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?

Dear Eugenia,
I need your help! I have tried for a response before, but came up empty. I adore your column and hope you can advise me on my situation. I am a 38-year old mother of two who has been overweight ever since I had my first child. My father's death (which was close in the proximity of having my children) threw it over the edge. I feel that I need to lose weight and become healthier if not for me, for the sake of my children. I want to see them grow up and be successful. I am planning on starting a diet next week and I was curious about the timing. Does my chart indicate a success for me losing the weight? I have tried all the fad diets and pills, and they just don't work. Thank you for your time!
Need to Change
Dear Need to Change
It is never a good time to start a diet when transiting Jupiter is in conjunction with your natal Sun and Mercury and unfortunately that is the case until the end of May of next year. You must however try to at least maintain your weight during this period without getting discouraged. Therefore yes the diet is a must but coupled with exercise and the expectation that you will not put on any more weight. After that period when transiting Saturn starts to approach your natal Venus followed by your natal Mercury and then the Sun you will have a much better chance of losing the excess weight. This is a long process but certainly a worthwhile one and one that you can achieve. You must however be prepared to incorporate exercise, diet, a means to boost your ego and help you to feel good about yourself again. I suggest joining a group that will give you the support you need along with a fitness center for women where you will get the encouragement as well.

Dear Eugenia,
I've just started on my first ever relationship. My past failures to court a girl were mainly due to the fact that I think too much. So, when I met this girl, I plunged straight in without giving second thoughts. But now, I found that we are not that compatible. Could you give me some advice on this relationship, if it's going to be a good lasting one for both of us.
My birth date is 29 Dec 1976, time about 5 past 12 midnight. Her birth date is 18 Apr 1982. I do not know of her time of birth.

Dear Took the Plunge
I believe that the comparison is just adequate as there are some signs of sorrow. This particular girl is an Aries and that is the sign that falls in an area of your chart that deals with relationships so I understand why you were attracted to her. However, she isn't that strong of an Aries. I believe that problems will arise when dealing with friends and family and that you will have to be very open and honest with one another if you want this relationship to work. If you are ready to move on by all means do so quickly as you are in a high cycle regarding love and romance and meeting potential partners right now so you should be out having fun and interacting with others.

Dear Eugenia
I am always very happy but my problem is always money.
I have recently ended a 9 year relationship with a Leo.
Do you think I will ever find that mister right? I was born October 20, 1959, at 8 am.
Libra
>Dear Libra
Although you have another year of hard work ahead of you it is a great time to learn, pick up new skills, raise your earning potential until about this time next year. After that you will be in a high cycle where work, employment and higher wages are concerned. How much more you earn will be directly linked to how much knowledge you pick up this year. Regarding love you will also find it much easier during the fall of next year but that doesn't mean that you won't meet someone before that time. It just means that you are likely to become more serious at that time. Try to focus on work and money for now as well as getting involved in organizations that you believe in or educational pursuits that will bring you in contact with people who have similar interests. There is no reason why you can't meet Mr. Right but a Leo probably isn't going to be the one. You match up well to Aries, Taurus, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces.

Happy Birthday: You're best to give yourself as many options as possible. When one door closes, another will open if you are receptive to trying something new. Security will come from your resourcefulness and ability to adapt to the changes unfolding around you. A domestic situation will require your undivided attention, and the choices you make will influence your lifestyle. Choose the path that leads to peace of mind and overall well-being. Your numbers are 3, 11, 17, 22, 35, 38, 44.
