Branches: 子 and 未
Harm (害)Friction
子 and 未 form a harm. It is traditionally read as misunderstandings between people who are close. Saying things plainly tends to help.
Wonjin (怨嗔)Friction
In Korean saju, 子 and 未 are also an old-grudge pair: a mild, on-and-off irritation where small things sting. Korean compatibility readings check it often; it is one mark among many.
Elements: Water and Earth
Earth controls Water in the controlling cycle. The Goat side tends to set the frame and the Rat side tends to feel it. Read gently it is structure, read harshly it is pressure. Agreeing who decides what usually helps.
子 is Yang and 未 is Yin: one of each.
