Sun in Aries
The Sun sat in the middle of Aries (13 degrees in). Aries is the ram, ruled by Mars: a sign that goes first and reads the manual later. For Spotify Technology 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
Under the Sun sign sits the Moon, in Scorpio here, and a Moon in Scorpio feels everything and admits to none of it. It was a waning gibbous Moon, just past full, the phase of sharing what was learned. The planets: Mercury in Aries, Venus in Taurus, Mars in Capricorn, Jupiter in Scorpio and Saturn in Capricorn.
The numbers
Add the date's digits and reduce them and you get Life Path 9: the humanitarian, thinking about everyone at once. In BaZi, 2018 gives an Earth Dog year, loyal, principled and suspicious of strangers, and a Day Master of Yin Wood, where wood grows toward the light and does not ask permission.
Numerology reads a name as well as a date. Spell out "Spotify Technology", give each letter its number and reduce, and you get Expression 9: the humanitarian, thinking about everyone at once. The vowels alone give a Soul Urge of 5, the consonants a Personality of 4.
SPOT as a person
Feed SPOT's date to the archetype engine, the one that gives you your title, and it comes back The Gardener. Whether that fits is a matter for its shareholders' group chat.
