Compatibility / Rat and Tiger
Rat and Tiger compatibility
Rat and Tiger have no harmony and no clash between them, so this match is decided by the two people. The Tiger charges ahead; the Rat plans the route and keeps something in reserve. It can be a sharp combination when the Tiger listens and the Rat speaks up.
The traditional rules say nothing special about these two signs: no harmony pulls them together and no clash pushes them apart. That leaves more room for the actual people than for the zodiac. Pairs like this often grow by learning each other's rhythm rather than sharing one from the start.
In love
The Rat admires the Tiger's courage and the Tiger enjoys the Rat's wit. Problems start when the Tiger's big gestures run into the Rat's caution about money, or when the Rat's carefulness looks like doubt to the Tiger. Decide together what is worth a risk, so the Rat is not always the one saying no.
As friends
The Tiger starts the dare and the Rat works out how to pull it off. Lively, loyal and occasionally exasperating in both directions.
At work
The Tiger leads and the Rat manages, which is a strong pairing in a new venture. Agree on budgets and limits early, because the Tiger will commit before the Rat has finished counting.
One tip for this pair
Tigers: ask the Rat before you promise. Rats: say yes to the occasional leap.
