The classical relation

Six harmony

Favourable

The two branches form one of the six pairs that combine. The classical tradition sees a natural understanding in it, a bond that builds without effort.

These relations come from the tables of the classical Chinese tradition, which link the twelve earthly branches.

The five elements

MetalRooster

The element of the Dragon feeds that of the Rooster: one supports the other, and energy flows between them on its own.

In the cycle of the five phases, each element nourishes another (Wood feeds Fire) and restrains another (Water restrains Fire).
