缘分How the Tiger and the Rooster get along

The Tiger and the Rooster have no special traditional bond: no trine, harmony, clash, harm or punishment between them. That makes this a neutral match where personality and the element relationship (Wood and Metal) decide how it goes.

The Tiger brings courage and big energy and needs freedom and respect. The Rooster brings precision and honesty and needs appreciation and order.

五行Element match

The Rooster carries Metal, which controls the Tiger's Wood. The Rooster can end up leading or dominating; the pair works best when the Rooster uses that strength to protect rather than to push.

爱情Love and marriage

In love it is an open book: much depends on effort and on the two full birth charts. Tigers love passionately and openly. They want a partner who respects their independence and matches their energy, and they are fiercely loyal once committed. Roosters are loyal, dependable partners who show love by taking care of practical details. They value honesty and need a partner who appreciates their efforts and can handle frank talk.

事业Friendship and work

At work they can be a practical team if they respect each other's methods. Tigers thrive in leadership, entrepreneurship, the military and emergency services, sports, activism and any role that needs courage and initiative. Roosters excel in accounting, medicine, the military, journalism, quality control, fashion and any role that rewards precision and standards.
