The Saju view
The first sound is the heaviest in the pronunciation-element system, and for Taylor it is fire, made with the tip of the tongue. Saju listeners hear fire in Taylor, the element tied to summer and to warmth. Charts with little fire are the ones it answers best. A chart lacking earth can lean on the fire in Taylor, since fire is the parent of earth in Saju. Charts crowded with fire tend to look elsewhere, as the fire sound of Taylor would tip the balance further.
