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?

Dear Eugenia,
I am in need of some advice/help/ something. My husband and I spilt last October, after 9 years. It wasn't a very nice spilt to say the least. But he has finally moved on and has a new life and a new girlfriend.
Me, I am working now and my daughter and I finally have a place of our own instead of living with family. We live pay check to pay check. It's not the greatest of apartments, but it's mine and I know one day we'll have better.
I am ready to move on with my personal life, but am having difficulty. My imagination gets ahead of me, and I don't know if it's because I'm just out of the swing of things, or it's because I came out of a really bad relationship. I've met someone, who there is a strong connection with. His birth info is July 30, 1970, mine is March 31, 1970, at 2:59 PM. I don't know the time of birth. We've chatted several times and stared at each other across the room. I finally got up the courage to ask him out for a drink, he said yes and I gave him my phone number. He called and we had a lovely a conversation. This is all foreign territory for me and I'm making myself a nervous wreck. I want to pursue this relationship, but at the same time am having so many doubts that it is driving me crazy. Any help, insight, advice would be so welcome.
Nervous
Dear Nervous
Your chart indicates that you can overreact at an emotional level especially where love and romance are concerned. The comparison however is quite good but there is a Mercury/Neptune square that can cause one or both of you to with hold important information about yourself at a personal level. I believe that you should take it slowly but definitely follow through. I feel that this connection can be long lasting and good for both of you as long as you are equally upfront, honest and sincere about your feelings and your direction in life. It is apparent that he may have suffered from some relationship disappointment during the past year and if this is the case he may be somewhat shy to get involved too quickly. Develop the friendship and see where it goes. You match up well to those born under the signs Aries, Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius.

Dear Eugenia,
I received an email from an astrologer regarding my soul mate. She said that in the next 56 days I need to be in the right place and time in order to meet this person, but the detailed information came with a price tag of ($60). Can you give me a little more insight on where and what I need to look for so I don't to miss my opportunity? I was born Apr.25, 1973 at 2:51pm.

Dear wondering
You currently have Neptune at an adverse aspect to your natal Venus. This can result in attracting someone who is not necessarily good for you. It can be someone who is dishonest, escapist or overindulgent so I don't know where this person is getting her information. I can tell you however that it does not mean that you can't meet someone who is good for you as well if you are careful. Although your chart indicates that June 27 and July 1 are opportune days for love and romance Mercury is in retrograde until July 16 and this usually means that you are best not to start something new. Your chart also indicates that you can find love around the end of September beginning of October and although you will continue to have the poor Neptune transit the Mercury retrograde will not be present. You match up well to those born under the signs Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces. You need to get involved in organizations that you believe in and you will have a better chance of meeting someone with similar interests and beliefs. Where your chart really shines over the course of the next few years is pertaining to your work and money. You should be focusing on climbing the career ladder for now and the rest will fall into place.
I don't blame you for wondering about the email your received. A colleague who works for my syndicate brought this method of selling astrological or psychic goods to my attention earlier this year. She had been sent an email out of the blue and found it alarming because it made her feel compelled to pay money for information she didn't ask for. She contacted me immediately and the following article was written to try to help people like yourself avoid this kind of scam.
Fortune-Telling Scam Hits Web U.S. FEATURE (Evergreen)-- The oldest psychic-astrology scam in the world has hit the Internet. E-mail arrives in your mailbox from someone who claims he has stumbled across your name or e-mail address while looking for a friend. The sender happens to be a "psychic-astrologer" and feels a connection to your name. The so-called psychic knows something big will happen in your future and, for a small fee, he will consult the stars and do a reading. That's what happened to Darla Walker, an employee for a Kansas City-based Internet company. "This stranger approached me by e-mail to say that, when she stumbled on my name in a directory, she got very strong vibrations about something big that was about to happen in my life. She encouraged me to get a full astrological reading immediately and suggested a visit to her Web site where readings are advertised for $60. "The e-mails didn't stop with the first one. She built a sense of impending crisis, telling me I would miss the opportunity of a lifetime if I didn't get a reading immediately. I'm not normally superstitious, but it was effective. I was both curious and concerned, but not desperate enough to risk the money or my credit card information to a complete stranger on the Web." It's hard to remain objective when someone appeals to your sense of curiosity, says Eugenia Last, a professional astrologer with over 25 years of experience. Last studied at The Institute of Astrological Studies and others. Her column, "The Last Word in Astrology," is syndicated all over the world through Universal Press. She has written five books, has her own Web sites and makes frequent media appearances.

Hi! Eugenia
I have been having problems with my husband for the past three years (the amount of time we have been married). My husband is financially irresponsible and has a substance abuse problem he doesn't want to admit too. I get so frustrated when he's using drugs. I have even hit him a couple of times (which I have never done before) I get so upset to see him that way and wonder why I am with a person like him. I also just had a baby (not planned but overjoyed!). My baby has become the focus of my life and I want to give him everything. I am fed up with my husband and want to leave him but it has been really hard. He will not leave. I feel like my life is in pause because I can't achieve any of my goals. I am the sole provider of the house. He doesn't help with the bills. Will things change? I really want a better life for me & my baby. What should I do?
I was born July 26, 1973, at 7:41 PM.
Fed Up
Dear Fed Up
The fact that you didn't even mention when your husband was born leads me to believe that you have fallen out of love with this man. It's hard to get that love back when too much has gone wrong. I believe that you are asking me to make a decision for you which I can not do however I can tell you that you are going through your first Saturn return and this is a period where you reevaluate your life and make decisions to stagnate or turn things around. Your husband has a problem and unless he is willing to recognize this and do something about it there is no point wasting your time or subjecting your baby and yourself to his abuse. You must give him an ultimatum to get help and if he doesn't oblige it will be time for you to leave. If you own your house jointly and he won't leave or sign the papers to put the house up for sale you must take legal action. If you rent take your baby and get out. The little bit of cash you lose is not worth putting up with his irresponsibility. On making these comments I do however wish that you had provided me with both your husbands and your babies birth data so that I could get a total view of your situation and if your husband has the capacity to turn his life around for the sake of his family. If you believe in your heart that he doesn't than take the baby and run.
Eugenia
