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'm giving this one more try. I've sent an email to you in the past, however even though unanswered I wasn't really getting to the point. So here goes. When I met my husband in 1993, I thought for sure that he was my soul mate (his dob: 4/21/65/ my dob: 6/15/63). Before I met him, I met a palm reader who told me many things that came true, including that I would meet my soul mate. Things were going well, however this year I find myself questioning if he is the "one". I never gave it a thought a few years ago, but now I'm wondering. I've also found much interest in a man that I work with (4/10/66) and am trying very hard not to think of him other than a friend and co-worker. But I'm having such a hard time. It's not just a feeling of attraction, but a very strong feeling of a connection with this person for some reason. Am I totally out of line feeling this way or could there be something there.
Thank You,
Looking for true love
Dear Looking for true love
You don't actually match up all that well to either of the men in question. The reason why you are in doubt of the relationship with your husband at this time is because the natal Venus and Mercury in your chart are conjunct transiting Jupiter while your natal Mars, Uranus and Pluto are being squared by Jupiter. This can cause confusion, a need to make changes in your relationship and erratic behavior on your part. I would guess that part of the reason you find yourself attracted to the Aries at work is because you are already dissatisfied with your relationship with your Taurus husband. I think that you have a lot of thinking to do and that you may want to seek counseling in order to help you work through your feelings. It appears to me that you will also be meeting many more potential mates over the course of the next two years and that you will face on going problems if you don't deal with your marriage quickly. Question your true feelings for your husband and start the communications rolling either with him, a counselor or both. You need to make the necessary changes in order to get on with your life. You actually match up well to those born under the signs Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius. You do work well with Aries but it isn't wise for you to mix business with pleasure.

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.

Dear Eugenia,
I am a Taurus, 17 May 1971, 2:28 GMT Newcastle upon Tyne, England. For the past year I feel as though my life has been shaken to the very foundations. I divorced my womanizing, lying, cheating Arian husband and I resumed my Masters Degree at university. I am normally such a reserved person but these days I seem to be controlled by higher things. I know my Saturn return is coming up and my chart may be affected by the recent build up of planets in my sign.
However, after all of this cosmic clearing out in my life I feel as thoughit's all been an anti-climax. What is the likely affect of these planetary configurations on my chart? I feel something good will come of it but feelas though I'm denying myself the true experience of it all. Thanks for the great site by the way, I've been here since 98.
Starting Over
Dear Starting Over
I feel that you will see the affects of the planets moving through your sign when transiting Jupiter and Saturn conjunct your natal Sun and Saturn. You have obviously been doing what you are supposed to be doing with your Saturn return, that being, reevaluating your life up to this point and making the changes necessary to make your life and yourself better. Your chart will be going through some nice cycles throughout this year where legal and financial matters are concerned. Educationally you are coming into a really nice high cycle for the course of the next few years and you should be following this direction through apprenticeships, travel, courses or self-improvement. You have a lot to look forward to. It's time to focus on yourself and that is exactly what you are planning to do. The sign Aries isn't necessarily a bad sign for you to get involved with however this sign can bed bounce. If you meet another one, don't rule him out but do a comparison and make sure that you don't have any negative or deceptive aspects. You also match up well to those born under the signs Cancer, Virgo and Capricorn.
