How Alexis sounds
With three syllables, Alexis has room for a gentle rise and fall when spoken. The name Alexis ends on a breath, a light ending that feels quick and bright.

The Saju view
Alexis opens with a soft, open sound, such as a vowel, H, W or Y, which the pronunciation-element tradition files under earth. In Saju, Alexis carries earth. That makes it a natural choice for charts where earth is the thinnest of the five elements. In the cycle where each element nourishes the next, earth gives rise to metal, so Alexis earns some credit for charts missing metal. If earth is already strong in a chart, Alexis ranks lower there, because it piles on more of the same element.

The astrology view
