Sun in Scorpio
On that date the Sun was in the middle of Scorpio (19 degrees in), so GDXJ is a Scorpio. In the tradition that is the scorpion, which goes deep, keeps secrets and plays the long game. It also holds a grudge like a long position, 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 fixed, the quality that holds the middle of each season and does not budge.
The rest of the sky
Astrology reads the Moon as the private mood behind the public face. VanEck Junior Gold Miners has it in Virgo, which calms down by tidying something. That day brought a waning crescent, the last sliver before dark, read as rest and quiet preparation, with Mercury in Scorpio, Venus in Scorpio, Mars in Leo, Jupiter in Aquarius and Saturn in Libra.
The numbers
Numerology gives VanEck Junior Gold Miners Life Path 6, the caretaker, responsible for everyone whether they asked or not. The Chinese calendar gives it an Earth Ox year (steady, strong and unimpressed by hurry), and its Day Master, the element of the day itself, is Yang Metal: metal cuts, refines and keeps its edges sharp.
Then there is the name, which is the part of the chart a company chose. By Pythagorean numerology "VanEck Junior Gold Miners" is Expression 7, the researcher, who wants to know why before anything else, with Soul Urge 8 and Personality 8.
