Cherríe Moraga
drive and ambition

Moraga is aspiring, enterprising and forever following a bright and distant star, planning some new venture or investigating new potential. She is definitely "upwardly mobile" in either a material or spiritual sense. Cherríe Moraga aims high and is not content with a mere quiet, secure existence. Cherríe likes to stretch her limits, see how far she can go and take risks. She is a positive thinker, expects success for herself, and is philosophical about failures. Moraga is flexible and she bounces back from disappointments rather quickly, usually with another hopeful new idea she wants to try. Her enthusiasm and confidence are contagious and enable Cherríe Moraga to enlist the aid and support she needs for her projects. However, Cherríe Moraga sometimes promises more than she can actually achieve, because she is overly optimistic or pays insufficient attention to the practicalities involved.

She also tends to get distracted and to have too many things going on at once. Although it is very difficult for her, there are times when Cherríe Moraga simply must cultivate commitment, perseverance and persistence in order to make her dreams and goals reality. Too often Cherríe Moraga falls short of what she could attain because she is unwilling to persist through the difficult or less exciting times.

Cherríe Moraga also enjoys competition and usually does not take it too seriously. Sports and entrepreneurial endeavors are good ways to channel Cherríe's energy.

Cherríe Moraga often buys things on impulse and she can be reckless with her material resources and money. Cherríe has certain possessions that she is extremely attached to and possessive of.

While Cherríe Moraga enjoys challenging herself to extend her abilities or try new activities, she is apt to bite off more than she can chew. Failures or accidents due to overestimating her prowess or capacities and being overly eager and poorly prepared, may result. Fortunately these disappointments or blunders do not dampen Cherríe's spirits or her ambitions permanently; she has a lot of resilience and optimism. Most likely Cherríe Moraga will need to develop her physical coordination and sense of timing in order to do some of the activities she dreams of doing.

Although enterprising and proactive, Cherríe Moraga is also capable of ample much self-discipline, patience and effort. She may swing from confidence and trust in the future to pessimism and doubt, when it comes to achieving her aims in life.

Conscientious, responsible, and serious about her work, Cherríe Moraga accomplishes a great deal through her dedication. She is the person in the office or company who follows through, quietly sustains the effort, and keeps on going in spite of tedium, setbacks, or dry spells. This is often the key to Cherríe's success. However, Cherríe Moraga is humble about her accomplishments and contributions, and may thus not receive the recognition or recompense that she deserves.

Although she is patient and steady when pursuing an objective, when Cherríe Moraga finally loses patience she loses it completely! In addition to having great tenacity and perseverance, Cherríe has a daring and rebellious side as well:

Fits of temper and impatience, and a sudden, erratic sort of recklessness can all work very much against Cherríe Moraga, especially when she needs to be working cooperatively as part of a team or in a partnership. When she is upset or fired up about something, Cherríe often does things that are risky and outrageous. When out of balance, Moraga tends to be accident prone.

Her competitive drive and lofty ambitions (commented upon earlier) feed on either intense spiritual idealism or a rather inflated, grandiose idea of what Cherríe Moraga can actually accomplish. Her energy level is apt to fluctuate from being very high, as noted earlier, to rather low, as mentioned in the following paragraphs.

While Cherríe Moraga is often charged with energy and inspired about what she wants to do (as mentioned earlier), there is a dreamy, visionary, or passive side to her as well. Her energy level may fluctuate from being superabundant to rather lax.

Unlike some who have hopes and fantasies, Moraga is a person who tries to live out these dreams, no matter how impractical or fantastic they seem. Cherríe Moraga has a quixotic, idealistic streak. She may be more inspired to work for some higher cause than simply for her own personal achievement.

Cherríe Moraga has a strong sense of mission and instinctively knows that in order to achieve anything great, one must eliminate superfluous activities and give oneself wholly to the task at hand. Her zeal, enthusiasm and clarity of purpose enable Cherríe Moraga to succeed and to achieve whatever she sets her mind to. Cherríe Moraga has a strong will, but is usually quiet and understated by nature.

Freedom is very important to Cherríe Moraga and she will work hard to get it. Quick to act, she wants to realize her goals immediately. Cherríe Moraga has a strong desire to make her fortune in life and tends to take chances with speculative ventures or gambling.

She is likely to feel depressed frequently and has a strong desire to overcome it, but may not be able to count on much support from others. Cherríe Moraga tends to separate herself from others and she feels like being expelled from society.
