The year of the Tiger is actually not bad for the Pig. There are some lucky starts in the path of the Pig this year where there are people willing to help the Pig and where reputation can be achieved. However, there are also some unlucky stars where amongst the good is the embedded bad. The Pig will tend to be impulsive and ill-tempered, greedy but lacking in practical goals, overly subjective and bases decisions on too much instinct, so that in the end, even if something is good, is turned bad. At the beginning of the year, things go extremely well for the Pig, with many people helping and organizing things for the Pig that the Pig becomes lazy, taking things for granted that this luck will continue, but it doesn't. Nothing lasts forever, as once luck goes away, it will be too late for regret and there is no going back, so don't believe stories about never losing. The Pig must understand that everything happens in cycles; where there is good, there is bad and it will not always be good, nor will it always be bad. Once changes for the worse, there will be unexpected events that the Pig has not prepared for; therefore, when luck is good, the Pig must try his/her best and should not be greedy or be oblivious that he/she is losing. Avoid being caught in gambling, trading stock and currency, nor should the Pig borrow money to make these risky investments, or else after the Fall, when bad luck comes, the Pig will fall in a trap and there is no turning back. Other than good luck and working hard, in order for the Pig to be successful, working relationships between those who are senior to the Pig and those who work under the Pig, have to be harmonious and be on the same team, rather than going at it alone. Therefore, when there are good returns, the Pig must be able to share the credit with his/her colleagues. Remember, when others help you, good things need to be shared, or else when your luck is bad and you need help, they will not help you in times of need. When you lose your friends, your luck will become worse.

In the year 2010, the Pig needs to open-minded and be able to see farther ahead, be bold but meticulous, personally take care of matters, don't be lazy or think that things are troublesome, then amongst the competition, the Pig can achieve reputation which money follows. Don't be impulsive. Don't aim high and reach low. Things need to be carefully planned out in detail, then with ability and the right people to help out carry out the tasks, the path to success can be laid out. The industries suitable for the Pig are related to eating/lifestyle and health, for example medicine, fashion, food, housing, transportation, hospitality, retail, entertainment, beauty, etc. will give good results. The Pig also needs to minds his/her own business, as there tends to be a lot negative gossip, where good intentions may turn bad. If there is disagreement, the one who loses out will be the Pig. Therefore, the Pig should be more generous, humble, agreeable to others and make good friends. It is no use for the Pig to say how great he/she is; it is what good things others say about the Pig that makes the Pig's reputation. Financial luck is actually not bad this year, but the changes tend to be large, making it difficult to grasp. The Pig will tend to fail due to being misled by false people and false opportunities. If there are any investments, it should be dealt with personally. It is not suitable for the Pig to cooperate with others to invest, because there tends to be a lot of negative gossip, which may lead to loss of both money and a friend.

The Pig's relationship luck is not very good this year. There tends to be a lot of arguments and differences in opinions, as well as love without reciprocation (ie. the person you love doesn't love you back, vice versa). There tends to be a lot of fantasies and illusions and fake people. Flowers may blossom, but no fruit forms. The single Pig should not have too high hopes in relationship developing to marriage. The Pig should also be careful of a good friend becoming a third party in the relationship, which will lead to loss of that friendship, as your boyfriend or girlfriend will not choose you. Therefore, the Pig needs to keep in mind that if the old one doesn't leave, a new one won't come. If the Pig is emotionally ready, he/she may meet someone even better, or alternatively, put that energy into career, which can lead to even better returns. The married Pig needs to be aware of the possibility of extramarital affair, which may start as a good, helpful friend turning into love. The female married Pig needs to be especially careful of extramarital affair, as once the affair has ended, she may be left impregnated, leading to more problems for the Pig and her husband.

Health may be a bit problematic this year, though not major illnesses, but small minor ones which seem to drag on for a long time, leading to a lot stress and problems. Illnesses need to be tended to promptly and do not hesitate to seek alternative multiple opinions for health management. Also be careful of dangers related to fire and water, as well as home safety and traffic accidents.
