There are some lucky stars in the path of the Pig this year, but also embedded are some unlucky stars, where it’s a year that the Pig can win, but is unstable. Therefore, the Pig needs to do things honestly and righteously this year and try not to skew too far from reality. The Pig may have desires to achieve a great deal and reach success quickly, but should not try to push it. The Pig may also tend to continually compare him/herself with others, making the Pig unhappy. If the Pig is impulsive and use underhanded means to achieve something, then not only will the Pig not achieve his/her goal, luck will also get worse. Because the Pig’s luck fluctuates this year, the Pig should not go to extreme or take short cuts. Matters must be handled meticulously and the Pig should not be careless. Avoid being greedy and lazy. How could the Pig be successful if he/she is lacking clear goals and is lazy and greedy? This year, the Pig needs to do more, learn more and ask more and by mid year June or July, there may be opportunities. If and when opportunities come and the Pig does not have adequate preparation, then it becomes useless; therefore, at the beginning of the year, the Pig needs to learn more to enforce his/her skills and worth. And once the opportunity comes in mid-year, do not hesitate, or else it may become a missed opportunity. As mentioned before, with the Pig’s luck, once good luck comes, it comes quickly and runs out quickly. Therefore, the key factor in the Pig’s success or failure this year is timing, the ability to grasp opportunity. Now, once good luck runs out, the Pig should not try to rush to make up for it, but rather, be patient and wait until the next opportunity comes.

On the surface, the Pig’s career seems to be not bad, but embedded are problems. Additionally, the Pig has a great deal of work related stress, so he/she needs to know the limits to his/her abilities and be able to use other people’s abilities well to help solve problems. The Pig needs to have good interpersonal relationships with his/her superiors and clients and should avoid any arguments with them; remember, the customer and the boss are always right. If the Pig is able to be flexible in manage these relationships well with clients and colleagues of all levels, be calm and work hard then by midyear, there may be opportunities for a promotion, changing jobs or starting a business. For the entrepreneur Pig, there will seem to be a string of obstacles and problematic competition in the beginning of the year, but if the Pig is able to make changes and consider expanding to other areas rather than being too conservative, and is able to make use of the talents of employees, then by the end of the year, there can be good returns.

The Pig’s financial luck is not too bad this year, but there are no big gains in money, which will tend to come in small amounts. As long as the Pig is not greedy to seek fortune overnight, the year can be considered one of small wealth. And as long as money comes from legitimate means, the money that the Pig earns is what is deserved. The Pig needs to learn to save for a rainy day and to avoid spending frivolously, risky investments and gambling. If the Pig does not manage money well this year, there may be large unforeseen expenses around midyear that the Pig has to deal with.

In terms of relationships this year, there are many opportunities, but the flowers will only bloom, but not fruit is formed. The opportunities will come, but it is unstable, where love is already gone before it has a chance to develop. Relationship luck may seem good, but is actually bad. Heartache from relationships will also affect the Pig’s performance at work. Additionally, the Pig will have a lot of fantasies of love in that when there are opportunities, the Pig doesn’t have enough courage, and when there isn’t, the Pig is always longing for something. If the Pig does not wake up from fantasy, then the Pig will regret it. Therefore, the Pig should not take relationships too seriously this year, as it can directly negatively influence mood and well-being, it can also reduce luck and if too obsessed over a person, then there can be both loss of that person as well as loss of money. The female Pig may encounter a player, and if not careful and fall into a trap and be in an inappropriate relationship (ie. with someone decades older or decades younger), which will lead to loss of that person, money and reputation, as well as the possibility of being impregnated. The single male Pig will easily meet someone abroad and if it is the right person, he should work hard to pursue her and even consider getting married, or else it may become a missed opportunity. The married Pig will have a lot of negative gossip and there is a risk of a third party entering the relationship. The married Pig also should not have physical location separation from his/her partner, or else there may be the problem of extramarital affair, as well as loss of money and reputation.

In terms of health, the Pig may easily have liver, kidney, and circulation problems, so remember not to eat too much spicy and sour foods and remember to drink more water. Do not stay too long in large crowds and heavy traffic areas, as there is a higher risk of flu and sickness.

The young Pig tends to be lazy this year, so be careful of wasting education because if the Pig does not strive to achieve, then he/she will only fall behind. There is also a high risk of the young Pig gaining bad habits like smoking, alcohol and drug abuse.

The elderly Pig may easily have disagreements with children over money, leading to stress and possible cardiovascular incidents like heart attack and stroke. Remember that there is no need to be overly concerned with adult children’s matters as it is often out of your control.
