Same element
甲 and 乙 share the Wood element, one yang and one yin. You understand each other’s instincts without much explaining, though you may compare yourselves a little. Cheering each other on works better than keeping score.
One yang stem and one yin stem: one tends to push forward and the other tends to read the room, which often fits well.

If you are one of them
If you are Yang Wood and your partner is Yin Wood
In saju, each person is represented by the element of one key character, the top character of their birth day (日干). Both you and your partner are wood, the element of spring, ambition and straightforward honesty. You likely spot each other's potential and cheer it on, like two climbing vines helping each other up a fence. Because you are so similar, you may also mirror each other's stubborn streaks. When you disagree, neither of you finds it easy to bend first. Try taking turns being the one who yields on small things, and say it lightly, such as your call this time. Keeping score fades when both of you trust that the turn will come back around.
