There

I don't care about your past
Even if it catches up with you
I see its dark shadows cast
But it's just a little part of you
Just a little part of you.

I know you wanna do it alone
This can make your head spin
Sure you'd make it on your own
Am I crazy for trying to fit in
I really think I'd fit right in.

You want to work all night
To keep you from going crazy
Don't worry 'cause it's alright
But I'm there when you need me
Even when you don't need me.

With me, it's all about your joy
There you will always find me
I'd even drink my coffee with soy :-)
I wanna see you smile for me
Oh smile because of me.

My Astro Chart

Hi there, here is the interpretation of the astrological chart that you asked for. Also attached is a .GIF graphic file which depicts your chart wheel. Thank you for visiting the Astrolabe WEB site at http://alabe.com This report has been created especially for you. It represents your Unique picture at the time you were born and at the place you were born. If you are unsure of the exact time of day of your birth (or the date or the place), the reading will probably not seem as accurate as it could be in certain places, but other parts will seem to be very appropriate. You will notice at certain places in the reading that contradictory information seems to be given. This is to be expected, because the personality of most people is extremely complex. For example, at times we are quite shy and at other times we are very aggressive, and so forth. You will also notice that, at certain points in the reading, certain patterns may be repeated over and over, especially in a longer more detailed report than this one. This is also to be expected. This simply means that your horoscope has an extremely strong focus on this particular pattern and that you should pay extra close attention to what is said about it. Now, on with your Report!

Name: Rachelle Manganti
June 6 1978
3:00 PM Time Zone is AWDT
Manila, PHIL

Rising Sign is in 14 Degrees Libra
Very attractive and popular, your charm helps you to get your own way and prevents others from getting angry with you. "Peace and harmony at all costs" is your battle cry. You always try to ameliorate or to cosmetically hide any physical ugliness or any angry feelings between people. Flashy, but not gaudy, you prefer to dress elegantly. You generally have good taste in music, art and literature. Beware of the tendency to compromise yourself in your attempt to be agreeable at all times. A bit of a social butterfly, at times you can be vain and lazy. For the most part, however, you are gracious and affectionate, and your refined and aristocratic demeanor serves as a role model to others.

Sun is in 15 Degrees Gemini.
You have a quick, bright and agile mind, but an extremely short attention span. You love the external, kaleidoscopic aspects of life, but you tend to avoid (and even fear) deep, close emotional involvements. As such, you seem to enjoy travel and sightseeing and generally being "on-the-go." You get quite listless when things around you become static and dull, but your excitement returns whenever you are stimulated by a new idea. Chatty, inquisitive and quite playful, you enjoy practical jokes and games in general. Your moods change quickly and often -- you are very restless and constantly in motion. You are known for your versatility and adaptability. Your vivaciousness enlivens any social gathering.

Moon is in 20 Degrees Gemini.
Restless in the extreme, you are easily bored because of your short attention span. Your emotions change rapidly and you love to talk about your feelings. Generally, you have good judgment -- your intellect controls your emotions and you do not overreact emotionally to things. A good jack-of-all-trades, you have many- sided interests and enjoy reasoning things through. With your mental agility and need for physical mobility, you are attracted to traveling and learning about other peoples and cultures. You have vivid powers of emotional self-expression - - you can be a nonstop talker. You love to share your ideas with anyone who will listen.

Mercury is in 05 Degrees Gemini.
Your mind is active, quick and agile. You are very restless and you get bored easily. Unless you receive constant mental stimulation, you become extremely nervous and begin to act in an unstable manner. You are probably a good student because of your natural inquisitiveness. You also love to travel. Your learning tends to be superficial, though, because you have a relatively short attention span. Try to develop the mental discipline to finish what you start. Also, you tend to talk on at times seemingly just to fill space -- make sure that your conversation has some substance to it or others will start avoiding you.

