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: In Need of Direction

Dear Eugenia,

Sometimes I feel confused, I want to be an actress and I want to complete my college education but the question is where? In San Diego or Los Angeles. I feel whatever school I get accepted to I'm going for it no matter where I am. I feel that I can do it. I feel like I'm going in the right direction but my question to you is am I going in the right direction, is the path that I am taking positive. I was born May 22, 1974, at 8:09 PM.

Dear Direction

Your chart does show talent in an area that deals with radio, film and television, especially over the next few years. This is not the time to be sitting idle but instead a period that you must be willing to focus on your goals and prepare to do whatever is necessary in order to get ahead. You must not sit and think about it. Get yourself moving. You will do well in your educational pursuits as long as you focus on your goals. I also feel strongly that you should be signing up with an agent who can start you moving in the direction that you want to go. Hands on experience will turn out to be some of your best training. You are certainly suited to act, however you have other talents to discover and consider. Writing is also a strong possibility. Your communication skills look quite promising as well as prosperous. Your biggest draw back will be your inability to recognize what your greatest talents are. You will have to be far more critical when it comes to your talent if you ever expect to become an expert in the field of entertainment. Don't tell everyone how good you are. Be critical of yourself but be sure to keep your confidence level up. If you believe in yourself, I believe you can make it.

Article: False Hope

Dear Eugenia,

Today my doctor notified me that my Pap smear showed abnormal cells & she wants me to see a Gynecologist. In 1964 I had a Hysterectomy because I had cervical cancer. They left one ovary. I am 70 years old, live by myself, and I?m scared stiff. What is my outlook, please tell me. I believe it is better to know what is coming at you, then to have false hope.

Dear EP

Your chart indicates the possibility of poor diagnosis therefore whatever the prognosis I would suggest that you get a second opinion. You appear to have some difficult transits moving through you?re the health areas of your chart but it is apparent that you can avoid serious problems if you are quick to discover and take care of any illness you suffer from. I do not feel that you are moving into a life threatening period however there are indications you may have problems with your heart or lungs over the course of the next couple of years. Therefore, it is important that you stay on top of your health in order to remain well.

Article: From Leo

Dear Eugenia,

This is a little dramatic (I'm a LEO born August 8, 1980 at 2:07 pm!) but I feel as though I am having a bit of quarter life crisis. I have only been doing the 9 to 5 thing a couple of years and already I just don't see myself being able to do it another 30+ more. I have thought of pursuing more creative endeavors such as writing or even astrology, but then there is also the matter of having to make a living. So my question is about my career path: Is this just a temporary rut and more a matter of finding the right 9 to 5 or should I be going a different route altogether?

Thanks!
Leo

Dear Leo

Some people just don't do well with major routine. I believe that you can fit into a schedule if you like what you are doing however currently you are going through restlessness in an area of your chart that deals with how you earn your living. I feel that you may make a mistake if you are impulsive due to the type of transits that you are experiencing. My suggestion is to try something creative on the side but don't give up your day job. I worked in a routine job for the first seven years while I built up my astrological business. That is quite often what it takes - you have to support your addiction to your art. I do believe that you have creative talent and that you can obtain recognition for whatever you decide to pursue but not without hard work, dedication and paying the bills so that you don't have to worry about the roof over your head. You do show some talent where writing is concerned. If you really hate your 9 to 5 job consider another position that allows you to travel about more like a sales position or something that isn't quite as confining while you work on your own goals. I believe that if you work hard you may begin to see some recognition in about 4 years.
