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,
Many years ago I consulted an astrologer about my chances of marrying happily, and he replied, "Do you really want to know?" He seemed so evasive and reluctant that I didn't push it. A year or two later I met my husband (9/17/53) and we have been together for nearly fifteen years. I have since learned a little about astrology and decided that the reason the astrologer was so reticent is that I have Neptune in Scorpio in the seventh house. I think this has manifested mostly in my husband's struggles with alcohol; about three years ago he finally made a major effort and got his drinking under control. Unfortunately at the same time-- I wonder if it was the catalyst-- I reconnected with an old friend (11/11/61) who is in the same line of creative work I am. Although this relationship upset my husband I did not give it up. I realize that this person is a friend and not a suitable candidate for husband/father (we have three children) but I cannot convince my husband that is the case, even though I have been faithful to him and the other relationship is somewhat tenuous. Is it that my husband is being super controlling or am I not being honest? If I give up my friend will my husband go back to drinking? The astrology books are not very reassuring on the Neptune in the seventh house thing, so I wonder if I am stuck with relationship weirdness no matter what, or if I would just be better off being a nun. My birthday is 4/4/65, at 6 AM.
Thank you--

Dear "Doomed by Neptune"
First of all your Neptune may be in your seventh house but it is well aspected to your natal Saturn and Pluto and yes it does oppose your Moon and Jupiter as well but don't lose sight of the fact that the Moon is well aspsected to both Saturn and Pluto as well. This should give you an overall positive skew on your relationship capability. Now you are right regarding partners being of an escapist nature but that doesn't mean that you can't have a successful relationship and that your current partner can't pull his act together. This set up can be highly creative sexually if that's where the energy is put and obviously you and your husband did just that, the result being your three children. With your Neptune Jupiter opposition and of course Jupiter being in your first house you can tend to overreact a bit and may not be totally honest with yourself or your partner at an emotional level. I feel that your past acquaintance is really not the issue as you do not match up to him well. As a matter of fact it is more like a sister brother connection and a strained one at that. Your Scorpio friend falls in an area of your chart that deals with dead end projects. As for your husband your comparison was okay but sorrow does prevail especially with regard to his drinking problem. With his natal Neptune in an adverse position to his natal Uranus I believe that he could fall off the wagon from time to time. However, it probably won't be the result of your friendship with your Scorpio friend. Your Scorpio however should only be someone that you deal with as a direct result of work and nothing more. If you want your marriage to work you and your husband will have to work together in order to keep his problem under control. If he can't handle it and continually gets inebriated you will have to make a decision based on what's best for you and your children. Your husband falls in an area of your chart that deals with children and partying and that is probably how things started out some 15 years ago however times have changed and he's going to have to pull up his socks or expect to lose his family.

Dear Eugenia,
I am involved in a love triangle and I am unsure if I should continue the relationship I have going with this man. I am a Taurus who was born on May 14 1973 at 2:12pm. The man I'm involved with is a Sagittarius who was born on December 11, 1966. The third person in this triangle is also a Taurus like me. She was born on May 10, 1971. I am wondering if this relationship is worth pursing or should I move on. Is there enough compatibility between us or is he more compatible with the other Taurus?
Taurus
Dear Taurus
Astrologically your Sagittarius friend matches up to the other Taurus but that is not to say that they will end up together. You are both dealing with a man who first of all is a born bachelor. He will always have a roving eye and will never pass up an opportunity that comes along should he be enticed. In both comparisons it was evident that he is not honest with either one of you. He is emotionally deceptive with her and out and out deceptive with you about just about everything. My best advice is to move on quickly. You are in a high cycle regarding love and romance so don't let this guy hold you back. Get out, meet new people and get on with your life. I must warn you however that his interest will probably peek if he thinks he is going to lose you but don't be fooled it will only last as long as he thinks you are slipping away. It's the challenge this man likes. You match up well to those born under the signs Taurus, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius and Pisces.

Dear Eugenia,
I've read through your archives and have personally written to you before. I find your advices very sound and good. I hope you could help me on my current situation.I am in a relationship for about one and a half months. I know I am very selfish that I am still looking for Miss Right while in this relationship. My current girlfriend initiated this relationship and I somehow feel that this is not the right one. But because I never had a girlfriend before, I jumped at this chance without much consideration. I was hoping if you could tell me more about what the stars have for my relationship. And also, I don't seem to be meeting new friends. Is it because I am still with a girlfriend?My birthday is 29 Dec 1976, about 12 midnight, and hers is 18 Apr 1982. I do not know of her birth time.
Thank you

Dear Stuck
Your current relationship does show some sorrow. You should never tell someone you love him or her unless you honestly mean it. You are extremely changeable regarding love and you are up for sudden romantic interludes as well as infatuations. You would probably do best if you were on your own and free to experience many different relationships. This would enable you to understand what it is that you really want with regard to a partner. I believe that you need to be with someone who will not curtail your freedom, will be able to keep up with you, will stimulate you both mentally and physically and who will be able to share your interests.
