“One of the four great triangles, and the strongest tie the lunar wheel has to offer.”

The Reading · Triangle of Affinity

Horse and Dog are tied by San He, the three harmonies.

What works

The four trines group the animals who want the same things out of a life. You arrive at conclusions in the same order, you back each other without being asked, and you tend to be the two people in a group project who quietly get it done while everyone else debates.

Where it snags

Being this aligned makes it easy to close the circle. Two people who agree on everything can talk each other out of every outside opinion worth hearing.

In the generating cycle fire feeds earth, so Horse supplies what Dog runs on. That direction is worth knowing: the giving here is not symmetrical.

Both yang: outward, fast, and expressive, with nobody assigned to the quiet half of the room.
