Pig Chinese Horoscope

By the time you move into the new week, the nostalgic and reflective month of the Dog has been underway for six days, time enough to get a feel for its influence, but still early enough in the month long wind down of your current personal 12 month lunar cycle that you don't have to rush into anything. For the Pig, the month of the Dog brings you to the final month of your current 12 month lunar cycle, with a chance to reflect on and learn from the journey this has taken you on, as you close old doors and prepare to move on. When the month of the Dog ends in three weeks, this will usher in the month of the Pig and with it, a new personal 12 month lunar cycle, making this a month that might be about closing old doors, but in preparation for opening new doors.
Year of the Snake
Jan 29, 2025 - Feb 17, 2026
There is something about the Snake that the Pig finds captivating, not sure whether to run away and hide or stay and try and figure out what’s going on. The Snake Year by its very nature is not going to give up its secrets too easily, with a lot of things not what they appear at first glance. While as a Pig you have a sixth sense and can usually get an intuitive read on most things, situations and people, this will be enhanced even more during the Year of the Snake, making you an especially good judge of others and a bit of a human lie detector, naturally sensing when others aren’t being authentic.

You’ll shy away from subterfuge, with little tolerance for people you don’t feel are being upfront or for game playing. If it feels like hard work, that you must put all your emotional resources and energy into trying to figure something or someone out, eventually it won’t be worth the effort. This will see you gravitate to people, situations and relationships that aren’t hard work and where what you see is what you get. This could see some friendships and relationships drop away, with those that remain strengthening.

Both your personal and professional relationships will become more important during the Year of the Snake, but it is also likely to be a defining relationship year, where things could either go one way or the other and won’t remain sitting on the fence. The ‘travel star’ is also present this year, indicating a busy year on the work front and that you could be travelling for work, working out of town or a lot happening on the work front, indicating a busy year. At work avoid petty office politics like the plague. You’ll be using a lot of brain power this year, which could zap your energy and impact your health if you don’t replace this with healthy nutrients and ways to relax your mind and unwind. Time management is essential, as is finding a balance between work and play.

About the Pig
The Pig is self-sacrificing, sincere and merry. They may come across cynical and brash in the beginning, but underneath the tough exterior is a perfectly softhearted and decent soul.

A Pig is noble and strong. They make great friends, although not always easy friends. Pigs expect their own generosity to be reciprocated equally by friends or they may quickly end the relationship. They also possess a reckless streak that can make them difficult to handle.

Pigs are noble and chivalrous people who are compassionate, diligent, generous, and fun to be with. They maintain lifelong friendships, yet even if they marry someone from their ideal partners, the relationships are likely to be rocky.

Despite the fact that they are good-humored, sociable and cheerful, tact is not one of the Pig's best virtues. They do not fare well in diplomatic careers. A Pig's emotional temperature is easily raised. They have strong sexual desires and physical love is very important to them. Pigs make loyal and loving partners.
