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 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:
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.

Dear Eugenia
I am a third child of 6 boys. I was the only one that was born on my mother's birthday November 29, 1955, at 6:15 AM. Could this circumstance be part of the reason, that I have never had a normal relationship with a woman?
Sagittarius
Dear Sagittarius
I do not believe being born the same day as your mother has anything to do with your relationships with woman however your chart indicates that with your natal Sun and Mercury in the sign Sagittarius opposite your Moon (representing your mother and women in general) in an area of your chart that deals with your relationships there are issues to be dealt with. Sagittarians are not the most likely to want to settle down in the first place and don't usually do so with ease until they are in there second half of life. The only way a relationship works for them at an early age is when the person they are involved with is not clinging or restricting their freedom. Don't blame yourself; it takes two to tango. You have probably just been in relationships with the wrong partners. You would do well with someone born under the signs Aries, Gemini, Libra, Sagittarius or Aquarius. Don't give up hope love and romance is in a high cycle for you this year with the most strategic period being the summer of next year.

Dear Eugenia,
There's really not as much of a "problem" as there are questions. I have been dating my boyfriend for four and a half months. This is the second time we have dated; we dated for six months about two years ago. Our relationship before was not a great one, but I have always had a place for him in my heart. We went two years without seeing each other once. We haven't left each others side since we ran into each other at a restaurant four and a half months ago. This "go around" is nothing like last time. We have a wonderful relationship. We intend on getting married some time next year. I wanted to know if you are able to tell me if you see this relationship succeeding. I believe that it will, but I wanted to know if you could let me know how you see this turning out. If it helps you any his birthday is 10/08/1980, not sure of the time and mine is October 9, 1981, at 7:51 pm. Thank you!!!

Hi Tiffani
The comparison is good and I think you have a terrific chance at making this one work as long as you keep your communication open and honest. You have been in a high cycle regarding love, romance and having someone good from your past come back into your life since August of last year so your timing is right. I believe that you should make your plans and proceed with confidence. Wishing you all the best.
