The Saju view
Say Fatima slowly and the first thing the mouth does is close the lips, a movement the system files under water. Fatima is a water name in the sound-element table, which is why it ranks near the top for charts that lack water. A chart lacking wood can lean on the water in Fatima, since water is the parent of wood in Saju. If water is already strong in a chart, Fatima ranks lower there, because it piles on more of the same element.
