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.

Article: From Virgo

Dear Eugenia Last

In Nov of 2000 my son (born April 16, 1984 at 4:10 p.m.) developed a serious mental disease. This has been particularly hard on my younger son (born June 30, 1986 at 12:07 a.m.) and he has decided not to come home anymore because he is treated so poorly by his brother. At the same time my husband, born August 4,1950, has coped with this by staying a work most of his waking hours. To add to the mess he has an employee that he thinks is just perfect and she has been wiggling and giggling her way into our lives for nine years. I have repeatedly asked him to get her out of our lives but he refuses to do so. Since my son's illness started I have been the stay at home mom, nurse, whatever. As well as dealing with my son I also took care of my dad in his last year. He was very sick for a very long time and he had a mitt-full of health issues that made his passing very slow and painful. I have reached a point where all I feel is pain and I am trying to find some way to change my life. Do you have any suggestions - I was born August 24, 1950 at 6:50 PM.

Dear Virgo

Lets address your relationship with your husband first. You neglected to mention the birth date of his wiggly giggly gal at the office leaving me nothing to work with regarding what's actually going on between them. I can tell you however that last year he was in a cycle that is conducive to having an affair and that he was born with the major sign of sorrow in his chart when it comes to relationships. He does not deal with health issues very well so God forbid he ever get ill himself. He has turned a blind eye on his family when you and your boys needed him the most. This is not the sign of a very strong man or partner and you should seriously consider what you are going to do about your marriage should he not agree to go to counseling to fix the problems you are experiencing. Somehow I don't think he will but you have to ask. With transiting Saturn still moving through an area of his chart that deals with his attitude toward his partner I'd say he is closed to any ideas that suggest fixing what's wrong and is probably in denial because it is the easy way out.

You on the other hand have been a glutton for punishment and you have to put an end to it before you become ill. Being a Virgo it is hard to give in to failure and move on but sometimes it's the only means of survival. The area of your chart that deals with partnerships, marriage etc has been and will continue to go through a make it or break it period so if you don't seek help it is likely to go downhill. You are actually however in a high cycle regarding love this year with transiting Jupiter favorably aspecting your natal Venus however it is not likely that you will get the chance to take advantage of this unless you opt to kick your husband out immediately and move on. It can however help you should you be able to convince your husband to seek help and counseling. Both you and your husband are heading into your second Saturn return during the second half of next year. This is a period of reevaluating your life and making choices that will alter your future. If you both haven't already been thinking along these lines already you will be soon. This period of time will be conducive to making the effort to do something about your relationship or move on. You both went through your first Saturn return in 1979 - if you think back to that time and what you were experiencing it will help you to make the right decision now.

Your sons are a completely different story. There is no excuse for your son with mental disorders to abuse his younger brother and you and your husband should never have let this happen. Your younger son is a Cancer and family means a lot to him. Fortunately he is coming into better times right now and I believe if he can manage to move on he will do just fine however he may

Dear San

I answer letters that come from people all over the world. I choose letters based on the content as well as the accuracy of the data that is provided. I'm sorry if you felt that I was avoiding people from your country. As a matter of fact I receive a large number of my mail from your country and have answered many of your fellow countrymen. As for you the comparison with your Cancer girlfriend was not that great. You did not give me much background on your tradition and family beliefs however considering the country that you are from I can only assume that the charts have been checked out by a local astrologer and the results weren't that promising. Your chart indicates that you will meet the love of your life during the second half of next year first half of 2003. What you should be focusing on is your professional career for the next eighteen months. You are likely to meet someone special through work related activities or a colleague. You match up well to those born under the signs Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius and Aquarius.

Article: From Leo

Dear Eugenia

How do I get a reading done from you?? I watch your show, but it seems like you are in Toronto. How does one get a reading if they live in Vancouver from you? I also want to know whether it is a good time for me to return back to school. I work in the Construction Industry and I am thinking of taking some industry related courses. I am also concerned about my love life, I haven't been in a relationship since 1996, at that point I let go of a six-year relationship and felt we were going different directions. I dated someone in 2002 for about 6 weeks and it suddenly ended. What is in store for me now? I am pretty sociable; I try not to go to the bars to meet men, where else would you suggest?? The gentleman from 2002, is there another possibility for us, all I know is he was born Feb 6, 1965.

Please give me some guidance, as I feel I am at a loss with my life situations right now. My birth data is August 12, 1966 @ 3:30 am.

Thank you Eugenia!

You will find it easier to return to school or to take course later this year and next however in the mean time the area of your chart that deals with your profession is moving into a high cycle over the next couple of months so you may want to take a last stab at finding something that you really enjoy doing during this period. Regarding your relationships I believe that you will have some opportunities to meet someone through your new position. You did have a good comparison with t he gentleman in question however I feel that the timing was probably wrong. If you want to check him out again I suggest that you contact him in June/July. I will be offering an email consulting service very shortly. My web master is working on this feature and hopes to have it fully operational by April.
