Tiger and Snake Compatibility in Chinese astrology

What Tiger and Snake form

In the Chinese zodiac, the Tiger (寅) and the Snake (巳) are a Six Harm (Liu Hai) pair — a friction pairing traditional readers watch closely. This is a statement about two positions on the zodiac wheel, calculated directly from the branches.

The traditional reading

Six Harm pairs are traditionally described as friction that builds quietly. Readers suggest attention to small misunderstandings rather than dramatic conflict. As with all zodiac relations, the full chart matters more than the year branch alone.

How BaZi refines this

A zodiac pairing only compares year branches. A full BaZi compatibility reading also examines the Day Masters, the Month Pillars, and the visible elements of both charts. Use this page as a starting vocabulary, then build both charts for a fuller picture.

A note on limits

No zodiac relation guarantees an outcome. MingLens presents these pairings as cultural reflection material, not as a rule about real people.
