The sign
The Chinese sign of H&M: Pig
Founding on Oct 4, 1947, in the year of the Pig in the Chinese calendar. On Molino, affinity is measured sign against sign: yours, according to your date of birth, against that of H&M.
- Same sign: Pig
- You resonate most with H&M if you were born between Feb 4, 1935 and Jan 23, 1936; Jan 22, 1947 and Feb 9, 1948; Feb 8, 1959 and Jan 27, 1960; Jan 27, 1971 and Feb 14, 1972; Feb 13, 1983 and Feb 1, 1984; Jan 31, 1995 and Feb 18, 1996; Feb 18, 2007 and Feb 6, 2008 or Feb 5, 2019 and Jan 24, 2020.
- Its two friends (三合 San He): Cat y Goat
- It also resonates with people born in years of the Cat or Goat: Cat, 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011; Goat, 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015.
- Its enemy (六冲 Liu Chong): Snake
- The opposite energy. If you were born in a year of the Snake (1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013), the one with H&M is the relationship best avoided.
The Chinese year starts between January 21 and February 21: if you were born in those weeks, check the exact range on your sign's page.

Keep in mind
Affinity is a symbolic reading from the Chinese zodiac tradition, not a measurement: it compares the sign of the year you were born with that of each entry's year of origin.
