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: From Gemini/Cancer

Dear Eugenia

What does being on the cusp mean? Sometimes I'm shown as a Gemini, sometimes Cancer. Although I think I lean more towards Gemini. I was born June 21, 1961 at 1 AM.

Thanks
Gemini/Cancer

Dear Gemini/Cancer

According to your chart you are born under the sign Gemini if the time of birth is accurate set at 1 AM, however, if you were born at 10:31 AM or after on the 21st you are a Cancer by Sun Sign. Don't put too much onus on being one sign or the other. It is the entire package that makes you who you are and helps determine your direction. The time of birth is however very important as a chart changes every four minutes and for someone like me to be accurate I need specific data.

Your natal Mercury (the planet that deals with the way you think and communicate) is in the sign Cancer so that is why you are leaning toward that sign. Your chart also indicates that you have a very strong Leo and Virgo influence with a little Scorpio, Capricorn, Aquarius and Taurus thrown into the mix to make you the person you are.

For the record - if born before 10:31 AM you can call yourself a Gemini if after a Cancer.

Hi James

I'm surprised you've only been married twice after viewing your chart. You do have just as much Sagittarius in your chart as Scorpio but the sign Leo appears to influence you even more. Having your natal Venus in Sagittarius well aspected I don't think you have a problem meeting partners nor do I think you are one to totally commit. The past couple of years and for the next couple of years you are being hit by a transiting planet that is causing great confusion and although this can make it difficult to find a direction it can also open doors and lead you down some very creative and unpredictable pathways that will help contribute to where you end up by around 2008. This can mean a complete lifestyle change but you must be careful not to let someone else be your guru so to speak. I believe when it comes to reaching or fulfilling your goals you tend to hold yourself back from what you really and truly want to do. You must travel back in time and think about your earliest aspirations and if you haven't gone down that road it may be time to take courses or do whatever is necessary in order to fulfill these desires. Love is in a high cycle between now and late summer of next year and you will meet potential partners if you travel or get involved in something that interests you or possibly by getting involved in a totally different way of life than what you are used to. You have a good chart but you are right about being confused. The only way to use this transit that is causing all your confusion positively is to get involved in a creative endeavor, a relationship or a different way of living.

Article: Falling In and Out of Love

Dear Eugenia,

How are you? I visit your site every day. I know you are very busy and dare not to write to you. But now I really have a big problem.

I was born on February 25, 1973 at 00:15am, a Pisces. It seems that I have all the characteristics of this sign, especially the fact that I cannot settle down with one man and I can be totally indecisive. Since the age of 13, I have had 15 lovers. The longest one lasted for 10 years and the shortest one was a 1-night stand. I fall in love suddenly, but after several months, I will get bored and start to love someone else. At present, I have 4 lovers: 2 Taurus, 1 Leo and a Scorpio. I also like other men too but they are not my lovers. I am feeling a lot of pain because of this. Many men like me because I am quite good looking. I do not want to play around but I cannot control myself. Is this because I am a Pisces?

Dear Swimming both ways

Part of your problem stems from natal Moon and Neptune in your chart being conjunct and adversely aspecting your natal Sun and Saturn. This can definitely lead to affairs of the heart. That coupled with the fact that you have your natal Uranus well aspected to your natal Venus in the air signs Libra and Aquarius means that you will attract plenty of lovers and that you are likely to fall in and out of love suddenly. There is nothing wrong with falling in and out of love while you are young and trying to figure out what you truly want in a partner however there will come a time when you should know and want to settle down. In your case you are going to be experiencing your Saturn return in August, September, October of next year and April and May of 2002. When this happens you will start to mature, especially with regard to love. This should lead you into a committed relationship. You match up best to those born under the signs Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Jupiter. The signs Taurus, Leo and Scorpio are fixed signs and they usually hold a grudge so tread carefully dating all these men at the same time. You may have taken on more than you can handle.
