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: Myth of the Sun Sign

Dear Eugenia

I'm not sure if this message qualifies for submission, but here is my question. My boyfriend is a Capricorn and I am an Aries, which do not match according to Zodiac signs. But when I complete the romance compatibility we match 99%. So which is right? My birthday is 4/8/70 2pm, His is 1/8/65 don't know time. We don't suffer from the problems stated under a Zodiac match, Aries spending too much and Capricorn being frugal, in fact it is opposite for us. I just want to understand how the zodiac and charts differ so much.

Thank you
confused Aries


Dear Confused Aries

I'm not the least bit surprised that you match up to your Capricorn partner nor that you have some role reversals regarding frugality. Your chart denotes that you only have your natal Sun in Aries and natal Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Saturn in the frugal sign Taurus. Your boyfriend only has his natal Sun in the sign Capricorn with his Mercury and Venus in the more easy-going, spend if you want, sign Sagittarius. The fact that your partner also has his Moon and Saturn in the sign Pisces, his Mars, Uranus and Pluto in Virgo with his Jupiter in Taurus and Neptune in Scorpio gives him just enough down to earth qualities to make your relationship sparkle. Most people don't understand the difference between Sun Sign astrology (entertainment and fun) and real time astrology which is more like a fingerprint of a persons character and life. For anyone who really wants to find out how compatible they are to someone else the best way to do so is to use our compatibility feature that will take an in-depth look at each planet in both charts and accurately determine how good you are for one another.

Article: From Daria

Dear Eugenia,

I have always been told by various persons that I fall into the cusp between two signs-Virgo and Libra.? When I read astrological forecasts, some writers place me as a Virgo and others as a Libra. Dear Eugenia please solve this confusion for me! I was born September 23, 1964 at 9:45 pm.

With sincerest thanks,
Daria


Dear Daria

You are a Libra by Sun Sign but that is where the Libra ends. You have three planets, Mercury, Uranus and Pluto in the sign Virgo, both Venus and Mars in Leo, your Moon and Jupiter in Taurus, Saturn in Aquarius and Neptune in Scorpio. We are all made up of various planets in different signs so don?t put so many onuses on your Sun Sign. In your case your Libra Sun falls in an area that deals with your home environment and that means that you will deal with issues that have to do with home and family using the characteristics of that sign. But when it comes to the way you think and communicate Virgo rules. Regarding how you deal with money and how you can earn a living Leo is the sign that counts. Your personality will sometimes take on the sign Gemini because that is your Rising Sign. You are emotionally stable with your Moon in Taurus and with Jupiter there as well you do know what to do when opportunity arises. You have a creative side with your Neptune in Scorpio in your fifth but because it is poorly aspected to your natal Venus problems with love, children, getting your creative ideas off the ground and letting your money slip through your fingers can be your demise. With Saturn at the top of your chart however if there is a will you will find a way to reach whatever goals you set for yourself. So stop thinking in Sun Sign terms and start realizing how versatile and wonderful you can be given all the signs that you are made up of.

Article: Changes along the Spiritual Path

Dear Eugenia,

Where do I begin as the song says! Since the end of December my life has completely changed. My mother fell very ill nearly died and as a result she is no longer able to live alone. My sister and I agreed that we would never put my mom in a nursing home. So, I moved to a bigger house and moved 2 households into one. My adult children live with me too. I have a job where I like the work I do, but my boss is very verbally abusive, and have been working on making some professional changes (do you show anything in my chart in that regard??)Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining, I am on a Spiritual Path and I know that all these situations are just lessons being learned.

My question to you though is this; According to my chart do you see any particular endeavors that would be better than another for me to pursue? I am now in the travel industry. I have experience in the hospitality industry as well. Healing, Hypnosis (I have certification) and NLP are my love though. I guess what I'm trying to say is I don't know what I want to do when I grow up?? Do you have any suggestions or ideas?? Any help would be great, I would really appreciated it. I thank you in vadvance whether you pick my email or not. Thank you for devoting your time to this web page I love it. I was born February 19, 1949, at 3:10 AM.

Sincerely,
Changes


Dear Changes

You are right about making changes. Your chart indicates that you should be concentrating on your work, money and career. Over the course of the next three years you will have plenty of opportunities to forge ahead in whichever field you decide to pursue. Your chart indicates that you like the unusual and you like to help others. You also show great promise regarding communications, travel, hospitality and so on. I feel that because of this you are probably best to make your money in the later area and take time to enjoy the spiritual path that you desire on the side. Know one should have to put up with an abusive boss. I suggest that you start looking for a new position, if you get your resume out into the market or you approach a headhunter in your industry you should be able to land a decent position between now and the end of September. You will be in a high cycle regarding career moves, changes and advancement during the first half of next year as well. You've taken on a lot but you also have a very giving and loving personality. Romantically you will be in a high cycle throughout next year. Partnerships will be in the picture during the second half of the year. Don't hold back, you can do it all. Get rid of the boss from hell and you'll have the energy to take part in all the aactivities that interest you.
