He is always dependable enough to bring home the bacon and she is loving and doting enough to cook it just the way he likes it. Very satisfying and rewarding union. He is strong and silent and loves being fussed over and admired by his outgoing wife and she is content with the security and stability he provides. Both will have few complaints.

Both members of this team are serious and industrious to a dismal extent. Neither is lively enough to provide some respite from all that work they have planned. An extremely reserved and civil union of two security conscious subjects who are both pessimistic and strong willed. They may end up showing each other too much of their negative sides

He is interested in personal success and achievement; she is interested in herself before anything else. He is practical, well-organized and stable; she finds him too predictable and dour. The Tiger wife can be very temperamental if she feels neglected, while the Ox cannot stand tantrums and will not tolerate her fussing over nothing. They are on different wavelengths. The reserved Ox will be shocked by the Tiger's unrestrained and passionate display of emotions. She on the other hand will be frustrated by his coldness and may need a more warm-blooded and responsive partner.

The Rabbit/Cat finds the Ox steady, realistic and dependable while the Ox sees her as sociable, sympathetic and feminine. However, he can be very exacting and will criticize her for her lack of discipline and she will respond by becoming withdrawn and oversensitive. But getting to know each other may be well worth an effort in this marriage, as both of them could sustain a satisfying relationship if they can adjust a bit.

Will not be an entirely harmonious union. He is slow and deliberate, too methodical for the pioneering and dynamic likes of the fiery and excitable Dragon woman. He could make her more persevering but she will still be imprudent and daring at times. It's possible she can enliven him with her optimism or drive him further away. He can be a cold and unemotional loner while she needs fun, friends and variety. Both these strong personalities will have to respect and admire each other a great deal before they agree to make any adjustments to each other.

A very enduring and happy combination. The Ox has high standards of achievement and the Snake wife is equally ambitious and materialistic. She will be appreciative of the luxury and comforts he can provide. He finds her very well mannered and presentable - and astute in financial matters as well. Both will be happy fulfilling their part of the relationship. He will be a source of strength for her and she will be his pride and joy.

Not many favorable aspects for this match. She is carefree and uninhibited and he is industrious and down to earth. He wants a well organized and pleasant home and she is too restless to stay pinned down. She needs freedom and diversion. He cannot comprehend her instability and lack of devotion to him. Difficult for either to find complete harmony.

She can organize an artistic and comfortable nest for him while he acts as her defender. But he is prudent and perservering while she is sentimental and capricious. He accumulates and she spends. The Ox is strong and decisive; she is weak and insecure. She loves being sheltered and reassured, but Mr Ox may not be so obliging as he expects a great deal from others and his Sheep wife will become depressed when he exacts too much discipline and self-denial from her. Both may find the going rough at times.

Both are self assured and know what they want. And what they want may not be each other. He is simple, serious and matter of fact. She is attractive, complicated and self-centred. They both love success and money but they have entirely different ideas on how to attain success and how to spend the money. Mrs Monkey is quite accomplished and independent and not as security-minded as he. She could find him becoming tyrannical when she takes his orders lightly while he cannot quite get her to pay him the respect and admiration he craves. If he flaunts his authority, she will enrage him - by laughing in his face. Neither will ever succeed in subordinating the other.

Both are hardworking and industrious. He values self-respect and devotion to duty and his competent and conscientious Rooster wife will certainly win his admiration. They both love analysing and organizing, and neither is too easily hurt or sensitive about criticism. They can be objective and methodical in managing the office as well as the household. Both love simple pleasures and intelletual pursuits and will excel in specialized fields. She doesn't mind his exacting nature as she is very attentive to details; he on the other hand will take her criticism constructively and not feel reproached. A happy and contented pair.

He looks for money and prestige; he abhors dependency. She is generous, open minded and a loyal ally. But he could be too Spartan and domineering for his friendly and communicative wife. She will be tough, outspoken and touchy if he pushes her too hard. She could find him too rigid and aloof for her tastes and he may find her questioning mind and cynical logic hard to swallow. Otherwise they might enjoy each other's company.

They will make the best of each other's outstanding qualities. He is serious, well-mannered and success-oriented while she is patient, self-sacrificing and devoted. He is hardworking and she is trusting enough to support and encourage him every step of the way. Her tastes may be richer than his and she is more sensual and demonstrative. However she will be understanding of his needs and help make him less reticent and stubborn..
