The Pig (also called Boar) is the warm, generous soul of the zodiac, enjoying good food, good company, and the simple pleasures of life. You are honest, kind, and refreshingly free of malice, always ready to help and to assume the best in people. That open trust can make you naive or easily taken advantage of, and you sometimes indulge a little more than is good for you.
