The Tiger and the Horse — Half triad

What relationship the Tiger and the Horse have, what it scores, and how far that score moves the final match rate — laid out exactly as Inyeon-Link's calculation rules have it.

The Tiger and the Horse form a half triad

The Tiger and the Horse form a half triad. 寅午戌 is one triad group (the fire group), and 午 is the royal branch at its centre.

Inyeon-Link accepts only pairs that include the royal branch, so this pair is a half triad (88).

The Dog (戌) and the Tiger (寅) of the same group lack the central character 午, so they are not counted as a harmony and are treated as neutral.

On the circle, 寅 is in the third place and 午 in the seventh, and the two characters are four steps apart.

How far it moves the final match rate

If everything else is equal, this pair raises the final match rate by 6.0 points in zodiac compatibility and by 2.8 points in day branch compatibility, compared with a neutral pair.

Zodiac compatibility sets the branches of the birth years side by side, and day branch compatibility sets those of the birth days. The two can be different branches, so the same two people can show different relationships in each.
