Question
Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to answer this compatibility question:  male April 14, 1962  with female August 18, 1977.
Thank you!

Answer
Hi Nicky,

The male was born during the year of the Water Tiger, month of the Wood Dragon and day of the Water Horse.

The female was born during the year of the Fire Snake, month of the Earth Monkey and day of the Fire Sheep.

From a Chinese Astrology perspective this match has about a 50% compatibility rating, which is average. It has a 50-50 chance of lasting and bringing them the happiness they seek.

It's easy to see why they are drawn together as their month signs are a perfect match.

Unfortunately there are some serious negatives. Both their year and day signs are Fire and Water respectively. This combination in Chinese spells disaster. Also, the male has two signs from the Tiger-Horse-Dog compatibility group, and the female has none. She may thus not be able to satisfy his needs represented by this group.

Generally the female is likely to be more cerebral (in her head) while the male is more physical and emotional.

This relationship can work, but it will take a lot of effort and compromise from both parties if it is to last. To be honest, both can do better.

If you would like to learn 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 detailed analysis of this relationship, you can order one at the site for a modest charge.

Thank u for your question.

Expertise

Chinese Astrology. I`ve done Chinese astrology for over 20 years, pimary experience Ming Shu style. I am NOT a psychic. I can't answer questions about when a particular event will occur, when/if your life will change, or what your spouse is going to be/look like. I do comment on relationships, career, personality analysis and life cycle chi, i.e., energy level and influences at each of the five stages of life. I evaluate specific relationships or can look at your love life in general. I can tell you your best career choices and whether the one you've chosen is good for you. And, I can identify the strong and weak times in your life. I've done work for Yahoo, astrology.com and onlinechineseastrology.com.

Experience

I've studied Chinese astrology for over 20 years now and done several thousand charts. My specialty is four pillars method, particularly as applied to evaluating relationships. I've also done Nine Star Ki and readings using Mah Jong tiles. My next step is to learn Purple Star astrology. It identifies many more chart details, but accurate readings are time consuming and dependent upon a lifetime of acquired experience.
