Compatibility

A beautiful and intelligent girl called Du Lanxiang wanted to marry a youth of about 16 or 17 called Chang, but when she compared their horoscopes she saw that they were astrologically incompatible. As the historical records reveal, she said that "the numbers of their lives did not correspond". But she was well-versed in astrological lore and advised her lover that they should wait until "the year star was in the East", she asked him to wait until the year of the Rabbit before they can get married. The sign of the Rabbit would have been one that made the two opposing signs into a compatible group. They married that year, and as the story books say, lived happily ever after.
