Sun in Cancer
On that date the Sun was in late Cancer (27 degrees in), so AME is a Cancer. In the tradition that is the crab, which protects its own and remembers everything. It also takes a comment from 2014 personally, still, which is less often put in the prospectus.
Its element is Water. Water signs run on feeling: they read the room before they read the numbers. Its quality is cardinal, the quality that opens each season and likes to go first.
The rest of the sky
The inner planets and the slow ones, as they stood for AME: Mercury in Leo, Venus in Leo, Mars in Scorpio, Jupiter in Capricorn and Saturn in Scorpio. The Moon was in Aries, a placement that feels things instantly and is over them by lunch, at a last quarter Moon, half lit and shrinking, read as a time of letting go of the old version.
The numbers
Reduce July 19, 1984 digit by digit and numerology hands back Life Path 3, the talker, happiest with an audience. Chinese astrology files AME under a Wood Rat year, quick, resourceful and first to the food, with a Day Master of Yang Wood: wood grows toward the light and does not ask permission.
Then there is the name, which is the part of the chart a company chose. By Pythagorean numerology "Ametek" is Expression 1, the self-starter who would rather lead than be consulted, with Soul Urge 11/2 and Personality 8.
AME as a person
The reveal names people by letting seven traditions vote on four questions: move first or wait, this year or the next ten, one thing or many, out loud or in private. Run AME's birth date through it and the tally says The Live Wire.
