The tables
Why the pair is rated this way
The Rabbit and the Rooster sit directly opposite each other on the circle of twelve, which makes them a clash pair (沖). 卯 faces 酉 across the wheel, spring against autumn, and the classical reading is strong movement between them rather than stillness.
The Rooster is a metal sign and the Rabbit a wood sign. In the controlling cycle metal cuts wood, so the Rooster is read as the one who sets limits and the Rabbit as the one who pushes against them.
The Rabbit rules the spring month that starts around Mar 6 and the hours from 5 am to 7 am; the Rooster rules the autumn month that starts around Sep 8 and the hours from 5 pm to 7 pm.
For comparison, the Rabbit's harmony partner is the Dog and its trine partners are the Pig and the Goat; the Rooster's harmony partner is the Dragon and its trine partners are the Snake and the Ox.
Reading
In love, friendship and work
Traditionally the Rabbit is gentle, tactful and elegant, and the Rooster is observant, hard-working and frank. The Rabbit tends to bring kindness and calm and look for a peaceful home; the Rooster tends to bring honesty and order and look for appreciation.
In love, a clash pair is the classic opposites-attract match: a strong pull and strong friction, read as movement and change rather than as a bad sign.
As friends or co-workers they tend to keep each other in check, which can sharpen the work as long as neither tries to run the other.

Your pair
Check two birth years
A zodiac year starts in late January or February, not on January 1: Chinese New Year calendars switch at Lunar New Year, and saju switches at Lichun, around February 4. If you were born in January or early February, you may belong to the year before.
Beyond the birth year
On Bias Match the animal that counts most is not the birth year but the day branch, the animal in each person's day pillar. If two people's day branches are Rabbit (卯) and Rooster (酉), the compatibility calculator scores that check as a minus, next to five other checks.
The text is fixed sentence templates filled in with the classical relation tables built into the Bias Match engine; no AI model generates or rewrites it. For entertainment only: the zodiac describes old patterns, not what will happen between two people.
