Horse and Pig
Why this score

- Water and Fire: one restrains the other
- Complementary yin and yang
- Match score 4.5/10
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
The tradition neither binds nor opposes them: none of the six classical relations links these two branches. Their match is read mostly in their elements and their yin and yang.
These relations come from the tables of the classical Chinese tradition, which link the twelve earthly branches.
The five elements
The element of the Pig tempers that of the Horse: 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 Horse is yang, the sign of the Pig is yin: they complete each other, one reaches out while the other takes in.
