I posted this in Vedic too. But Western reading would also be much appreciated. Thank you.

I do not have my exact birth time. I was born at home, and a traditional health practicioner ("hilot") was the one who delivered me. My mom just said it was around 2AM (02:00) of July 24, 1978. Is this ok? I was born in Gapan City, Nueva Ecija, Philippines.

I currently reside in Makati City, Metro Manila, Philippines.

Questions:

When/where will I find my true love, the guy I am going to be with forever/marry? What is his nationality? How do I know it's him?

Will I have a great marriage? I am from a country without divorce so I hope to stay with my husband forever. Right now this guy I love is still JE, the guy from Philadelphia DOB Sept 14, 1975.

Also, I am going to work in the USA as a nurse, when can I expect to be back? Will I meet the love of my life there? WIll I be able to shift to Medicine there and will I have a financially-rewarding and successful career? I am worried about being broke the rest of my life.

Is it possible for me to have kids - I am already 30 and, well, no love/marriage possibility on the horizon.

Thank you.

Although others may seem to have asked first, I am doing this reading now because Antigone has been waiting awhile for a reading.

Antigone, When I do a chart (reading), I not only look at what the person has asked, but also ways to solve problems in their life that are having an impact on their current situation, and in achieving their goals and heart desires.  Since I'm aware that relationships are a big concern for you, and heavy on your mind, I'm looking at that first.

There is nothing in your chart that will deny you a happy marriage.  But, there are some things you can consider, to help the appropriate mate to come into your life sooner.  There is a great danger in your chart that you will settle for anything and anyone who promises to give you a marriage.  (This is not just from our previous conversations, but it is quite evident in your natal chart).  You have Libra as a rising sign.  Chiron is placed in the 7th house.  Venus is in virgo, and venus is squared Neptune.  All this says that you can be far too accommodating and anxious to please.  What happens with this is that no one will respect you, because you give the impression that they can mistreat you and you will still love them.  Naturally, this only attracts bums and jerks and potential mates who would use you, then toss you aside...because they are only treating you how you present yourself to others...that you will put up with any kind of misbehavior and maltreatment as long as they will marry you.  

We need to change that immediately, before you end up in a very unhappy marriage that can only end with your partner walking away.  You must give yourself self-respect.  Believe that you will NOT accept any kind of misbehavior and treatment from a mate.  Insist that you be treated with care and love, respect and compassion, with only a mind to appreciating all your good qualities (and you have  many!).  The reason you must change your attitude, because then others will be attracted to you who think well of themselves, too.  You will begin to attract people who are capable of giving you the true home and marriage that you wish to have.  We attract others into our life based upon what we expect to have!  If you will tolerate any kind of bad behavior, you will get it!!  If you refuse to be treated badly, and expect care and love, then you will get THAT!  You see?  Until you deal with your damaged self-worth, I would not advise you getting into any kind of romantic relationship, because it will turn out disastrous.  The biggest problem is that you don't value yourself.  This is also what has affected your financial situation...you don't value yourself, you don't see yourself as valuable, so you are paid what you think you are worth...very little.  When you start to understand how precious and good you are, you will start to see finances improve, also.

I can't tell you in words how important this is.  It is part of your "karma" that this is the thing that is most important for you to learn in life...to respect yourself!  To see yourself clearly, not through the cloud of your imagined faults.  You are a very good person, Antigone, but you must begin to believe that about yourself!

There is a good indication in the chart that you will marry someone from a different country than the Phillipines.  Since you plan to go to the USA, it is a natural assumption that this is where you would meet him.  However, that isn't said specifically in the chart...only that he is not of your same country.  

Because this is a problem of your self-worth, I think you need to hear somethings about yourself that you know, but don't think they are worth anything in you.  When you see them in writing, they will ring true for you, but they will also help you see that you are a very worthwhile person.

You are very fun to be around.  You have a pleasing personality that attracts many people to you.  You have a very analytical mind, making you very suited to nursing and care of those who are sick.  You know instinctively and through study what to do, and you don't hesitate to do it to help them.  You are, in fact, very happy when you are helping others.  You are someone who shines, and sometimes you have troubles simply because others are JEALOUS of YOU!  Your health is generally good.  You keep balance in your life and understand how important that is.  You are good natured.  You have a good intellect, and are able to grasp information quickly, when you turn all your attention to something.  You are very generous.  You aren't afraid to be an individual, and won't necessarily follow the crowd.  You have a great capacity to express sympathy and empathy to others.  So, you see, dear Antigone, if we can get your self-esteem higher, most of the problems you have in your life will simply go away and bother you no more!

As far as timing, I would predict that beginning in March 2010, there is someone very special that can come into your life.  Do not despair on the timing.  It is only about a year and a half!  I know it seems like a long time when waiting, but this is when it can happen.  There is a possibililty of a baby girl.  But, there is going to be a problem with the pregnancy related to medications.  You must be very careful while you are pregnant so that you are not taking anything, even vitamins, without being sure that it is good for the baby.  If at all possible, do not be around the hospital during the last tri-mester.  I don't know why, but it is there in the chart that you should take this care.  If you need to work, try to stay away from patients, by doing care plans, or computer work, so that you don't jeapordize the child.  With this precaution, I don't see any other problems except a low birth weight, but it is not life-threatening low birth weight.

I hope this answers your questions.  I enjoy getting to know you through your natal chart.  I think you are a person I would enjoy knowing very much!

Regards...

Hi,

I need to digest this reading. It's very...meaty. And thank you so so much. I will comment more in a few...

I would like to ask first, when can I expect to be back in the US and can I shift to medicine when I'm there? I finished medical school here.

I was also told the man I'm gonna marry is in medical field? Like a doctor too?

I'm going to reread ...

Yes I think I am also anxious to please and will tolerate a lot of crap for the person I love. I guess you are right, it all boils down to self-respect and putting value on myself. I don't know why I am like this, it's like hope springs eternal. I give people chances - most of the time, innumerable chances. It's like I believe each time, this time it will be different. And then it's not and I get disappointed over and over.

So he is not the same nationality? Is he Caucasian?
