Sun in Aries

The Sun sat in the middle of Aries (17 degrees in). Aries is the ram, ruled by Mars: a sign that goes first and reads the manual later. For MSCI Emerging Markets that reads as a character that treats every door as something to be through already, and one that mistakes speed for a plan about once a quarter.

As an element, Fire. Fire signs run on enthusiasm: they start things, and they would like you to watch. As a quality, Cardinal, which is the quality that opens each season and likes to go first.

The rest of the sky

Moon in Gemini: the mood that processes every feeling by describing it to someone. Phase: a waxing crescent, the first sliver after the new Moon, read as early momentum. And Mercury in Taurus, Venus in Pisces, Mars in Capricorn, Jupiter in Leo and Saturn in Gemini, for completeness.

The numbers

Reduce April 7, 2003 digit by digit and numerology hands back Life Path 7, the researcher, who wants to know why before anything else. Chinese astrology files EEM under a Water Goat year, gentle, creative and fond of comfort, with a Day Master of Yang Metal: metal cuts, refines and keeps its edges sharp.

Numerology reads a name as well as a date. Spell out "MSCI Emerging Markets", give each letter its number and reduce, and you get Expression 11/2: a master number, the visionary who picks up signals nobody else hears. The vowels alone give a Soul Urge of 7, the consonants a Personality of 4.