Venus is in 18 Degrees Cancer.
You like to be very close to other people. You need emotional support yourself and are willing to give it to others. When you feel unloved and insecure, you can be very jealous and possessive. You are not interested in casual or superficial relationships -- only deep emotional involvements interest you. Your faithful devotion is one of your greatest gifts, but be careful not to become too dependent on others. Learn to stand on your own two feet and demand your own rights once in a while.

Mars is in 25 Degrees Leo.
You are a very proud person. Strong, bold, courageous and self-possessed, you love to be the one to initiate significant actions. When people expect a lot of you, you respond positively and will work hard in order to maintain their respect. But when your dignity or pride is threatened, you tend to become sarcastic, arrogant and domineering. Try not to take any challenge or resistance that you meet as a personal affront. You are very stubborn about your right to live your life according to your own principles.

Jupiter is in 10 Degrees Cancer.
You must be emotionally secure in order to grow and develop. You are happiest when your family and community support and nourish you and boost your morale. Whether your childhood experiences of love and emotional dependability were positive or negative will set the tone for your emotional growth and stability as an adult. When you feel at ease with yourself, you are able to offer assistance to those who need a helping hand.

Saturn is in 25 Degrees Leo.
Extremely self-reliant, you set very high standards of conduct and decorum for yourself, and you expect others with whom you associate to be that way, too. It is important that you had a strong father figure or role model early in life to mold your life course and direction. When you feel that those around you are unworthy or behaving badly, you withdraw, preferring solitude rather than associating with those who might besmirch your reputation.

Uranus is in 13 Degrees Scorpio.
You, and your peer group, demand to confront life at its deepest and most meaningful levels. Very compulsive and obsessive in your approach to everything, you will avoid anything that is casual or superficial, especially when it comes to relationships. You will seek out and explore new methods of healing as well as different ways to deal with deep-seated emotional problems.

Neptune is in 16 Degrees Sagittarius.
You, and your entire generation, are heavily involved in investigating and idealizing foreign and exotic intellectual systems and religious philosophies. The most extreme ideals will be pursued with gusto. You will be at the forefront of humanitarian attempts to improve the lot of those who are in need of assistance. You will be comfortable with the concept of the "global village."

Pluto is in 13 Degrees Libra.
For your entire generation, this is a time of radical changes in society's attitude toward marriage and interpersonal relationships. There is a general fear and awe at the power inherent in making emotional or contractual commitments -- they will not be entered into lightly.

N. Node is in 03 Degrees Libra.
You find it very difficult to be comfortable being alone -- you would much prefer to be in an environment where many people are working together toward common goals. Your charming and sincere approach to others assures your popularity -- you have the gift of being able to ease tensions just by your mere presence. You're the perfect "team player" willing to sacrifice your own importance so that the group goal can be accomplished. Be careful, however, not to become overly dependent on your interactions with others -- you have personal private needs that should not be neglected.

Holding Me Back


So tough to see past the heartaches you caused.
How can one carry that burden too long?
All the ugliness, bitterness she feels for you,
Evokes such emotions that run over, rule over,
Saddens her, wearies her, buries her.

So I’m holding back because I am afraid.
The scars of her past, they dig down too deep.
Maybe when you heal you will change your mind.
Hope it’s not too late for us to be together.
Saddens me, wearies me, buries me.

I really feel you and it makes me wonder.
How can one I barely know win me over?
Your life does not get the better of me.
Only your fear and mine will see our end.
Saddens us, wearies us, buries us.

Love Again

She knows she put that smile on your face.
She knows you appreciate her cute little ways.
She knows that eventually you will say yes.
She knows you would love her until it hurts.

You hope it’s her when your phone rings.
You even gave her all your belongings.
You think of her, and your heart sings.
You adore her even when her love stings.

She was so real, and now she lingers.
She created for you the perfect universe.
She had beauty that no one else bears.
She was unique, and no one else matters.

You lead a different life, but you still see her.
You say damn her, cu’z she’s just so unfair.
You have another, but you know you still care.
You don’t know how to get better…

She taught you to love 'with' fear and exception.
She is gone, but she still holds you down.
She made you bleed till love’s all gone.
She has moved on, and you want to be alone.

