How Chinese zodiac compatibility works
Traditional compatibility is based on where two signs sit on the zodiac wheel.
- Triangles of affinity: signs four years apart share a similar temperament. The Rabbit belongs with the Goat and the Pig.
- Secret friends: each sign has one quiet ally. The Rabbit’s is the Dog.
- Opposite signs: signs six years apart pull in different directions. The Rabbit’s opposite is the Rooster.
- Uneasy pairs: a few pairings tend to misread each other. For the Rabbit that is the Dragon.
These are tendencies, not verdicts. A challenging match can work very well when both people understand where the friction comes from. See the full Chinese zodiac compatibility chart.
