CSCO · first trade · 1990

Cisco Systems is an Aquarius

A chart that prefers a system to a person and a future to a present. Cisco Systems is a listed company, so its birthday is the day its shares first changed hands in public, filed under Information Technology.

The birth certificate

Cisco Systems's first trade was on Friday, February 16, 1990. No hospital, no birth certificate, but a date and a time, which is all a chart needs.

Sun in Aquarius

The Sun sat in late Aquarius (27 degrees in). Aquarius is the water bearer, ruled by Saturn and Uranus: a sign that invents, networks and ignores how it has always been done. For Cisco Systems that reads as a character that prefers a system to a person and a future to a present, and one that is friendly with everyone and close with nobody.

Its element is Air. Air signs run on ideas: they connect, compare and talk it through. Its quality is fixed, the quality that holds the middle of each season and does not budge.

The rest of the sky

Moon in Scorpio: the mood that feels everything and admits to none of it. Phase: a last quarter Moon, half lit and shrinking, read as a time of letting go of the old version. And Mercury in Aquarius, Venus in Capricorn, Mars in Capricorn, Jupiter in Cancer and Saturn in Capricorn, for completeness.

The numbers

Reduce February 16, 1990 digit by digit and numerology hands back Life Path 1, the self-starter who would rather lead than be consulted. Chinese astrology files CSCO under a Metal Horse year, energetic, independent and allergic to fences, with a Day Master of Yang Water: water finds the way around whatever is in front of it.

Then there is the name, which is the part of the chart a company chose. By Pythagorean numerology "Cisco Systems" is Expression 7, the researcher, who wants to know why before anything else, with Soul Urge 2 and Personality 5.

CSCO 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 CSCO's birth date through it and the tally says The Live Wire.
