Chinese Zodiac Compatibility Factors

Chinese zodiac compatibility is influenced by the interaction between the five elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water) and the animal signs. There are some general rules for determining compatibility:
1. Complementary Signs
Some zodiac signs are considered naturally compatible because they balance each other’s strengths and weaknesses.
For example:Rat is compatible with Ox.
2. Incompatible Signs
Some signs are less compatible due to conflicting traits or temperaments.
For example:Rat may struggle with Horse.
3. The Four Trines
The Chinese zodiac groups the twelve animals into four trines, with each trine consisting of three compatible signs.
First Trine (Rat, Dragon, Monkey): These signs are intelligent, strong-willed, and ambitious.
Second Trine (Ox, Snake, Rooster): These signs are hardworking, methodical, and diligent.
Third Trine (Tiger, Horse, Dog): These signs are passionate, independent, and open-minded.
Fourth Trine (Rabbit, Goat, Pig): These signs are calm, empathetic, and diplomatic.
4. Opposition Signs
Some zodiac signs are considered direct opposites in terms of personality and values, which can lead to friction.
For instance:Rat opposes Horse.
