Relationship prep

Good compatibility questions start before the charts meet.

A useful compatibility reading is not about projecting fantasy onto two birth charts. It works best when the relationship question is honest, the available birth details are clear, and the user understands whether they want pattern, fit, or immediate decision support.

What helps most

Prepare the question before the reading.

Know what you want to understand

Are you asking about emotional pattern, long-term fit, conflict repetition, or whether to act now? Those are not the same question.

Use the best birth details you have

Better details create a clearer frame. Even when time is missing, it helps to be honest about the limits instead of pretending certainty.

Avoid treating one score like fate

The point is to understand dynamics, not collapse the relationship into one number or one dramatic label.

Know when to switch tools

If the issue is “what should I do about this one thing right now?”, compatibility may need to hand the question to Liu Yao.

Best next step

Clarify the relationship layer before you ask for a decision.

Compatibility is strongest when it explains the relationship pattern. Liu Yao becomes stronger when the issue turns into one immediate next move.

FAQ

Common compatibility-prep questions.

Do I need both birth times?

No, but better data gives a stronger frame. If time is missing, the site should stay honest about the limits.

Can compatibility answer whether I should text someone today?

Not as well as a question-based method. That is usually a better fit for Liu Yao or I Ching style guidance.

Why teach preparation publicly?

Because users trust the product more when it helps them ask better questions before asking them to pay.
