Can I also say something not usually mentioned about the chinese signs?

Yin goes with Yang

Earth and Fire are soulmates

And Air (Metal) and Water are soulmates

Earth and Fire are both sensual sultry seductive as well as highly emotional and sentimental on the inside while sneaky playful and mischevious on the outside. Full of lifw, they are like little kids who are romantics at heart and yearn to have a taste of all the good things in life.

Air and Water are both somewhat detached from their sensuality...cold, matter-of-fact, reserved....they are easy to spot because of their less little kid-like expressions and their big round detached eyes----they seem more rational maybe. They can have problems with the Earth and Fire signs, who long to make everything in life one huge sentimental journey.

If you notice, Air and Water's eyes are big wide eyed and cold, seemingly thinking about something serious and rational : P not fully letting you in

While Earth and Fire sign's eyes are full of wonder, kindness, amazement enchantment, etc..full of emotion. And always a sneaky grin hidden in there : P

Wood is a bit like jupiter, although from what I know, it's said that it also shares some of water's qualities, such as creativity.

quote:

In Chinese Taoist thought, Wood attributes are considered to be strength and flexibility, as with bamboo. It is also associated with qualities of warmth, generosity, co-operation and idealism. The Wood person will be expansive, outgoing and socially conscious. The wood element is one that seeks ways to grow and expand. Wood heralds the beginning of life, springtime and buds, sensuality and fecundity. Wood needs moisture to thrive.

In Chinese medicine, wood is associated with negative feelings of anger, positive feelings of patience, and altruism.

And yeah, that makes sense that Wood is like Jupiter because the Wood element is ruled by Jupiter.

Year - Wood Pig
Month - Wood Rooster
Day - Metal Pig
Hour - Metal Tiger

So would you consider me a Wood dominant, Water dominant or Metal dominant person?

Because two of my elements are Wood, while two of them are Metal. Also, do we take into consideration the natural elements for the signs? For example, the Pig is naturally Water, and I have two Pigs, so does that make me a Water dominant person?

Wood = 3 (two Woods and a Tiger - which is naturally ruled by Wood)
Metal = 3 (two Metals and a Rooster - which is naturally ruled by Metal)
Water = 2 (two Pigs - which are naturally ruled by Water)
Fire = 0
Earth = 0

The month is like the Sun-sign and hour is like the Ascendant. So what do you personally think?

I am not sure which would be stronger since only your ascendant is the Tiger.

Haha. Dragon Moon sounds pretty cool

Yeah, me neither.

I meant what element could be used to describe each "trine"

I was trying to make it similar to astrology so it'd be easier to understand

The concept of "soulmates" between signs is something that I haven't seen mentioned.

Compatibility between signs:

Compatible: 4 groups

Snake - Rooster - Ox
Monkey - Rat - Dragon
Tiger - Horse - Dog
Pig - Rabbit - Goat.

Incompatible:

Tiger - Monkey - Snake - Pig
Dragon - Dog - Ox - Goat
Rat - Horse - Rabbit - Rooster

I see that the Rabbit and Goat are trine and are Yin like the Pig, while the Monkey and Tiger are square and Snake opposite.

Got it. Thank you, 12muddy

chinese astrology masters talked about it when they talk about which signs will have good luck during a sign's year

I would not want to be anything other than a metal dog!! I don't have brushy eyebrows though. Mine are very Virgo rising.
Dogs are all about FAIRNESS!!

F*ck Valentine's! Let's hear it for Birthday Aqua boy and my hero Simon Pegg, today is his birthday, he is a metal Dog! Makes me feel like a Simon Pegg movie marathon.

Many biggies are Dogs so yeah.. I am asking you take a bow. Silence please. .........
Madonna, Michael Jackson, Prince, David Bowie, Brigitte Bardot, Freddy Mercury... Of course I am joking, everyone is awesome!
What I have learned is that Dogs are very well preserved, can hold their beauty for a long time. I don't know if that is true for all dogs. And, I don't care. It's about what's inside that counts right?!
