirror whose pain, in the form of anger, he passed on to everyone around him.

The goal to make the recipient feel dependent, loyal and obligated to that person. The chilling tactic - to shower ‘love’ - is often used by narcissists, abusers, and even con artists. Eris is the deliberate plotting, scheming and causing of chaos in love connections by the shapeshifter. True love EXALTS all parties, but when one party gets greedy or deceptive to win, they disrupt the real love.
Read MorePART 9: When Eris cycles is studied it becomes obvious that it is veraciously power hungry. It wants to suck everything up that looks like power, for satisfaction. It’s self-serving. However, towards the end it can cause tremendous suffering. Remember that in Eris’s mythology it talks about Paris and Zeus creating the collapse of an empire with their bad choices regarding abuse of power. Total collapse of the old, and a fall from grace, is what happens towards the end of Eris transits. Eris energy demands total change.

It’s about turning those who are loved and respected, even innocent, upside down, refusing to acknowledge them, nor acknowledge the consequences of action taken that harm another party.
Read MorePART 7: It looks at the mythological story of Eris, who was scapegoated for starting the Trojan War, when it was the brainchild of an insecure player, who wanted to get rid of the competition to his ego superiority. Zeus didn’t want oracle Themis’ prophecy to come true, that Thetis’s son would become more accomplished/powerful/influential etc. than him. Yet Achilles had an amazing education, healthy childhood, and by the time he became an adult, he was mild mannered, wise and a celebrated warrior.
Read MorePART 6: From Eris’s mythology it becomes obvious how deliberate the desire and intention was to win at all cost. To deliberately injure, betray and inflict pain on another. To leave a situation so open-ended or unresolved, that it can drag on for years. And how small the prospect of healing, forgiveness and recovery really was for scorned goddesses Hera and Athena. Only those of the greatest inner fortitude, to allow the transformative process, get to move on from this attempt at entrapment within a distorted sense of self.
Read MorePART 5: In considering the juxtaposition of Eris expression, this involves taking a broad examination of the energy dynamics that have been dysfunctional for ages. The cruelty in these closed-minded social situations need to be understood; regarding putting another in a “prison” situation, to take a gain from them. Making one party the Eris marginalised and disenfranchised. This entails discrimination and refusing to allow in the fresh air of change.
Read MorePART 4: Vanity is the excessive belief in one’s own abilities or attractiveness to others, to a detriment. Paris of Troy wanted to make these powerful goddesses dependent on him, so that he can control them, with his (false) narrative; to be disempowered by a false appearance of lowered position, influence or worth in society. The audacity of a mere mortal inflicting these injustices on those of higher rank and superior qualities infuriated the three goddesses Hera, Aphrodite and Athena…
Read MorePART 3: The cold hearted and immature doesn’t want the prolific-with-good-intentions to grow and exceed in excellence beyond them, which is why they want to diplomatically, but stealthily keep them connected to them. Perhaps providing the illusion of mutual support, when it’s a one way avenue only… so that one person can steal and enjoy the other’s accolades, at their expense, and cause them immense sorrow.
Read MorePART 2: At the start of Eris transits, greedy and materialistic people become particularly shrewd in business, to the point of blindness. The opportunistic become willing to do anything to get ahead; make false accusations, make ill alliances for clout, stir up drama, ride the fastest lane to victory, trampling over others, selling their soul, etc. Turning one person, or perhaps an entire community upside down, for money or clout. Eris transits started in earnest at the start of 2020 and will continue until 2028+.
Read MorePART 1: The term clout chasing is sometimes used to refer to the act of pursuing fame or public acclaim. The word clout in clout chaser refers to power or influence. The word chaser implies that such a person is “chasing” fame because they don’t have the talent to attain it by themselves (and so instead they engage in desperate attempts to get famous by any means). In this article we look at the Judgement of Paris and how all of the players staged their own unravelling with their selfishness.
Read MoreThis article is for a deeper understanding of Eris energy and how she was made the scapegoat for having started the Trojan War. The forced wedding of Thetis was to quell Zeus’ fear, paranoia and insecurity in response to a prophecy made by Themis; in which Thetis would bear a son stronger/more powerful than Zeus. This created the scheming, to transfer discord to the goddesses. Many tried to get one over on another, for a selfish gain, with disastrous consequences; chiefly blamed on Eris of course.

Eris and Saturn will conjunct two times due to retrograde motions, and by the time this happens, Eris conjunct Chiron (2024- 2028) would have been raging for a while. Eris square Pluto started in 2020 and by 2027, I hope that people will have made themselves well acquainted with lower expression Eris energy, so they can really start to appreciate Eris higher energy instead.
Read MoreEris issues are the things that people don’t want to see, and they would rather be in denial over. Yet this game of smoke and mirrors is their torture. Both Eris and Chiron are feeling, visceral and sensing, and has to do with the one person being ostracised from society, or a group of people, deliberately, for being different. Eris conjunct Chiron will start in 2024 - 2026, and by the time this happens, the pot may have been well stirred, and the setup of the stage established.

Read MoreEris square Pluto are making their last two exact square aspects to each other in August and October 2021. If you were the person who hurt another, and you want to heal a broken relationship and ask for forgiveness; you better be ready to forgive those people who screwed you over in the first place, otherwise you will keep repeating the pattern, bestowing what is in your dark heart, onto those who don’t deserve it. Ready to look in the Eris mirror, are you?
Read MoreWhy do players play, bullies bully, and enviers envy? It’s all about the good energy of another person, and how that can be contorted into an ‘achievement’ for those who seem unable to obtain inner completeness.
