How Ezekiel sounds

The Saju view
The first sound is the heaviest in the pronunciation-element system, and for Ezekiel it is earth, made with an open throat and a soft breath. The sound of Ezekiel belongs to earth, the element of grounding and reliability. A chart short on earth is the one that gains most from such a name. Because earth feeds metal in the cycle of generation, Ezekiel can also help a chart that is short on metal, though less directly. If earth is already strong in a chart, Ezekiel ranks lower there, because it piles on more of the same element.
