The Saju view
Dawson opens with a tongue-tip sound, such as T, D, N, L or R, which the pronunciation-element tradition files under fire. Names that sound like Dawson are filed under fire. When a birth chart runs low on fire, a name like this is read as adding what is missing. Dawson supports earth from behind: its fire sound is the traditional source of that element. If fire is already strong in a chart, Dawson ranks lower there, because it piles on more of the same element.
