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: 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.

Article: From Aries

Dear Eugenia,

First of all id like to say congratulations on your readings. In the past 7 years I've printed out and received countless self-analysis and birth charts. A lot have been good but didn't really fit my way of thinking and seeing astrology, I'm an Aries and so a lot of astrologers or society in general just see us as dynamic fast talkers, sex bombs, baby screaming his lungs out not stopping until he gets fed and there might be some truths to that, but it kind of lacks depth. I find what you've done is mix my ascendant Sagittarius, with my moon Libra both mercury and Venus in Pisces & mars in Aries into a great overall picture, I even think you've added Chinese astrology yr of the sheep into it, it would be great to get some advice on more writings and web pages that have similar thoughts and ways of descriptions, cause as you pointed out in your analysis file of me, one of my biggest traits is the continuing search for knowledge & and id love to get your birth details, to see a profile on you. My details are 11 April 1979, 21:30. thanx and keep up the good work.

Dear Aries

Thanks, I am so glad that you have enjoyed my websites. Many people have asked for my particulars so I might as well list them for you. Asc. 1:45 Capricorn, Sun 5 Aries in the 4th, Moon 28 Aquarius in the 2nd, Mercury 19 Pisces in the 3rd, Venus 28 Pisces in the 3rd, Mars 3 Aries in the 4th, Jupiter 27 Capricorn in the 1st, Saturn 0 Virgo in the 8th, Uranus 26 Gemini in the 6th, Neptune 14 Libra in the 10th, Pluto 14 Leo in the 8th. As you can see there are similarities between your chart and mine. My daughter was born on April 11th and we have grown to become best friends over the years. There is nothing wrong with Aries or any other sign for that matter. Each sign contributes to society and if we were to miss one of them the world would definitely be lacking so for those who say they don't like this sign or that they should learn to appreciate what each sign brings to the table. As a rule we do not get along as well with whatever sign falls on our 8th house because of a lack of interests as well as the fact that these relationships do not usually lead anywhere. I have tried to add as much data from as many astrological backgrounds as possible on my astroadvice.com website and it's nice to have one of my members recognize the effort that has gone into making this site so spectacular. I am very proud of what my partner and I have accomplished. He is the Sagittarius mastermind who pulled together all the technology to support all the little extras that I wanted to give to our members. Once again thank you for your support.

Article: Need to change

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!

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.
