What type of Mommy are you????
Aries (March 21 – April 19) You can’t wait for playtime. An energetic Aries, you are childlike yourself, and this helps you relate to your little ones on many different levels. You are first of all a mommy, but also a friend, nurturer and mentor. You will help your little ones become as independent as you are. You expect your children to learn to pull their own weight, and you raise them to think and act independently. You tend to gravitate toward youthful, like-minded people and, because of this, you develop a great connection with your children as they grow into adults. Your participation in all that your little ones do will help you build close bonds for life.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20) You always loved to play house as a child, and now you get to play for real. As a mommy you are gentle, practical and loving. To you, family loyalty is more important than anything else. You tend to be a little possessive when it comes to your children and to your home. You will do everything in your power to provide a secure and stable environment, so that your children will be well adjusted and confident in all they do. You provide the best quality items and, because of this, you demand that your children learn to take good care of their belongings. You are strict but always compassionate to your little ones’ needs.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20) As a mommy, you are, above all else, a source of unlimited information. You will supply your children with the intellectual necessities, such as a well-rounded library, as well as ongoing communication throughout their lives. You will never become tired of the questions that your little ones ask, and you will take advantage of any chance you get to participate in their activities. Your versatility makes being a mommy easy for you. Your wide variety of interests will allow you continue to do things with your children, no matter what age they are.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22) You are the ultimate mother: warm, loving, compassionate and sensitive. You thrive on home, family and, most of all, on being a mommy.

Leo (July 23 – August 22) As a mommy, you are generous almost to a fault. You want your children to have the best of everything. You are proud of their accomplishments, but sometimes expect a little too much from them. You are a fun-loving mommy because you’ll never shy away from taking part in childish games, especially if you can show off a bit. You want your little ones to be as proud of you as you are of them, and you will bend over backward to do whatever is necessary to capture their hearts and their attention.

At the same time, you can be very critical when trying to help your children be the best that they can be. You will go to great lengths to do everything by the book.
Libra (September 23 – October 22) As a mommy, you are cultured, refined and sophisticated.

Your goal is to make sure they know right from wrong.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21) As a mommy, you are fun loving, active and always on the go. You are playful, and will participate in whatever your children do. You have an amazing rapport with your offspring because you are entertaining and always willing to provide excitement and adventure for them. You are just as much a friend as an authority figure. You are a hands-on mother, totally involved in what your children are doing, and always prepared to let them learn from their mistakes.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19) As a mommy, you are reserved, hard working and very strict. You will never give your children something if they don’t deserve it. They must earn your respect and anything you give them. You set rules that must be adhered to, and you will praise them whenever they strive to reach a goal. You run a tight ship and won’t back down when it comes to discipline. Because of this, you raise outstanding children who will make you very proud to be their mother. You are an excellent provider who will never neglect your responsibilities, and you will teach your youngsters to be just as reliable as you are.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18) As a mommy you’re fun, exciting, and always eager to try new things with your children. Experimentation is a way of life for you and, because of this, your children will inherit a strong desire to be innovative and inventive in all they do. You aren’t one to raise your little ones by the book, but prefer your own unique style of mothering. You encourage your children to be self-expressive, and will always listen to what they have to say. You love them dearly and show great interest in their achievements. You believe in giving your children space, but you will always be there if they need you.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20) As a mommy, you are warm, affectionate, sensitive and giving. You are often taken advantage of by you’re children because you are just too darn nice. You will teach your children about unique people, places and things that they would probably never learn of at school. You will give them as much as you’re able, and when you have to say, “No,” it will hurt you more than it will your offspring. You will care deeply for each and every one of your children, and will always do whatever you can to make them feel loved and special.

DEAR EUGENIA: I am looking for love, but I fear getting hurt. I am a Cancer, born June 25, 1968, at 12:34 a.m. I divorced after 15 years of marriage. My husband was a Virgo, born Sept. 8, 1966. He was cold and lacked intimacy. I thought we matched up well, but he betrayed me.
I have been sleeping with a Capricorn, born Jan. 15, 1966, and I feel overwhelmed. I don’t think he is good for me. We have not been on a date — it’s all just sex. I have met guys, but they don’t do it for me — I’m too hung up on my Capricorn. Is he right for me? Can I find love? When? What is wrong with me? — Cancer
DEAR CANCER: You don’t have trouble attracting men, but you sure don’t know how to pick them. The astrological comparison with your ex leads me to believe you both had to be in a very low period to have even considered getting together. There were no redeeming factors in this connection. How you lasted 15 years is beyond comprehension.
The comparison with your Capricorn man isn’t much better, and it’s certainly not healthy for your self-esteem or confidence. Please get a grip, and get off this merry-go-round you continue to ride.
Yes, you can find love, but only if you give a nice guy a chance. Look for someone who shares your interests. Have an astrological comparison cast before you become intimate.
I suggest you take the better part of the year to discover who you are and what you want out of life. I believe that up until this point, you have always become someone’s minion. A good relationship requires equality, honesty and loyalty.

DEAR EUGENIA: What is my rising sign? I was told that I was a Pisces with Capricorn ascendant, but it didn’t fit. I think I’m a Pisces with Pisces ascendant. I have always felt and acted like a double dose of Pisces. I was born March 14, 1977, at 5:31 a.m.
How is transiting Neptune going to affect me? When will I have a love life? I had a big heartbreak with my children’s father, so I have avoided love. I am ready to find a partner now. — Pisces
DEAR PISCES: Using the stats you gave me, you have nine degrees of Aquarius rising. The reason you feel like a double dose of Pisces is because you have your natal Sun and Mercury in Pisces, so your character and the way you think and respond to others is very Fishlike.
Neptune deals with creativity, deception, disillusionment, intuition and dreams, and it can be good or bad depending on how it aspects your chart. In your case, it has already made its most significant contribution, beginning around the middle of this decade while it set off areas of your chart that dealt with your personal life, how you viewed your relationships with others and how they viewed you in return. It’s not surprising that your marriage didn’t survive.
Regarding love, you are coming into a much higher cycle during the second half of this year and the first half of next. You should not deny yourself intimacy with someone because you are afraid, but you should have an astrological comparison cast to make sure you choose wisely as the Neptune transit can still cause you to pick poorly.

DEAR EUGENIA: I was born May 24, 1961, at 4:59 a.m. I’m at a crossroads. I have been in the same relationship with a man, born June 16, 1942, at 5:00 a.m., for 15 years and in the same job for the same amount of time. I am not sure about either right now. — Totally Bored
DEAR TOTALLY BORED: Your relationship with your Twin is doable, although you aren’t always honest with one another about the way you feel. Communication can make or break this union so if you want to spice things up, start talking.
If you want to change your professional position, you should have done so or at least started the ball rolling about 18 months ago. In other words, pick up additional skills or whatever you required to work in a more exciting field. You still have a little time left before you begin a cycle that favors job changes later this year and throughout the first half of next year. Don’t make a move unless you have something in writing, and you are 100 percent sure you want to take on the challenge that comes with starting something new. The grass isn’t always greener…
