What is Pee Chong? Year clashes, explained

Pee Chong is the Thai-Chinese practice of checking whether your zodiac animal clashes with the year, or with another person.

What it is

Chong comes from the Chinese word for clash. On the twelve-animal zodiac wheel, the animals opposite each other clash most directly: Rat and Horse, Ox and Goat, Tiger and Monkey, Rabbit and Rooster, Dragon and Dog, Snake and Pig.

A Pee Chong year is a year whose animal clashes with yours. Thai temples also publish fuller lists each year that include animals in a weaker clash.

How owners use it

In a clash year many people make merit or join a kae chong ceremony at a temple. Some owners also check clashes before taking on a partner, a key hire or a large client, and choose a better start date when there is one.

How the Fortune Intelligence bots use it

The Clash & Compatibility bot checks the birth year of new contacts, hires and partners against yours and flags a clash. It never blocks anything: it holds the note for you to weigh, and can suggest better start dates.

Good to know

This is traditional practice, not a prediction, and not financial, legal or medical advice. Use it as one input next to your own judgement.
