They are careful and caring, obliging, and chivalrous. Put your trust in them, and they will never let you down. The Pigs simply want to do everything right. The Pigs are born to give, to yield and to serve, they constantly sacrifice their own happiness and comfort for the sake of somebody else. Frankly speaking, most people take advantage of this Pig nature. Also, not only are Pigs easy to fool, they like it that way too. No matter how old they get, the Pigs still only see and believe that all men and women are basically good. They have a strong sense that the world is dangerous and full of traps, and they prefer to stay out of public attention and behind the front lines.

Lifestyle: The Pigs are born with an excellent taste for style in everything. The Pigs love food and snacks. They often over-eat, but they eat with good taste. They like to stay home, especially fond of keeping their home comfortable and elegant. In fashion, the pigs are imaginative and aesthetic, but they are also conservative, and prefer to wait for others to try out new trends before adopting them themselves.

Emotions: The Pigs are warm and attached to others, feeling deeply, despite a tendency toward reserve, especially in public. They don't say much - but when they do decide to speak suddenly, nothing can stop them until they run out of subjects. Like the Monkey, the Pig is intellectual - a character with a great thirst for knowledge.

Career: With patience and intelligence, the Pigs are open to a wide range of professions. They may be artists, designers, educators, geologists, lawyers, doctors, scientists, technicians, business managers.

Love: The pigs are usually warm and romantic lovers, but unlikely to fall in love blindly. They may back off from a relationship that seems to be becoming too intense, withdrawing into contemplation. The Pigs are splendid companions. If you have a lifetime Pig lover, don't think that your worries are over. The Pigs are loyal, faithful, patient, tolerant, and giving, but they do have limits. In order to keep your relationship, remember, never try to force too many opinions on a Pig.
