Monster Beverage is a Sagittarius

A chart that aims far, travels widely and promises big. Monster Beverage is a listed company, so its birthday is the day its shares first changed hands in public, filed under Consumer Staples.

The birth certificate

Monster Beverage's first trade was on Monday, December 9, 1985. In financial astrology, that is the birthday, and MNST gets a chart like anyone else.

Sun in Sagittarius

The Sun sat in the middle of Sagittarius (17 degrees in). Sagittarius is the archer, ruled by Jupiter: a sign that aims far, travels widely and promises big. For Monster Beverage that reads as a character that announces the destination before checking the map, and one that is optimistic in a way that needs supervision.

Fire signs run on enthusiasm: they start things, and they would like you to watch. Sagittarius is also mutable, the quality that closes each season and adapts to whatever comes next. Put together, MNST is fire and mutable.

The rest of the sky

Astrology reads the Moon as the private mood behind the public face. Monster Beverage has it in Scorpio, which feels everything and admits to none of it. That day brought a waning crescent, the last sliver before dark, read as rest and quiet preparation, with Mercury in Scorpio, Venus in Sagittarius, Mars in Libra, Jupiter in Aquarius and Saturn in Sagittarius.

The numbers

Add the date's digits and reduce them and you get Life Path 8: the executive, the number numerology ties most closely to money and power. In BaZi, 1985 gives a Wood Ox year, steady, strong and unimpressed by hurry, and a Day Master of Yang Water, where water finds the way around whatever is in front of it.

Dates are given; names are picked. "Monster Beverage" reduces to Expression 7 (the researcher, who wants to know why before anything else). Count only its vowels for a Soul Urge of 9; only its consonants for a Personality of 7.

MNST as a person

If Monster Beverage typed its birth date into NatalWealth, the engine that names people would call it The Quiet Machine. That is the same engine, the same seven traditions and the same four questions a person gets.
