The classical relation
Six harmony
FavourableThe 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
The element of the Rabbit tempers that of the Dog: one keeps the other in check, fruitful while it stays respectful, heavy once it turns into control.
In the cycle of the five phases, each element nourishes another (Wood feeds Fire) and restrains another (Water restrains Fire).
Yin and yang
The sign of the Dog is yang, the sign of the Rabbit is yin: they complete each other, one reaches out while the other takes in.
