San He Liu He (三合六合): A Guide to Zodiac Compatibility

San He (Three Harmonies) and Liu He (Six Combinations) are central to Chinese astrology, emphasising harmonious relationships and balanced energies. These systems classify the 12 zodiac animals into compatible pairings or trines based on shared elemental and personality traits.

Historically, San He and Liu He have been used to guide personal relationships, career decisions, and even auspicious gift choices during the Lunar New Year. By embracing this compatibility system, you can align yourself with energies that promote harmony, prosperity, and success in the Year of the Snake.

Finding Your Allies: The Power of San He (三合)

San He refers to groups of three zodiac signs that naturally complement one another, forming strong, harmonious bonds. These alliances are rooted in shared qualities, creating powerful dynamics that enhance personal growth, collaboration, and success.

The Four San He Trines include: 

• Rat, Dragon, and Monkey. This group is known for intelligence, resourcefulness, and adaptability, working together to overcome challenges creatively.
• Ox, Snake, and Rooster.
  Grounded and determined, these signs exhibit precision and resilience, excelling through careful planning and execution.
• Tiger, Horse, and Dog.
  Energetic and courageous, they thrive on action, loyalty, and passion, fueling each other’s ambitions.
• Rabbit, Sheep, and Pig.
  Compassionate and harmonious, these signs prioritise nurturing and collaboration, creating a supportive environment.

These trines highlight the importance of teamwork and mutual support, serving as a powerful reminder of the importance of connecting with like-minded individuals to achieve your personal aspirations.

To celebrate these harmonious connections, SK Jewellery presents the Prosperity 福 Zodiac 999 Pure Gold Bar (0.1g) 三合六合 Bundle.

Strengthening Bonds: The Significance of Liu He (六合)

In the Chinese Zodiac, certain pairings possess a natural affinity and create a harmonious and supportive bond. This is the essence of Liu He (六合), the Six Harmonies, highlighting specific pairs of zodiac animals that complement and enhance each other’s strengths. 

Unlike the collaborative teamwork fostered in San He (三合) alliances, Liu He represents a unique connection where one individual often acts as a “secret benefactor” or guiding force for the other. This dynamic creates a beautiful balance of giving and receiving, where both individuals thrive through mutual support and understanding.

• Tiger & Pig: The Rebel and the Heart
  The fearless Tiger thrives on risk and adventure, while the warm-hearted Pig embodies kindness, patience, and emotional depth. Their connection balances intensity with calm, blending boldness with gentle support.
• Rabbit & Dog: The Idealist and the GuardianThe visionary Rabbit seeks harmony and beauty, while the loyal Dog stands as a protector, grounded in honesty and courage. Their bond is built on mutual respect, trust, and a quiet understanding.
• Dragon & Rooster: The Visionary and the Perfectionist
  The ambitious Dragon dreams big, driven by passion and charisma, while the meticulous Rooster excels in discipline and attention to detail. The Rooster grounds the Dragon’s lofty ideas, while the Dragon pushes the Rooster to embrace boldness. Together, they’re a powerhouse of vision and precision.
• Snake & Monkey: The Sage and the Trickster
  The wise, reflective Snake values strategy and depth, while the curious, quick-witted Monkey thrives on novelty and playful charm. The Snake teaches patience and foresight, while the Monkey adds spontaneity and lightness, creating a dynamic blend of intellect and creativity.
• Horse & Goat: The Free Spirit and the Dream Weaver
  The adventurous Horse craves freedom and movement, while the artistic, nurturing Goat values emotional connection and tranquillity. The Horse inspires the Goat to embrace new experiences, while the Goat provides emotional grounding, offering a comforting balance of passion and peace.

These pairings serve as a reminder that the strongest relationships often arise from differences. Through mutual respect and balance, they create environments where both individuals can thrive and grow.
