How Chinese Zodiac Compatibility Works
Chinese zodiac compatibility is based on three structural patterns in the 12-animal cycle:
Trines (Best)
Animals 4 positions apart form "trines", three signs with natural energetic harmony. Rat-Dragon-Monkey, Ox-Snake-Rooster, Tiger-Horse-Dog, Rabbit-Goat-Pig.
Opposites (Challenging)
Animals 6 positions apart oppose on the cycle, their energies naturally clash. Rat↔Horse, Ox↔Goat, Tiger↔Monkey, Rabbit↔Rooster, Dragon↔Dog, Snake↔Pig.