You open your eyes, see, I ain’t leavin’.
You can cry it all out, you know I'd listen.
You don’t need to worry, there’s no rushin’.
You can have me, honey, just...let me in.

A Lesson on Evangelization versus Religious Discrimination

I walked in the office today while there was some major discussion among my coworkers about evolution versus the Genesis creation story. One said, "Genesis is not real because anyone with common sense knows that evolution is a fact." The other pointed out that evolution is not real because we were created in the image and likeness of God (not in the image and likeness of monkeys). Honestly, no one really knows except the Maker of the universe. Bottom line is there is no winning with these types of arguments. I'm glad I wasn't in that room when it all started. I just knew I wasn't going to hear the end of it. So I just said, "We are all entitled to our beliefs, and the workplace is certainly not the place to discuss them." Whatever happened to Lingkod's slogan, "Evangelizing the workplace"? Reason says, "Welcome to the United States."

Undo

Hurtful words flung, cannot retract.
Change promised, forgave many times.
Love restored, wounded heart mended.
Then love turns sweeter for a time.

Many things written, emotions overwhelm.
Receiving and giving unconditional love.
But it happens once again. Trust is broken.
Twice painful. What for and why?

Undo the times you treat me wrong.
Undo my mind, so I won't remember.
Undo the many hurts, for I never learned.
Undo the words I don't deserve.
Undo the plans of a future together.

Once you already let me go, for sure...
No, you won't fight for me tomorrow.
I'll set up the barrier, and make it strong.
Then I will love me till the pain's all gone.

My Keirsey Temperament

Your Keirsey Temperament Sorter Results indicates that your personality type is
that of the Guardian.

Guardians are the cornerstone of society, for they are the temperament given to serving and preserving our most important social institutions. Guardians have natural talent in managing goods and services--from supervision to maintenance and supply -- and they use all their skills to keep things running smoothly in their families, communities, schools, churches, hospitals, and businesses.

All Guardians share the following core characteristics:

•Guardians pride themselves on being dependable, helpful, and hard-working.
•Guardians make loyal mates, responsible parents, and stabilizing leaders.
•Guardians tend to be dutiful, cautious, humble, and focused on credentials and traditions.
•Guardians are concerned citizens who trust authority, join groups, seek security, prize gratitude, and dream of meting out justice.

Guardians can have a lot of fun with their friends, but they are quite serious about their duties and responsibilities. Guardians take pride in being dependable and trustworthy; if there's a job to be done, they can be counted on to put their
shoulder to the wheel. Guardians also believe in law and order, and sometimes worry that respect for authority, even a fundamental sense of right and wrong, is being lost. Perhaps this is why Guardians honor customs and traditions so strongly -- they are familiar patterns that help bring stability to our modern, fastpaced world.

Practical and down-to-earth, Guardians believe in following the rules and cooperating with others. They are not very comfortable winging it or blazing new trails; working steadily within the system is the Guardian way, for in the long run
loyalty, discipline, and teamwork get the job done right. Guardians are meticulous about schedules and have a sharp eye for proper procedures. They are cautious about change, even though they know that change can be healthy for an institution. Better to go slowly, they say, and look before you leap.

Guardians make up as much as 40 to 45 percent of the population, and a good thing, because they usually end up doing all the indispensable but thankless jobs everyone else takes for granted.

Guardians at Work
As a Guardian, you enjoy working as a valued member of a team, whether you are leading it or following a credible leader. You like to work with people who carry their weight. You appreciate having clear-cut responsibilities and being recognized for your dedication and achievements. Your natural traits are those
that employers have traditionally valued - and that successful companies still respect. You are responsible and loyal to an organization once you've signed on.

Establishing and following a familiar daily routine is critical to your well being. In your ideal job, you and your coworkers would all share information so that everyone could remain "on the same page” as projects move forward. Because you genuinely care about the people you work with, your colleagues and your
customers appreciate your unassuming kindness.
