The Saju view
In the pronunciation-element system the opening sound of Virginia belongs to water, since it is made with the lips. Names that sound like Virginia are filed under water. When a birth chart runs low on water, a name like this is read as adding what is missing. In the cycle where each element nourishes the next, water gives rise to wood, so Virginia earns some credit for charts missing wood. Charts crowded with water tend to look elsewhere, as the water sound of Virginia would tip the balance further.
