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

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.

Article: Cancer's Romantic Profile

Dear Eugenia,

My sun sign is in Cancer, I was born July 7, 1979, at 12:15 AM, and I've read enough on astrology to know that I should be compatible with both Virgo and Pisces. My past two relationships were with each, and although lengthy, they proved difficult.I think it may have something to do with my Aries rising. I'm afraid the aggressive nature so common in the ram is a bit intimidating, especially when the aggressor is female. My last fling was with an Aries male, and although at first there were sparks, it quickly diminished. I realize that other aspects affect astrological matchmaking, but I'd like to get your opinion on the matter. What male sign can handle both the Aries stubbornness, and the crab's ultra-sensitivity? My moon is in Sagittarius.

Thank you.

Dear Aggressive Crab

Actually in your particular case the Sun sign match up doesn't work all that well. Normally you should get along well with both Virgo and Scorpio. However, the sign Scorpio falls in an area of your chart that deals with dead end projects so it's unlikely to work. To add to this your natal Jupiter and Mercury are in the sign Leo adversely aspected to the sign Scorpio. The sign Virgo falls in an area that deals with work not personal matters such as relationships plus you have your natal Mars in Gemini and your natal Neptune in Sagittarius and that would clearly play havoc with a strong Virgo. Having your natal Sun in the 4th house adversely aspected to your natal Pluto in the 7th leads me to believe that you will have difficulty with relationships. Now that doesn't mean that you can't have a happy union. Especially with your natal Moon, Neptune, Jupiter and Mercury well aspected to the Pluto in your 7th but it does mean that you will have to choose your partner wisely and realize that relationships don't just happen, they require work, dedication, devotion and perseverance. You match up well to those born under the signs, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn and Aquarius. I suggest that you always run a comparison before you decide to get serious and intimate with someone. Although a person can be born under one of these signs it does not mean that they will have a lot of their natal planets in that sign and this could result in difficulties once again.

Article: From R

Dear Eugenia,

I am desperately in need of your help.? I was in a relationship with a Leo born August 08, 1966.? We were together for 7 years and he ended the relationship approximately 9 months ago and immediately started a relationship with another Leo born August 9, 1956.? I still care for him deeply even though I think he is a loser.? Recently (One month ago) he came back into my life and wants to have a relationship based on his terms (sexual) while still seeing this other person.? Do you see us having any sort of a future together based on compatibility.? I was born March 8, 1957 at 1 AM. He claims that sex was never an issue between us.

?We never really fought over anything when we were together.? I just got tired of his leaning on me financially and think he is now in financial trouble.? I think that is the only reason he wants to be with me.? Please advise as he is the only person who has ever made me truly happy in the past with his sense of humor.?? I need to know whether I should just let go and move on so I am desperate for a reply.? The other woman knows about our previous relationship but she is unaware that he has since cheated on her with me.

Dear R

Your Leo man matches up to both you and his Leo partner in similar ways. I believe that he was probably already seeing her when he was still with you. He has been dishonest and emotionally deceptive with both of you. The comparison he has with her shows sorrow as well. I believe that he wants his cake and eat it to. You must walk away from this situation swiftly. It?s time for you to move on ? meet new people and start a new relationship. Your chart indicates that travel or moving a distance may be a good move on your part if possible. This man is a loser and you deserve someone better. He falls in an area of your chart that deals with dead end projects and that is usually an indication that it won?t last. Don?t let this guy use you sexually - you really don?t know how many other people he is intimate with. Serious consequences are likely. You match up well to those born under the signs Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio and Capricorn.
