Frequently asked questions

How many Chinese zodiac pairings are there?
Seventy-eight unique pairs among the twelve animals. Order does not matter: Rat-Dragon is the same profile as Dragon-Rat.
What are trines, secret friends, and clashes?
They are traditional rules of the 生肖 cycle: 三合 (affinity trines), 六合 (secret friends), and 六冲 (direct clashes). Aurapure computes them; it does not invent them. Symbolic tradition, not a forecast.
Is the year animal enough for compatibility?
No. The year animal is one layer. Aurapure’s Chinese oracle uses the lunar date; for a wider picture use the natal chart and synastry.
Is the text original?
Yes. The profiles are original prose by the Aurapure team, not a citation of a verified classical Chinese source.
