Your first name of Marlene creates an intense desire for association with people and new experiences, many of which have been rather bitter. Your difficulty in accumulating wealth or stabilizing your finances often causes your personal affairs to be in a turmoil. When you are feeling relaxed and cheerful, you can be very charming and able to say just the right thing to compliment or inspire someone. There is much confusion under this name, and your moods will fluctuate from one extreme to the other. This unsettledness will take its toll on your health causing you to have a sensitive, nervous stomach, indigestion, and a tendency toward ulcers. It could also cause upsets in the fluid functions: in the kidneys, bladder, or circulatory system of your body. You make the effort to communicate with others because you place importance on having people like you. One side desires placidity, relaxation, and social activities, while the other side longs for change and travel, and opportunities that allow you to be creative and independent from all routine and interference. This name spoils patience and depth of thought, and weakens your stand in matters of principle. While you do have a quick, clever mind, the tensions and limitations this name places upon your happiness and success in life far outweigh the benefits.
