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.

Article: An Imminent Turning Point

Dear Eugenia:

I was born at 12:25 a.m. on 6 May 1972. Around January 2000, Saturn will return to its position in my natal chart, Gemini. My question is this: What significant effects, if any, will the fact that Saturn, Mars, and Venus are all in Gemini (and retrograde, I believe) in my natal chart have on my Saturn return? (or, more generally, what types of influences can I expect during my Saturn return?)

Thanks!
M.

Dear M.

First of all your natal Mars and Venus are not situated close enough to your natal Saturn in order to form a conjunction. Therefore, I would be more concerned with your natal Saturn opposite your natal Neptune when your Saturn returns strikes between May and July of next year and January and March of 2002. With your natal Moon well aspected to both your natal Saturn and Neptune however I feel comfortable saying that it shouldn't be too difficult. Usually your Saturn return results in reevaluating your life. It is a turning point for most people. In your case it will be in an area that deals with such things as making a move from one state to another (which I might add should be favorable) or deciding to further your education for self-purpose or for career advancement. It can also be a time that children will play a role in your life or that you could be taken advantage of financially. It is not a time that you should trust just anyone, especially with your money. You may want to reconsider the way you spend your spare time socializing. If you have been overindulgent it may be the time to cut back or quit altogether. Saturn is a disciplinarian, a teacher, we are to learn from our past mistakes and use this period of renewed awareness to sort through the clutter in our lives and move on in a positive and refreshed manner. You shouldn't fight Saturn influences, but instead learn to accept the situation you are in and find the most suitable way to make the changes necessary to better your life.

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.

Article: Not a Small Problem

Dear Eugenia,

I'm only 12 years old. Most adults wouldn't take this serious, but I hope you will. This is my problem. I have two friends. They are both guys. One is my best friend which I will refer to as M, and the other one I'm dating and I will refer to him as R. I kind of had something going on with M, but it was a friendly thing. M doesn't like R, so that makes it hard. Recently M called to tell me I would have to choose. I don't know whom to choose. My birth date and time is May 1, 1988 6:45 p.m. M's birth date is July 8 1988. R's birth date is August 19 1988. Unfortunately I don't have the birth times. I would really appreciate it if you reply to this letter. Thank you for taking your time to read this letter. I hope you give me a reply and advice or clues. Thank you once again!!!

Dear Taurus

Both M and R match up in similar ways to your chart. In the case of M he claims to be your friend but proceeds to put an ultimatum on you. A friend wouldn?t do that. Also in your comparison with M deceptiveness is present so it is obvious that he isn?t telling you how he really feels about you. Keep in mind that friends are there forever and lovers come and go. Regarding R the comparison shows sorrow, which means that it will probably end with one of you getting hurt. You have your natal Venus in Gemini and this generally means that you will attract plenty of romantic opportunities throughout your life. You will be coming into a high cycle next year that not only will bring such happenings but will also leave you open to unwanted pregnancy if you aren?t careful. You may be young but one thing can lead to another and before you know it you can find yourself in a whole lot of trouble. You are best to opt for friendship for now. If both M and R are willing to be friends with you, that?s great. If either tries to push for more it should be your cue to end the connection.
