    The averaging method is usually used to study the number of isolated periodic orbits that remain when we perturb systems having a continuum of them. In this paper, the authors show that in several situations, through a rescaling of the variables, this method can be used as well to get center conditions for monodromic critical points of smooth planar autonomous systems. Among these situations there are the monodromic critical points without characteristic directions and critical points of vector fields that in a suitable quasi-homogeneous decomposition have a dominant quasi-homogeneous part without characteristic directions associated to the corresponding weights.
