Sun in Aries

TUR has its Sun in early Aries (8 degrees in), the sign of the ram. Tradition says Aries goes first and reads the manual later, and gives it Mars as its ruler. The less flattering half: it 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 Sagittarius here, and a Moon in Sagittarius gets restless the moment things settle. It was a last quarter Moon, half lit and shrinking, read as a time of letting go of the old version. The planets: Mercury in Pisces, Venus in Pisces, Mars in Cancer, Jupiter in Capricorn and Saturn in Virgo.

The numbers

Life Path 5 for iShares MSCI Turkey, which numerology calls the free spirit, bored by anything that stays the same. In BaZi terms: an Earth Rat year (quick, resourceful and first to the food) and a Yin Fire Day Master, because fire warms the room and burns through fuel.

Numerology reads a name as well as a date. Spell out "iShares MSCI Turkey", give each letter its number and reduce, and you get Expression 7: the researcher, who wants to know why before anything else. The vowels alone give a Soul Urge of 5, the consonants a Personality of 11/2.
