Sun in Scorpio
Scorpio, the middle of Scorpio (10 degrees in): iShares Select Dividend shares a sign with the scorpion, ruled by Mars and Pluto. Read as a personality, it reads the footnotes and then the footnotes' sources. Read less kindly, it holds a grudge like a long position.
Water signs run on feeling: they read the room before they read the numbers. Scorpio is also fixed, the quality that holds the middle of each season and does not budge. Put together, DVY is water and fixed.
The rest of the sky
The inner planets and the slow ones, as they stood for DVY: Mercury in Scorpio, Venus in Sagittarius, Mars in Pisces, Jupiter in Virgo and Saturn in Cancer. The Moon was in Pisces, a placement that soaks up whatever mood is in the room, at a waxing gibbous Moon, almost full, the phase of refining before the reveal.
The numbers
Numerology gives iShares Select Dividend Life Path 1, the self-starter who would rather lead than be consulted. The Chinese calendar gives it a Water Goat year (gentle, creative and fond of comfort), and its Day Master, the element of the day itself, is Yang Metal: metal cuts, refines and keeps its edges sharp.
Dates are given; names are picked. "iShares Select Dividend" reduces to Expression 7 (the researcher, who wants to know why before anything else). Count only its vowels for a Soul Urge of 3; only its consonants for a Personality of 4.
