Zodiac compatibility 7 / 12 · Horse (午)
Which animals pair with the Horse? By the fixed branch tables: 3 closest (the six-harmony partner and the two trine peers), 3 strained (clash, harm, break, punishment), and 5 with no fixed relation. **Every relation here is a lookup, not a score — this page gives no compatibility percentages.**
Computed row by row: every fixed-table relation between the Horse and the other eleven animals (plus its own sign). One animal can appear on several tables — tables are independent, and this page lists them all side by side.
| Animal | Branch | Relation(s) | Group |
|---|---|---|---|
| 子 Rat | 子 Zi | clash | strained |
| 丑 Ox | 丑 Chou | harm | strained |
| 寅 Tiger | 寅 Yin | trine (火) | closest |
| 卯 Rabbit | 卯 Mao | break | strained |
| 辰 Dragon | 辰 Chen | none | no fixed relation |
| 巳 Snake | 巳 Si | none | no fixed relation |
| Horse (this page) | 午 Wu | self-punishment | same sign |
| 未 Goat | 未 Wei | six harmony (→土) | closest |
| 申 Monkey | 申 Shen | none | no fixed relation |
| 酉 Rooster | 酉 You | none | no fixed relation |
| 戌 Dog | 戌 Xu | trine (火) | closest |
| 亥 Pig | 亥 Hai | none | no fixed relation |
Six harmony — folk tradition calls it the secret friend — is the only one-to-one union in the six tables: for the Horse it is 未 Goat, combining into 土. The trine is a group of three: the Horse sits in the Fire trine with 寅 Tiger and 戌 Dog. These three are what tradition calls the best matches — a table fact, not a personality claim.
Clash 子 Rat, harm 丑 Ox, break 卯 Rabbit. The four tables are independent and can stack, so the strained group is a different size for every animal.
Break is the least-cited of the six tables; this site lists it like clash and harm, with no fortune-telling added.
Six harmony, trine, clash, harm, break and punishment are **fixed tables**: a pair is either on a table or it is not. Any number like 92% compatible invents precision that the tables do not have — dressing a structural relation up as a statistical one. This site prints all six tables and the basis for every row classification, so you can check every cell yourself. Whether these relations feel good in real life is not a question any table can answer.
