How the inherited set is built
The relation that makes overlap visible
The six pairs are Rat–Rooster, Horse–Rabbit, Monkey–Snake, Tiger–Pig, Dragon–Ox and Dog–Goat. The same list applies no matter which animal is selected first.
Tiger–Pig and Snake–Monkey demonstrate why a compatibility tool must preserve overlaps: both are Six Harmony and Six Break. Snake–Monkey also sits inside the Punishment of Ingratitude group.
- What it establishes
- It establishes membership in one fixed 六破 pair and makes any simultaneous Harmony, Punishment or other branch relation visible beside it.
