Question
hello Mr. Hadju, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to answer this.

I was wondering if you could tell me some things to look out for in a relationship between a male oct-08-1985 3:37am and a female may-10-1987?

thank you for your expertise

Answer
Hi Mike,

You were born during the year of the Wood Ox, month of the Wood Rooster, day of the Water Horse and hour of the Water Tiger (Metal Ox if the time you gave me was daylight savings time).

She was born during the year of the Fire Rabbit, month of the Wood Snake and day of the Earth Sheep.

From a Chinese Astrology perspective this match has an 85% favorable compatibility rating, which is very high. This relationship has a great chance of lasting and bringing you the happiness you seek.

Given the high rating and since you asked the question, there still must be something troubling you. Looking at your chart I do see two, potential sources of difficulty.

First, you two don't have much Water in your two charts. Water is associated with communications, effective ones being vital to maintaining a healthy relationship. So, you both need to be sure you're talking to each other.

Second, your Ox year sign is a disastrous (cross sign) match for her Sheep, day sign. These signs are conflicting opposites. The Sheep requires empathy, gentleness and lots of stroking, all behaviors not normally done by Ox sign people. So, you may not be satisfying her emotional needs. And, she could occasionally drive you crazy, coming off as a whiner and clinging vine.

The positives in this match are many, and it is unlikely either of you could find a better match, even though this one is not perfect. Honestly speaking, it is a lot better than mnost.

If you would like to know more about relationships, I highly recommend Shelly Wu's Chinese Sexual Astrology. Also, please visit my web site, www.onlinechineseastrology.com. If you would like a more detailed analysis, you can order one at the site for a modest charge.
