- Tarnas, Cosmos and Psyche (2006)Tarnas frames Eris as an archetype of disruptive, boundary-shattering force; here the Midheaven is where Eris conjunction brings that necessary discord into vocation and public role.
- Greene, Relating: An Astrological Guide to Living with Others on a Small Planet (1977)Greene frames the Midheaven as the tenth house of calling and public life, where Eris conjunction sets the theme of the outsider, the uninvited, and the conflict that cannot be avoided.
