Relationship type: Trine
The Tiger and Horse belong to the same trine (san he), a group of three animals four years apart that think alike. This is considered one of the luckiest pairings in Chinese astrology.
Elements: Wood and Fire
Wood (Tiger) feeds Fire (Horse) in the generating cycle, so one partner naturally nourishes the other.
Tiger and Horse in love
The Tiger loves with intensity and protective energy, while the Horse falls fast and needs fun and movement. This works best when the Tiger gets adventure and a partner who won't try to cage them and the Horse gets freedom and an active social life.
Watch-outs
- The Tiger's weak spot is acting on impulse.
- The Horse's weak spot is restlessness.
- Astrology is for fun; respect and communication matter most.
