The Saju view
Jax opens with a hissing, teeth-edge sound, such as S, Z, SH, CH or J, which the pronunciation-element tradition files under metal. Names that sound like Jax are filed under metal. When a birth chart runs low on metal, a name like this is read as adding what is missing. Jax supports water from behind: its metal sound is the traditional source of that element. If metal is already strong in a chart, Jax ranks lower there, because it piles on more of the same element.

The astrology view
To the ear Jax 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 Jax as a contrast, so it ranks lower there.
