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.

Article: Talent Doesn't Always Lead to Success

Dear Eugenia,

I was born on February 26th 1979 in Split, Croatia,20 minutes past midnight. I am really concerned about 2 different aspects of my life and I need your help. I would like to know if my career choice-becoming an actress-is the right one for me. I am very ambitious and also interested in the financial aspect of my work and sometimes I am uncertain if this is the right choice for me. For some time I`ve been involved in fashion business, but I didn`t have the success I expected although I had worked hard. Sometimes I just feel that I will never be able to realize myself professionally and I do not want to end up being frustrated. Please help me with these career problems. 2.I`m having problems with my relationship which lasts for almost 5 years. He was born on August 13th 1961 in Kotor, Yugoslavia at 5am. We have a wonderful 7 months old son and deep down I know I love him, but I`m getting more and more unsatisfied with my relationship. I need your advice about this very much. Also, can you just very briefly tell me about his health. I know these questions may be to long, but I would really appreciate your time and effort. Also, do you send your answers

Dear Family Matters

Regarding your career, I do believe that you have talent. This however, does not always equate to being successful. The problem appears to be more to do with self-deception and disillusionment. This often is the case when you are born with your natal Neptune adversely aspected to your natal Mercury as you were. I believe that you are quite attractive and this has always attributed to your success in the past. Most professional gains stem from frustration, hard work and more importantly dedication and good timing. You should be striving to go on as many auditions as possible if that's the career path you want to pursue. I do feel that much of your talent lies in an area that deals with fashion and design. You may not have given this career enough time. Success does not happen over night. The relationship with your husband was actually quite good. I feel certain that you can provide greater opportunity for one another. Your husbands chart indicates that he is moving into a high cycle where his career is concerned and that is where he should be putting his greatest effort this year. He is going through many changes regarding his attitude and his likes and dislikes. His chart does not indicate major health problems. At least nothing that can't be controlled. The past few years due to transiting planets illness may have occurred. If this is the case I feel that he should continue to follow a healthy lifestyle as reoccurring transits could cause future problems. On the whole his chart indicates that he usually lands on his feet.

You did not submit your son's birth data and that is unfortunate considering how much a child's chart can reveal about his parents.

Article: Hang on a Minute...

Dear Eugenia:

I wrote to you once before, but it appears my letter was overlooked. I'm beginning to feel a little stressed over a situation that appears to be inevitable in my love life. I'm a Sagittarius, born December 2, 1961 at 9:45 p.m. A few years ago I met a wonderful man at work. He's a Gemini; born June 2, 1960 (I'm not sure of the time). I have a wonderful connection with this man--when we talk we're so connected that we finish each other's sentences. I also feel a strong connection in that I can feel his energy around me when he's not there. I've never felt this way with anyone before---not even my ex-husband. He was going through his divorce about the same time I was (shortly after we met), and we've been friends since then. I would like a romantic relationship with him, and I feel he wants one with me too but he seems to take two steps forward and then hold back. I can only assume this is because he's cautious of being hurt again. He won't reveal the reason to me. About six weeks ago, I met another man (Scorpio, born November 9, 1964, I don't know the time). We've talked a lot on the phone and started to date. I don't feel the same attraction with the Scorpio that I do with the Gemini, but the Scorpio is more "forward" in his approach which I really like. He also is not afraid to talk about his feelings, which I think is very important. I like him a lot--he's very sweet, considerate, intelligent and fun. I intend to keep dating the Scorpio. Can you tell me if the Gemini will ever step forward the way I've always hoped he would?I dread making choices between men, but I can almost see how this will play out. I'll start getting involved with the Scorpio and the Gemini will finally step forward and I'll feel guilty and torn. I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, but at the same time I want to be true to myself and follow my heart. The way I feel right now, I definitely want a relationship with the Gemini! Impossible, right? Can you help me with some insight?

Thank you.

Dear Sag In Need of Help

You are still going through a very unstable period where relationships are concerned. To try to make a decision at this time would probably end in a negative spin. Both comparisons were just adequate. I think that you can do much better. I get the feeling that you don't like to be single, that you truly want someone to love when really you'd be best to go it alone for at least a little longer. Opportunities to make changes in your home environment will be present until the middle of next year and you should be focusing on doing just that. Build your own base and do the things that you like to do. It's time to enjoy your freedom. You match up well to those born under the signs Aries, Gemini, Libra and Aquarius. You will be in a much higher cycle regarding love and romance in 2002. For now you should be enjoying the company of friends and discovering whom you are and what you want in a partner. Don't jump into a new relationship too fast and for the wrong reason.

Article: Better to Step Out

Dear Eugenia:I have been a good friend to a male, born -----------------. for a number of years. There are no romantic feelings between the two of us, but we do enjoy talking to each other. In the past two years he has been dating a young woman, born ----------------- Since they began dating, his behavior has become erratic. He lies, or tells people just what they want to hear, doesn't keep appointments, ignores his family and friends, and obsesses about being with her. Now they are engaged, and those of us who know them want to feel happy for them, but there isn't anyone in his circle of family or friends that is happy. She is very aloof, and tends to control him and everyone else around her. Can you give us some guidance? Their behavior, together and separate, is making life miserable on a lot of people and messing up events and gatherings to the point that no one wants them around any more. If possible, I would appreciate discretion when answering these questions. Thank you for your help, Eugenia.

Dear Faithful Reader

Although the two in question just have a so so comparison it is workable. The biggest problem appears to be when dealing with friends and relatives. I'm not saying that the marriage or relationship will last, but I am saying that there is nothing that you or anyone else can do about it. Your Libra friend has fallen in love and if you fight it he will not be your friend. He is in a high cycle where love and marriage is concerned therefore this has come into his life at the right moment for him. In her case, she is somewhat erratic and probably not quite as sure about her future with him as he is with his future with her. You are best to let him follow his course of action and support his decision. If you and his other friends feel so strongly that you are willing to lose the connection with him I suggest that you tell him your true feelings about this girl and let him decide what he will do. Maybe if you understand what it is that she does for him you will be able to accept her.
