Zodiac signs in conflict with Tai Sui in 2027 In folk belief the earthly branch of the year is ruled by Tai Sui (太歲), the year god. Signs whose branch is the same as, opposite to, or in a punishment, harm or break relation with the year branch are said to offend Tai Sui, and many people visit a temple early in the year to pray for a peaceful year. This is a folk custom and traditions differ; treat it as cultural reference.
Relation Zodiac Basis Same as Tai Sui Goat same branch as the year (未) Clash Ox branch opposite the year (未–丑) Punishment Ox, Dog punishment relation (未–丑, 未–戌) Harm Rat harm relation (未–子) Break Dog break relation (未–戌)
