  5. Match score 9.5/10

The score is ours: the classical relation weighs most, the elements and the sources nuance it, yin and yang barely touch it.

The classical relation

Triad

Favourable

Both signs belong to the same group of three, gathered around one element. They pursue the same aim and strengthen each other.

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

The five elements

EarthOx
nourishes
MetalRooster

The element of the Ox 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).

Yin and yang

Both are yin: the same inward pull, but no one to carry the other along.
