How Ashton sounds

The Saju view
Say Ashton slowly and the first thing the mouth does is open the throat, a movement the system files under earth. Ashton is a fire name in the sound-element table, which is why it ranks near the top for charts that lack fire. Because fire feeds earth in the cycle of generation, Ashton can also help a chart that is short on earth, though less directly. A chart that already holds plenty of fire is better served by another name, since Ashton would add to it.
