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?

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:
Hi Eugenia,
I have been a creative person all my life and have a career as a Graphic Artist, but over the past few years my mind began to flow over with ideas for film and television projects. I acted in a friend's short film and have been teaching myself the craft of writing stories for a few years now. I am torn because my identity has always been as a Graphic Artist, but I see myself as a writer. Do you see anything in my chart that would support my making a career change in the near future?
Gemini
Hi Gemini
Yes I do see career change. It has actually been in your chart since the spring of 2003 and isn't about to move off until the end of this decade so get used to it. Your chart does indicate that you are highly creative and should work in a field that allows you to explore many different creative venues. In this day and age people change career direction more often and so you shouldn't be so worried about it. You can always fall back on graphic design or even keep working in that field while you delve into the performing arts and writing. My concern with writing is that although you do have your natal Mercury well aspected to your natal Pluto it does fall in an area of your chart that can sometimes make it difficult for you to get your work (writing) into the mainstream where it can be profitable for you. On the other hand you also have quite a build up of planets in an area of your chart that deals with communication and publishing so I believe that with a little extra effort and good timing you may be able to push your work into the hands of someone who can help you get ahead. You have been going through a transit that can help you with this the past couple of years and you did manage to work in the film and television industry during that time however that transit has moved on for now. Another transit similar will activate again in about four years but that doesn't mean you shouldn't start working in that direction now. After all the more prep work or writing you aspire to between now and that time the more polished your work will be as well as the more sellable when that transit moves into your chart. My suggestion to you is to continue your current work and do your writing on the side with your goal being to start trying to sell it in 2008/2009.

Dear Eugenia,
I came to see you on the show, which was on my birth date of 2002. I came up with my c/l spouse. He even went on camera at the end to say what he thought of the information. His birth date is June 16, 1963; mine September 7, 1964, at 7:22 am. You had concern that with our match up the problems I have been facing for the past seven years that started as he and I started up as a couple, would be not good due to his areas overlapping with mine ie. health.
I watched your show after that to see our taping Show #3 I believe it was because I needed to understand what you had said further. Since that time, my health has gotten considerably worse, and I have no source of income, unless I am approved for CCP disab. I didn't ask for this life. I love him and he me, we have only known hardship since being together. Life is pretty rotten to me why?
Virgo
Dear Virgo
The same problems still exist. With the way your two charts interact with one another it makes the medical and health area of your chart very difficult. I believe that the past two and a half years have probably resulted in health issues for you and I would like to say that your troubles in this area are over but I do believe that you will continue encounter medical problems. Regarding your disability the chance of getting this does appear to be getting better. You should have been working in the health industry, had you done so it may have helped you to ward off some of the transits that you have been fighting for such a long time. Being a health technician or involved in some form of medical research may have helped. Your comparison with your husband will not change and although you may love one another you don't benefit from this connection. Uncertainties will remain. I believe that with the amount of Virgo that you have situated in the twelfth house of your chart with your natal Saturn in Pisces in your sixth that the problems will always be yours not his and that unfortunately his chart having his natal Mercury and Venus in Gemini adversely positioned to your set up in Virgo and Pisces that as long as you are together hardship will prevail. This can make life difficult but if you truly want to be with one another the fight you go through as a couple should pull you closer together even if it does not bring favorable results from a medical standpoint. You also have a tendency to make yourself ill due to worry and stress and this must be something that you work on in order to turn things around. Secondly I suggest that you get involved in some form of educational pursuit that might allow you to pick up the required skills to either work or even volunteer to help out in some form in the medical industry. This more than anything else might help you situation improve. You may not see the value in what I am trying to tell you but I do believe that if you follow suit some improvements will unfold.

Dear Eugenia
I'm a Pisces born February 22, 1964 at 4:30 am, 40 years old and never married and I just met a wonderful man who wants to have children, and might I add, right away. He says we don't have much time since we are both older. He is a Capricorn born in the Philippines Dec 29, 1964 and I admire the way he takes charge, but I was actually leaning towards not having children. The whole concept frightens me, and I am getting older and I am such a Pisces, flitting from thing to thing and never really accomplishing any one concrete direction, fairly successful in my own right, but wonder how I ever am, since I tend to overextend myself and do way too many things at once. I long for someone to help me take charge of my life, simplify it, and make it more relaxed, but I wonder if I am drawn towards him for his steadiness and clarity of direction, his responsibility, his success, and if I choose to be with him, I may end up in a worse situation (overextended, more complicated, less peace and less focus). At 40 I still don't feel I have any clear direction. But if I had to say what I really wanted to do with myself, it would be get up late, jog around the lake, work for a few hours, drive around, read a book, chat with some friends, and walk by the beach. I don't know if having a family would be high on that list, and I think it would just be to satisfy his desire to have a family. But then again, if I don't have a child I wonder if I would regret it when I am older, and maybe it might be nice to choose a successful responsible man and start a family instead of drifting around with the romantic irresponsible men I normally am drawn towards. What do you think?
Pisces
Dear Pisces
I believe you are over-reacting. Having a baby shouldn't make or break a relationship if you truly love one another. The comparison between you and your Capricorn man was okay but it did show some signs of deception and confusion. I believe you need to communicate more about what you both want out of life. Honesty reigns supreme so you had better start talking and if you both aren't on the same page move on. You are in a high cycle regarding love and meeting potential partners or having someone you used to care about come back into your life. You owe it to yourself to get to the bottom of whether or not you want to settle down with your Capricorn friend or set both of you free so that you can meet new people.
Where work and how you earn your living are concerned you are coming into a much higher cycle beginning the last quarter of this year and throughout next year and it is important that you position yourself so that you can take advantage of the opportunities that come along. Your chart indicates that you are confused. Much of your confusion is due to the fact that you were born with your natal Mercury adversely positioned to your natal Neptune. This causes self-deception especially when it comes to your personal likes and dislikes, how well you can do in society and professionally as well as how you relate to both business and emotional partners.
It may be time to reevaluate who you are, what you want and where you see yourself in ten years. If it isn't taking care of the kids and a husband - move on now.
Eugenia
