We've all experienced times of conflict and personal struggle.  Times when the assistance and advice of a friend always seemed to lend comfort and ease the burden. Have you ever wondered what it would be like if that friend was one of the world's most revered astrologers, with over 25 years of experience?

This service is no longer available.

I have decided to put more time and energy into my research. It’s been a pleasure to answer your emails and to help you through some of life’s tough journeys. Everyone who has participated in my Dear Eugenia column has enriched my life and I hope I have improved yours as well.

For those of you who wish to contribute birth data to my research, please enter your information to my medical astrology research listed on my home page. This research is explicitly dealing with cancer and mental health – addiction illness. The focus is on early diagnosis and preventative medicine.

I want to stress how important it is to submit complete and accurate birth data – the time and place of birth.

The following are our 'Dear Eugenia' letters archive:

Article: Thinking your future

Hi Eugenia,

I'm a 21-year old gay male living in New Mexico. I have been addicted to substances (alcohol, etc.) since I was a teenager. I can't shake them and can't seem to imagine a life without them. They are getting in the way of possible love interests because if I had a partner, they would need to be patient with the substances. As it is, I cling to phone sex and pornography to continue the escapism. I'm not complaining about my life. I've learned to live with it. But is there something in my chart that would explain my problem? That's all I need to know right now. If you could be so kind as to maybe help me explore this, I would be eternally grateful. I was born July 14, 1980, at 4 AM.

Dear Addictive

You were born with your natal Neptune opposite your natal Venus across your sixth and twelfth. This is considered to be sorrowful, addictive, escapist and so forth. I believe that you are coming to a turning point in your life over the course of the next couple of years while transiting Saturn moves through the sign Gemini. This will cause some depression, some physical limitations and could even lead you to a rehab center or institutional type environment. I believe that you can turn things around if you want but I fear that you will have to hit rock bottom before that happens. Your chart indicates that you must be careful not to get involved with someone who is equally as addictive or someone who is already involved with another. What you should be focusing on the rest of this year and the first half of next is what you want to do with the rest of your life regarding your career. Your home and personal life appears to be going through a difficult period as well. It's time to start thinking about your future and getting the help you require.

Article: From Aries

Dear Eugenia,

First of all id like to say congratulations on your readings. In the past 7 years I've printed out and received countless self-analysis and birth charts. A lot have been good but didn't really fit my way of thinking and seeing astrology, I'm an Aries and so a lot of astrologers or society in general just see us as dynamic fast talkers, sex bombs, baby screaming his lungs out not stopping until he gets fed and there might be some truths to that, but it kind of lacks depth. I find what you've done is mix my ascendant Sagittarius, with my moon Libra both mercury and Venus in Pisces & mars in Aries into a great overall picture, I even think you've added Chinese astrology yr of the sheep into it, it would be great to get some advice on more writings and web pages that have similar thoughts and ways of descriptions, cause as you pointed out in your analysis file of me, one of my biggest traits is the continuing search for knowledge & and id love to get your birth details, to see a profile on you. My details are 11 April 1979, 21:30. thanx and keep up the good work.

Dear Aries

Thanks, I am so glad that you have enjoyed my websites. Many people have asked for my particulars so I might as well list them for you. Asc. 1:45 Capricorn, Sun 5 Aries in the 4th, Moon 28 Aquarius in the 2nd, Mercury 19 Pisces in the 3rd, Venus 28 Pisces in the 3rd, Mars 3 Aries in the 4th, Jupiter 27 Capricorn in the 1st, Saturn 0 Virgo in the 8th, Uranus 26 Gemini in the 6th, Neptune 14 Libra in the 10th, Pluto 14 Leo in the 8th. As you can see there are similarities between your chart and mine. My daughter was born on April 11th and we have grown to become best friends over the years. There is nothing wrong with Aries or any other sign for that matter. Each sign contributes to society and if we were to miss one of them the world would definitely be lacking so for those who say they don't like this sign or that they should learn to appreciate what each sign brings to the table. As a rule we do not get along as well with whatever sign falls on our 8th house because of a lack of interests as well as the fact that these relationships do not usually lead anywhere. I have tried to add as much data from as many astrological backgrounds as possible on my astroadvice.com website and it's nice to have one of my members recognize the effort that has gone into making this site so spectacular. I am very proud of what my partner and I have accomplished. He is the Sagittarius mastermind who pulled together all the technology to support all the little extras that I wanted to give to our members. Once again thank you for your support.

Article: Pull Yourself Together

Dear Ms. Eugenia:

I would like an idea of how soon my troubles will last. On August 30, my husband was shot in an attempted mugging. He now has a bullet logged in his back. Fortunately, the bullet did not hit any vital organs, however it does rest less than an inch from his spine. Needless to say, it has caused much anxiety and stress. During his recovery, it was up to me to keep up on all household expenses. Doing everything on one income caused many bills to be put on hold. Hence, late charges, penalties etc. etc. And of course, more stress.

At the end of this month (October) I knew I would finally be "caught up" with all of those bills. My husband has recovered nicely (even though the bullet remains) and I was thanking the higher powers that all was soon to be well once again - until, two days ago, my oldest daughter informed me of a date rape that had also taken place on August 30. Due to the incident mentioned above, she didn't tell me immediately because she saw how the other things were affecting me (she and I are very close). Unfortunately, the rape has led to a pregnancy, soon to be terminated. She is only 15 years old. My doctor had to prescribe a sedative to keep me sane (something I have never, ever had to do before). It is stressing me to no end to think what she is about to go through, hence the sedative. My only question is, based on the position at the time of my birth August 20, 1968, at 3:00 PM can you please give me some idea of how much longer this "negative" cycle will last?

Dear Losing Hope

Your chart indicates stability between now and the end of April therefore you must pull yourself together and do what must be done. Being positive and supportive for your husband and daughter is required for a bit longer. The work and money area of your chart is moving into a favorable cycle. It is important for you to put your efforts there so that you can maintain a normal standard of living as well as keep your mind off some of the things that are stressing you out. If you have too much time on your hands to think about what you and your family have been through you are likely to continue to be depressed as well as suffer from emotional problems. You didn't submit your daughters or your husbands birth data therefore I can not comment on either one.
