The year's animal is the one everyone knows; the tradition reads three more — the inner animal of the month, the true animal of the day, and the secret animal of the hour.
Symbolic stars · 神煞

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 桃花 Peach Blossom | year and day branch | 卯 | hour pillar | charm and attraction; romance, and the trouble it brings |
| 驛馬 Travelling Horse | year and day branch | 申 | — | movement: travel, relocation, a life on the road |
| 華蓋 Canopy | year and day branch | 戌 | year pillar | the scholar's and the monk's star: art, solitude, the spiritual |
| 將星 General | year and day branch | 午 | month pillar | command and leadership; the one others follow |
| 天乙貴人 Nobleman | day stem | 丑 未 | — | help from above: patrons, rescue in trouble |
| 文昌 Academic star | day stem | 申 | — | learning, examinations, the written word |
| 羊刃 Yang Blade | day stem | 午 | month pillar | sharpness and force; injury, surgery, the edge |
| 紅鸞 Red Phoenix | year branch | 巳 | — | marriage and happy occasions |
| 天喜 Heavenly Joy | year branch | 亥 | — | celebration, births, good news |
Each star is a branch named by the year or day pillar; it is present when one of your four branches stands there. The dimmed rows are the ones that do not.
空亡 Void: the day pillar 戊寅 falls in 甲戌旬, whose void branches are 申酉 — none of your other branches stands there.
Your Dog and the other animals
| 子 Rat | no fixed pair | neither bound nor at odds |
| 丑 Ox | no fixed pair | neither bound nor at odds |
| 寅 Tiger | three harmony | the natural allies: the same element made together |
| 卯 Rabbit | combination | the two bind: alliance, attachment, a matter held together |
| 辰 Dragon | clash | the two pull apart: movement, separation, a matter forced open |
| 巳 Snake | no fixed pair | neither bound nor at odds |
| 午 Horse | three harmony | the natural allies: the same element made together |
| 未 Goat | no fixed pair | neither bound nor at odds |
| 申 Monkey | no fixed pair | neither bound nor at odds |

| 戌 Dog | your own sign | alike, and apt to repeat each other |
| 亥 Pig | no fixed pair | neither bound nor at odds |
The year branches' fixed pairs: the six combinations and three-harmony triads are the allies, the clash and the harm the strains. The same table the compare pages use.
