What are Branch Relationships?
Branch Relationships are the technical interactions between Earthly Branches in your BaZi chart. These relationships reveal how different parts of your chart interact with each other, creating harmony, conflict, or transformation in your life.
The 12 Earthly Branches (Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, Pig) can form various relationships when they appear together in your chart. Understanding these relationships helps you understand your personality dynamics, relationship patterns, and life challenges.
Clashes (ε²)
When branches are 6 positions apart (e.g., Rat-Horse, Ox-Goat). These create conflict, tension, and change. Clashes can bring sudden events, disruptions, or transformations in life.
Six Harmonies (ε ε)
Six special pairs that combine harmoniously (Rat+Ox, Tiger+Pig, Rabbit+Dog, Dragon+Rooster, Snake+Monkey, Horse+Goat). These create cooperation, attraction, and mutual support.
Three Harmonies (δΈε)
Three branches that form a triangle of harmony (Monkey+Rat+Dragon, Snake+Rooster+Ox, Tiger+Horse+Dog, Rabbit+Goat+Pig). These create powerful synergy and support.
Punishments (ε)
Special combinations that create internal conflict or self-sabotage. These can indicate areas where you struggle with yourself or face internal challenges.
Fun Fact
Branch relationships are like the "chemistry" between different parts of your personality. Just like people can get along well (harmonies) or clash (conflicts), the branches in your chart interact in similar ways, creating the unique dynamics of your life.
Understanding Branch Interactions
Each type of branch relationship has a different meaning and impact on your life:
Clashes
Create change, movement, and sometimes conflict. They can bring opportunities through disruption or challenges that force growth. Clashes affect the specific life areas represented by those pillars.
Six Harmonies
Create smooth cooperation and mutual attraction. When these branches appear together, they work well as a team, creating positive outcomes in the areas they represent.
Three Harmonies
The strongest form of harmony. When all three branches of a triangle appear, they create powerful synergy and support. This is considered very auspicious in BaZi.
Punishments & Destructions
Create internal tension or destructive patterns. These can indicate areas where you need to work on yourself or where challenges may arise. Understanding them helps you prepare and grow.
