All About Eris... where she is, how to place her in charts and where to get the goods on her.
You can find a current position for the engimatic Eris on the site on the Plutinos Eris, Sedna, Centaurs and more. Also updated on that page are ingress eras for Eris and Sedna from 1900 - 2050. But if you want more information over a long interval of time and in your hands, you have a series of options.
First, you can order an ephemeris for Eris for the first day of every month, 1700 - 2100, 0 hr GMT, includes geocentric and heliocentric longitude and latitude; or the ephemeris for Eris and Sedna, daily 1900 - 2099, 0 hr GMT, including geocentric and heliocentric longitude and latitude and right ascension and declination. The daily version would print out to be about 450 pages. Please note: The ephemeris is sent via e-mail only and only in PDF format.
You may also order a daily ephemeris for the dwarf planet candidates 2003 EL61 and 2005 FY9. Yet unnamed, these bodies have a strong chance of assignment as dwarf planets, giving them Pluto-like weight. Please note: The ephemeris is sent via e-mail only and only in PDF format.
Of course both of the above ephemerides are free to those who have purchased the Galactic Trilogy CD. You may check out the Galactic Trilogy CD and its components, but the ephemerides listed with the CD are too large to e-mail. They are available only on the CD.
Another option is to purchase or update Solar Fire to version 6 or Kepler to version 7 and download their latest patches which afford these computations.

One more thing, here's what Mike Brown, co-discoverer of Eris, thinks about astrologers (be sure and come back).
Here's another great Eris article by our Scottish colleague, Wendy Howard.
The Fairest of Them All ~ The Planets Compete for their Places
by Philip Sedgwick
PDF format, 173 pages, 8 X 10 double space pages, footnoted
This thought provoking and fact rich treatise first details the discovery events from Uranus through Pluto, the discovery of the Kuiper Belt and ultimately, the discordant Eris. Following the history, we look at the astronomical controversy surrounding the realization that Eris was indeed larger than Pluto and the “demotion” of Pluto. Then we explore the mythology of the Pluto, Sedna and Eris to develop a bit of context for our astrology. To follow the myths and since Eris dealt chaos with an apple, fables and lore involving apples and suggesting Eris slide under our microscope. Finally, we explore the social contexts in which we see the Kuiper Belt planets influencing our world.
While this book was written so non-astrologers could track the insights, this compilation is not available anywhere else and is certain to assist astrological consultations. The contents of The Fairest of Them All might inspire you to join the leading edge of astrologers applying this great discovery in times that so crave guidance.
