Rags to Riches: Suze Orman
Astrology of a financial guru
by Cortney Litwin
 
How did a struggling waitress from a working-class family become a wildly successful financial guru-- with a net worth of $10 million? It's all revealed in the chart of Suze Orman, the financial advisor and TV personality who is best known for her popular books on building wealth. Let's take a peek at her astrological influences to discover the secret of her success.
Destiny born of hardship Born on June 5, 1951, Orman has Sun, Mars and possibly the Moon (depending on her time of birth) in Gemini. The twins are the brainiacs of the zodiac because Gemini rules learning, information and communication. So you would think that having an abundance of brainy influences would have made learning and self-expression a breeze for Orman. Not so. A childhood speech impediment and difficulty with reading made learning and self-expression a chore. Saturn, the planet of discipline and hardship, was to blame. A repressive square aspect between her Moon and Saturn in Virgo depleted her self-confidence, well into adulthood.
Saturn strikes again The second blow from Saturn occurred after she had finally graduated college, only to find herself suffering from low self-esteem again - and back to waitressing. Then along came a windfall... She told a man who frequented the restaurant where she worked about her dream of opening up a restaurant of her own. This man became her benefactor. He immediately wrote her a check for $2,000, and then gathered more checks from other customers, totaling $50,000. The checks were accompanied by a note that read: "This is for people like you, so that your dreams can come true. To be paid back in ten years, if you can, with no interest."
Losing it all Unfortunately, an unscrupulous Merrill Lynch broker, who Orman had hired to invest her money, lost it all from risky investments. Within three months she was broke again. (Eventually she made enough money to pay back the loans.) Obviously, Orman had to overcome tremendous internal and external obstacles to fulfill her destiny as a communicator of financial know-how. So how did she do it?
Birth Twins
An interesting fact: two historical greats were born on the same day... see how their fates were simliar!
Attention!
Control your focus and create your reality
Twin destinies One good thing came out of the investment fiasco: Orman went to work for Merrill Lynch, which is where her financial career was launched. However, one of the most interesting things about Orman's chart is her strong Neptune, which trines her Sun and Mars. Spiritually oriented Neptune is the anti-materialism planet. It's certainly not an influence you'd expect in a successful financial advisor. Plus, part of her karma is indicated by the North Node in Pisces, the sign ruled by Neptune. This reinforces her spiritual destiny. So perhaps the key to Orman's success is her ability to share her combined financial and spiritual knowledge. It's the two faces of the Gemini twins. Her practical "twin" manifests through Mercury in Taurus, the sign of money, and Saturn in Virgo, the sign of service, which give her a talent for finances and the desire to help others. With the guidance of her Neptune "twin," Orman has written books that offer practical information along with life lessons and spiritual insights that can improve your ability to attract prosperity. Also, much of her own prosperity comes from being a pioneer in her field, as indicated by Jupiter in trailblazing Aries.
The feminine factor Another unusual aspect of Orman's work is her focus on financial issues unique to women. She discovered early on in her career that women are often hesitant to handle their own money. Orman's Venus, the planet of love and money, is in Cancer, the sign of food, family and women. You can see Orman's Cancer influence in both her desire to own a restaurant and in her work teaching women about financial planning. And, being a lesbian, women obviously play an important role in her love life as well.
Living your destiny brings emotional, spiritual and material fulfillment. Orman may have had a rough road to travel, but she finally fulfilled her Gemini destiny by sharing her knowledge and wisdom with others. Now she is one of the most admired financial and spiritual role models to all - male or female!
