The Saju view
Say Cooper slowly and the first thing the mouth does is lift the back of the tongue, a movement the system files under wood. Saju listeners hear wood in Cooper, the element tied to spring and to growth. Charts with little wood are the ones it answers best. Because wood feeds fire in the cycle of generation, Cooper can also help a chart that is short on fire, though less directly. A chart that already holds plenty of wood is better served by another name, since Cooper would add to it.
