Water could be caused by a number of things. How much water is in there?
If it isnt much, it could well be condensation if the car hasnt been started in a while. If it's a fair amount and the car has been running often I'd start looking at the head gasket and head.

other than condensation i can think of 4 possible sources for coolant in the oil in an astron,
1 cracked or corroded head
2 blown head gasket
3 cracked block
4 corroded timing case coolant gallery
