Oprah Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey is a media executive, television personality, and philanthropist. She scored her break by parlaying her cohost position at a Chicago TV station into the Oprah Winfrey Show. In 2011 she launched the OWN cable network featuring original programming.

Winfrey had a rough childhood; it was characterized by poverty and abuse. She completed high school with the highest grades. She later went to Tennessee State University.

Oprah Winfrey is born on the Sun in Aquarius, the Moon in Sagittarius, and the ASC in Sagittarius, configuring, overall, a pronounced need for knowledge, justice, and exploration. ASC in Sagittarius indicates a very strong moral compass at the core of Oprah, governed by idealism in her intentions to make the world a better place. With a 2nd house Sun, this shows a focus on personal values and financial security.

With the Moon in the 11th house, there is a major sense of need for community and social justice, and she is driven by the wish to pursue intellectual interests. The 2nd house contains Mercury and Venus, making her quite articulate. She searches for a strong connection with her own values.
