Chinese zodiac: Pig

  • Generous
  • Good-natured
  • Hardworking
  • Tolerant
  • Naive
  • Pleasure-loving

The Pig is the last of the twelve years and is associated in Chinese culture with wealth, abundance and comfort; a pig raised at home was considered a sign of prosperity. People born in the Year of the Pig are warm-hearted, generous and tolerant. They know how to enjoy life and value food, friendship and comfort. When they devote time to their work they are diligent, but they do not neglect rest either.

Their trusting nature can make them easy to deceive; they may be slow to notice ill intent. Excessive tolerance, overspending and indulgence are their testing grounds. Their ability to get along with people, their honesty and their generosity win them a wide circle of friends. When they learn to say no, they use their energy more effectively.

Love and relationships

In love the Pig is generous, warm and sincere, devoting itself wholeheartedly to the one it loves. Home life, meals and shared pleasures are part of a relationship to it. Trusting too much can lead to disappointment. With an honest, supportive partner it builds a long and peaceful union. It is compatible with the Rabbit, Goat and Tiger and may experience tension with the Snake and Monkey.

Career

The Pig succeeds in service, education, food, entertainment, healthcare and trade. It is hardworking and gets along well with colleagues; its warm manner strengthens team spirit. It can be too generous with money, so it needs to make a budget and question other people's intentions. In a calm, supportive environment it works creatively and productively.
