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 know you receive many letters but I have written several times with no response. I am desperate. I cannot find a job, no matter where I look. Rejection, rejection, rejection in every aspect of my life (love, social, work, income). I would love to settle in one relationship and a income area. It seems there is a wall blocking me from progress. Can you give me some direction pleas-s-s-se? My birth date is April 11, 1953.
In despair.
Dear In despair
You have been experiencing Saturn moving through your first house and that can limit opportunities however I believe that as Saturn moves into the later degrees of the sign Gemini it should help you where work is concerned. It is apparent that you can however be your own worst enemy when it comes to interviews etc. You should be working in an environment that is either an institution, government agency, bank, hospital etc. If you need to pick up additional knowledge you may consider going through the government work programs and pick up a skill that will help you land a job in the medical field. Such as a technician or lab analyst. Romantically you will be in a high cycle next summer so for now focus on work, learning new skills and getting into the work force. You will probably meet someone special through the job you land.

Dear Eugenia,
Many years ago I consulted an astrologer about my chances of marrying happily, and he replied, "Do you really want to know?" He seemed so evasive and reluctant that I didn't push it. A year or two later I met my husband (9/17/53) and we have been together for nearly fifteen years. I have since learned a little about astrology and decided that the reason the astrologer was so reticent is that I have Neptune in Scorpio in the seventh house. I think this has manifested mostly in my husband's struggles with alcohol; about three years ago he finally made a major effort and got his drinking under control. Unfortunately at the same time-- I wonder if it was the catalyst-- I reconnected with an old friend (11/11/61) who is in the same line of creative work I am. Although this relationship upset my husband I did not give it up. I realize that this person is a friend and not a suitable candidate for husband/father (we have three children) but I cannot convince my husband that is the case, even though I have been faithful to him and the other relationship is somewhat tenuous. Is it that my husband is being super controlling or am I not being honest? If I give up my friend will my husband go back to drinking? The astrology books are not very reassuring on the Neptune in the seventh house thing, so I wonder if I am stuck with relationship weirdness no matter what, or if I would just be better off being a nun. My birthday is 4/4/65, at 6 AM.
Thank you--

Dear "Doomed by Neptune"
First of all your Neptune may be in your seventh house but it is well aspected to your natal Saturn and Pluto and yes it does oppose your Moon and Jupiter as well but don't lose sight of the fact that the Moon is well aspsected to both Saturn and Pluto as well. This should give you an overall positive skew on your relationship capability. Now you are right regarding partners being of an escapist nature but that doesn't mean that you can't have a successful relationship and that your current partner can't pull his act together. This set up can be highly creative sexually if that's where the energy is put and obviously you and your husband did just that, the result being your three children. With your Neptune Jupiter opposition and of course Jupiter being in your first house you can tend to overreact a bit and may not be totally honest with yourself or your partner at an emotional level. I feel that your past acquaintance is really not the issue as you do not match up to him well. As a matter of fact it is more like a sister brother connection and a strained one at that. Your Scorpio friend falls in an area of your chart that deals with dead end projects. As for your husband your comparison was okay but sorrow does prevail especially with regard to his drinking problem. With his natal Neptune in an adverse position to his natal Uranus I believe that he could fall off the wagon from time to time. However, it probably won't be the result of your friendship with your Scorpio friend. Your Scorpio however should only be someone that you deal with as a direct result of work and nothing more. If you want your marriage to work you and your husband will have to work together in order to keep his problem under control. If he can't handle it and continually gets inebriated you will have to make a decision based on what's best for you and your children. Your husband falls in an area of your chart that deals with children and partying and that is probably how things started out some 15 years ago however times have changed and he's going to have to pull up his socks or expect to lose his family.

Hi Eugenia
Although I have been out of the dating scene for some time, I'm ready to get back in. As has happened in the past, a much younger man has expressed an interest in me. I am quite attracted to him, but I found myself so wrapped up in uncertainty about his motives (I just couldn't believe he was interested in someone my age)that I overanalyzed the situation and ended up not even being able to be hospitable the one time we got together (at least in hindsight I think I wasn't). We do see each other for professional reasons quite regularly and I've managed, at least in that arena, to keep things light and friendly. Is it possible he is actually interested? I'm afraid of looking like an old fool, but would really like to dump this attitude. I was born July 9, 1950 at 8:30 pm.

Hi Cancer
You didn?t mention when your friend was born so I really can?t tell you what his intentions are. I do believe however that you attract people who are much younger or much older and that you do better with partners who have an age difference than you do with those born too close to the year you were born. The trend older woman younger man has been growing increasing over the past decade and I believe that you really can?t make age a deciding factor as to whether you date someone or not. You match up well to those born under the signs Taurus, Cancer, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces. You are coming into a high cycle regarding love this fall that will remain with you for the better part of a year. It is evident that this could be someone you already know as well as someone you know or meet through work. Don?t rule your friend out but do check out your compatibility at my www.astroadvice.com web site.
