Monkey Compatibility — All 12 Zodiac Animal Matches
How the Monkey matches every other Chinese zodiac animal: Six Harmony, Three Harmony and clash relationships, scored and explained.
Quick answer
Which animals is the Monkey structurally matched with?
On the birth-year branch alone, the Monkey holds a Six Harmony or Three Harmony with Rat (鼠), Dragon (龙), Snake (蛇), and a clash or hidden clash with Tiger (虎), Pig (猪). That is the structure of the relationship, not an outcome — the year branch is one of four pillars, and the other three are read the same way.

of four. Two people are far more than their birth years.

Two Monkey together is a particular kind of match —
where they harmonise by default, and where they collide because there is no contrast.
