Chemistry measures how much is engaged between two charts — not how easy it is. A high score can mean friction.

Rival
a competitor for the same ground
The Diamond Goat sees a competitor for the same ground. So does The Steel Rat, looking back. A symmetrical reading is rarer than it sounds, and it means the two of you are likely to describe the relationship in the same words — which makes disagreements about it unusually easy to resolve, and misreadings unusually hard to catch.
Goat and Rat rub. This is the quiet kind of friction: nothing dramatic, just a low, persistent mismatch in pace or priority that both of you will find hard to name.
The Diamond Goat brings Earth, which The Steel Rat's day pillar carries none of, and The Steel Rat brings Water, which The Diamond Goat's carries none of. The exchange runs both ways, which tends to hold up longer than a one-directional one — neither of you is only the giver.
Neither day pillar carries Wood and Fire. A shared absence is harder to work with than a mismatch, because there is nobody in the pairing to notice it: these are qualities the two of you will consistently underrate in each other and in yourselves.

Counted across both day pillars. A zero is a quality neither chart carries.
