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: Timing Confused

Dear Eugenia:

I have to travel overseas to the U.K. to scatter my mother's ashes. I have decided to make this trip late September of this year. As there were many family conflicts at her funeral and has resulted in only some of her family taking part in this farewell. Would you please advise me if this is the best time to do it as there are already some differences of opinions on the timing but as there are so many people, I can't get the timing to accommodate everyone. I want this to be as pleasant as possible for everyone with no more family squabbles. I was the one my mother asked to carry this wish out for her and also I am the only one traveling from overseas. Do you think the timing is okay? I was born July 1, 1949, at 1:20 AM.

Thanking you in anticipation.

Dear Confused

Stop trying to please everyone else. You are the one doing the traveling and all the work to pull this off for your deceased mother. You have been through enough already. Late September is just as good a time as any if you are concerned about your relatives. You will never please them all regardless of the time you choose to scatter your mother's ashes. If you leave it until October you will be dealing with Mercury retrograde and that could create some problems. If you go the last week of September you are moving through better times but I do feel that fatigue and minor ailments may be present. If you leave it until around the middle of November you should find it a little less tiring and stressful.

Article: Isolate and Reverse the Process

Dear Eugenia

I am hoping that you can give me some idea of how long my current bout of bad health will continue. Since November of 1999, I have had infections, sores, fevers and general illness. I was born on November 4, 1952 at 10:53 a.m. I have spent more money on doctors, herbalists, specialists and medicines than I can afford. My professional and personal life has suffered tremendously and I am increasingly wracked with pain. The doctors don't seem to know what is causing it, and for the life of me, I don't know of any psychological or emotional upset that may have triggered any of these problems. Does my chart indicate that my health will soon improve? I am at my wit's end trying to get better. Thank you for your service to so many. I read you daily.

Dear Faithful, but very ill reader

It is apparent by your chart that you are experiencing some sort of poisoning through medication or other substance. It is hard for your body to get rid of the poisonous waste deposits in your system that have built up therefore you must isolate what it is in order to reverse the process. You are extremely hard to diagnose therefore no one is looking for the obvious. It could be to do with the water you are drinking or something that you have been ingesting for some time that you do not realize is potentially dangerous for you. Perhaps as simple as something in your home that you are highly allergic to. If you can't isolate the problem through testing for high contents of lead or other poisonous substances that you may be subject to you could easily continue to suffer from this for the better part of the next year. You should consider doing a series of blood tests that will isolate everything from arsenic to asbestos levels in your body.

Article: What Never Was

Dear Eugenia,

You may have had these type of letters before but I really am stuck.. My heart is broken.

Approximately two years ago I fell in love with a Gemini - born on 11th June 1978 at 12pm. (I am a Cancer born on 3rd July 1979 at 6:05pm). Because I thought we were not compatible - he was too intense for me I broke it off last year. Since then he has met someone else and is now in a serious relationship with her (I don't know her statistics). Now I don't know if we were meant to be. Do Cancer and Gemini usually match. I miss him with all my heart and I always think I have made the wrong decision because I feel he is my soul mate. Is there any way you can tell? How do I re-attract a Gemini?

Dear At Odds

You do match up well to your Gemini friend however the comparison did indicate that you probably weren't all that forthright with the way you felt about one another. He may be a Gemini but he does have his natal Venus in the sign Cancer and that means that he is sensitive, clingy and yes intense when it comes to love. You on the other hand have your natal Venus in Gemini making you far more aloof and laid back regarding such matters. One thing that often occurs with Venus in Gemini is the overwhelming feeling of wanting what you think you can't have. Please be sure before you tamper with your ex's heart again. His chart indicates that the relationship he is in currently is probably not running as smoothly as he would like. You are best to try to win back his friendship first. You are however in a high cycle regarding love and having past lovers come back into your life between late February and mid July. This can also be a good time to find a new love that can help you forget about the one you gave away. You do match up well to those born under the signs Aries, Gemini, Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius.
