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: A State of Flux

Dear Eugenia,

I have this wonderful friend in my life that I share so much with. We travel together, make art, shop, talk for hours, go on midnight adventures, love the same food, find each other hilarious, hug every time we say goodbye, and can't spend two days apart. I haven't had a man in my life, long term, for over three years. This guy seems to have found his way into my life, and my heart, but is it more than friendship? What are the possibilities for us? My birthday is Feb 12/76 (4:15pm), his is June 27/75 (4:15am). I was told that my moon is Cancer (his sun), and his moon is Aquarius (my sun). Is that right? What does that mean for us? We both seem to be in a state of flux right now. Will we still be close over the next year? Thank you for all your insights.

Dear Hopeful Girl

The comparison does show a definite admiration between the two of you. I am a big believer that you have to be friends before you become lovers. That doesn't mean that you won't have chemistry. The stronger the chemistry is the more important it is to go slow and build the friendship first. In your particular case you do have your Moon in Cancer and he does have his Moon in Aquarius and this is a start. The problem I feel that you are facing is that even though he was born under the warm Cancer sign he has a few elements in his chart that tell me he is not going to want to settle down at a young age. If for some reason he does I fear it won't be lasting. He is not always honest with himself or with his partners and this can lead to problems. You are best to remain friends for now. He is going through changes this summer as well as throughout next year and it would be sad if you jumped into a hot intimate relationship only to lose the friendship that you both enjoy. He is going to have to be the one to make the move and if he should do so especially over the course of the next year I think that it will end in disappointment. As for you, you are in a high cycle where love is concerned until the end of January. Therefore, don't miss out on opportunities with other potential partners because you only have eyes for your friend. Get out and meet like-minded people. You match up to those born under the signs Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Capricorn and Pisces.

Article: From Leo

Hi Eugenia

I have been dating my boyfriend for 4 yrs now. He wants me to move in with him...and I don't want to. We see each other 1-2 days a week and I am happy with the way things are right now. I was married for 25 yrs before my divorce and my kids are now grown and I like living by myself. My fear is that my boyfriend will leave me soon...if I don't give in and move in with him. He has been very understanding but I don't know how much longer I can keep him from asking the big questions of why?? I wonder lately if maybe he is not the right man for me. That is why I wont make this wholehearted commitment to him. Thanks. His birth date is May 21, 1956 and mine is August 5, 1952 at 1 am.

Hi Leo

Bingo - you answered your own question. He is not right for you. Although there are many planets that hook up between your chart and his very few of them are actually favorable. You are coming into a high cycle regarding love; romance and meeting Mr. Right beginning late this summer so open your eyes, your heart and your mind to someone who is more likeminded. You match up well to those born under the signs Aries, Gemini (just not this Gemini), Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius.

Article: Need a Quiet Time

Dear. Eugenia,

This is the first time for me to try this out so bear with me! My life lately has been busy with work, school, friends, and family and I never seam to find time for myself. Lately I have been catching myself slipping up on important things like my homework and spending time with my friends.

I don't really understand why I am doing this; I'm not the type of person to slack in school and especially with my friends. I have tried to sit down and make myself do homework and talk to my friends, but I just can't. Can you tell me if I am ever going to get out of this stage? I was born April 15, 1983, at 1:03 PM.

Dear Completely lost

Your chart indicates that you are going through a lot of changes and this can cause confusion and an inability to concentrate on what it is you are supposed to be doing. Your life is busy right now and that is not about to change over the course of the year ahead. You will have to take the time you require and pamper yourself a little or you will find that it will become impossible for you to get your work done or give the time required to your friends. The friends that are worth spending time with will understand if you tell them how burnt out you are and that you need quiet time to yourself. In fact they will probably help you out if they can in order to free up some of your time. Communication is all that is required. Tell others how you feel and what you are experiencing and they will help you get through it. Regarding your educational pursuits, you should find it easier to concentrate next year.
