The Saju view
Say Isaac slowly and the first thing the mouth does is open the throat, a movement the system files under earth. The sound of Isaac 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, Isaac can also help a chart that is short on metal, though less directly. If earth is already strong in a chart, Isaac ranks lower there, because it piles on more of the same element.

The astrology view
To the ear Isaac sounds fire, the element of Aries, Leo and Sagittarius. Those signs hear a familiar voice in it, and Gemini, Libra and Aquarius find it a friendly partner. Charts led by earth and water signs hear the fire sound of Isaac as a contrast, so it ranks lower there.
