The Reading · Triangle of Affinity
Rabbit and Pig are tied by San He, the three harmonies.
Rabbit and Pig are natural allies and this is one of the gentlest pairings in the cycle. Neither of you is competitive, neither is cruel, and neither has ever been much impressed by ambition as a way to spend a life. Pig stopped to eat, fell asleep and finished anyway; Rabbit crossed carefully and got lucky at the right moment. Both of you would rather be comfortable and among people you like than be ahead of anybody. What you make together is a home in the full sense: generous, unhurried, well fed, and open to whoever needs it, and both of you regard that as an entirely sufficient life.
Nothing has to be defended here. Pig's easy good nature is exactly what settles a Rabbit's wariness, and Rabbit's tact protects a Pig from the people who would otherwise take advantage of it. Neither of you demands to be entertained or reassured, both of you forgive quickly, and the pleasures you want are the same ones. It is uncomplicated in a way that neither of you has necessarily experienced before.
Nobody insists on anything. Two people this accommodating will let a practical problem run indefinitely rather than have an unpleasant conversation, and both of you would rather absorb a cost than name it. Comfort also becomes inertia: the job, the habit, the situation that stopped being any good, all of it preserved because changing it would require somebody to push. And neither of you will be the one to say that the other is drinking too much, spending too much, or letting something slide.
In the generating cycle water feeds wood, so Pig supplies what Rabbit runs on. That direction is worth knowing: the giving here is not symmetrical.
Both yin: inward, receptive, and observant, which is restful until something needs saying out loud.
