Trumping the Deal

(These articles highlighting men and women who have had high
achievement in business and government allow us to take a
glimpse at the underlying energies and how they applied these
numbers to their business interests. I trust that the example is
helpful to your own application of the numbers. In some
instances the path of the business is directly reflected in the
numbers. In other instances we can see success in spite of
counter-balancing numbers.)

In this article, I wish to deal separately with the personal
numbers of Donald Trump, rather than in relationship to any of
his business interests. People can relate to "The Donald"
because in many ways he seems to be one of us. He built an
empire against great odds through his own acumen.

You will notice that four out of his five core numbers are
karmic. With this concentration of major challenges. Dealing
with this karma makes for a difficult life at best, especially
since the strongest numbers are in conflict with each other and
pull him in opposite directions. Early in life this man was
faced with a choice to be a victim and succumb to the weight of
the burden, or to beat the challenge. Obviously he chose to be a
fighter, but the karmic challenges are still evident in his
life.

Most people with one or two karmic debts struggle to find their
stride. Four karmic debts seems like an overwhelming load.
Rarely do people choose to work through this much junk in a
single lifetime. In all the readings and charts that I have done
in over a decade of readings I have only found one client with
all five of the core numbers karmic. Before she came to me, this
woman had spent over $3,000.00 in a single year on psychic
readings to find out what was going on in her life. She was so
worn down and discouraged that she was strongly tempted to admit
that she had taken on more than she could handle.

Donald Trump's challenges in order of impact are:

His 13/4 life path lesson is to be systematic and organized. The
karmic overtones keep him from seeing his accomplishments. As a
result, particularly in his early years, he would likely abandon
a project just as it was ready to produce. Because of his
limited view of the situation, he would deem it to be a failure.
A bit more persistent would have brought the desired results.

The 14/5 expression and the 14/5 birthday causes him to be
easily bored. His talents are so varied that there are few areas
in which he could not do well. Because there are so many
opportunities open to him, he will find difficulty in sticking
with a single choice. The karmic overtone is that he would
become so scattered that he fails to stick with anything until
it bears fruit.

The 16/7 soul urge deals with relationship challenges.
Relationships are never easy because of the shield that he puts
up to avoid closeness. Although he craves intimacy, he will
likely push it away for fear of getting hurt. But needed lessons
are in an intimate relationship.

Seeing the divergent challenges, we can explore how these karmic
debts have impacted his life. The 4 life path is particularly
suited to real estate dealings. With the 7 soul urge he will see
the circumstances from a different angle from the other parties.
Provided that his communication is understood he will have the
edge. The 5 of the birthday and expression opens myriad doors of
opportunity, but he must pick and choose wisely to capitalize
upon them.

His multiple marriages is not unexpected both because of the
16/7 and the 14/5. If the relationship becomes too stable, it
becomes boring and his roving eye will get him into trouble. If
the relationship becomes too stressful, with the 16/7, he will
likely take the attitude that he does not need the hassle. If he
has not learned the lesson to be gained from that relationship,
however, he will go right back into a relationship containing
that same unlearned lesson.

Notwithstanding the wealth that he has accumulated and lost and
accumulated again, money is not really a motivator for him. He
has an abiding faith that his needs will be met. The excitement
is in making the deal. The amount of money defines the value of
the deal and makes it more exciting. Just as a poker player who
has money on the table has enhanced interest the money in the
deal adds interest.

It seems to me that considering the heavy course that he has
chosen for this lifetime, that he has handled his life extremely
well. Whether or not you approve of his actions and lifestyle,
it seems that you must admit that so far he has done a great job
in fulfilling his purpose.
