The Saju view
The first sound is the heaviest in the pronunciation-element system, and for Zion it is metal, made against the teeth. Zion is a metal name in the sound-element table, which is why it ranks near the top for charts that lack metal. A chart lacking water can lean on the metal in Zion, since metal is the parent of water in Saju. Charts crowded with metal tend to look elsewhere, as the metal sound of Zion would tip the balance further.

The astrology view
Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces share the water element with the sound of Zion, so a Sun, Moon or rising sign in one of them gives the name its strongest ranking. Zion is a less natural fit for fire and air signs, whose elements differ from its water sound.
