Pig
General
2018Your sign of the Pig gets along with the Dog relatively well, but could be better. So, during the year of the earth Dog, you'll be able to bring some of your plans to fruition. Though you may have some setbacks now and again, your innate reliability will pull you through.
Friends and allies of all kinds become more important, as your social circle shrinks a little. Cleaning house with your pals is necessary to keep the energy around you buoyant and positive all year long. In love and money, work and your personal life, your sign is great at bouncing back.
One thing you learn early on this year is that you can always count on yourself. Far from being disempowering, this actually makes you happy and excited about the future. You know you can make it work in the year of the earth Dog and beyond, if you're willing to look within and grow.
Love - Romantic
When it comes to love and romance, Pigs are usually very polite. They don't like it when people are rude, and won't even entertain someone who crosses their invisible lines. During the year of the earth Dog, you're more determined than ever, therefore, to find the right person to make you happy.
Single Pig natives have the lunar eclipse of July 27 to look forward to because it brings so many more new people into your sphere. From parties to nights out and other social gatherings, your calendar is filling up, and you're ready to mingle. But instead of telling everyone who you are right off the bat, send out a little mystery. Dating prospects are interested in who you are as much as who they think you are. Leaving something to the imagination works well to keep you both entranced.
For those already in relationships, March, September, and November are the best months to either make an important new life change or schedule some time away from it all. The Dog energy can be very persistent, so if you feel your partner's trying to dodge an important topic, try to find time to talk about it in a non-threatening way. Chances are, you can both come to an agreement about what to do.
By the end of the year, you've learned so much about how to make yourself happy, but also to consider your partner's needs. Attending to one another in a loving way conquers anything in your path.
Finance - Money
For Pig natives, information is key when thinking about money. Of course, you want to see more of it in your bank account each month, but what will it take to get you there?
Turns out, you're a pretty quick study. Reading up on investment strategies early in the year yields wonderful results by mid-February through the end of March.
The year of the earth Dog asks that you consider your funds as seeds, and use the earth energy to help grow them into dividends and interest. More money can also be gl
Career - Work
Your tenacity as a Pig native makes you formidable when it comes to your career. Nearly any goal you set, you eventually attain through sheer willpower.
During the year of the earth Dog, you have some extra help in growing your career dreams. Setting them early on is important, so grab some paper and write down what you want to achieve in January or February. Then use the energy of the solar eclipse of July 12 to begin bringing illumination to your unique skills. If someone's not giving you your due on the job, make sure higher-ups see that you stay late and get the job done. During the fall months, in particular, someone has their eye on you for a promotion. Asking for an increase in your salary isn't out of line, with all you've done this year. Just pick your moment, and go for it.
Those looking for a new job find success during September and October, when doors open more easily and make it obvious where you should be working. More money is great. But a workplace that's supportive and stress-free is also worth considering. It's good to know you have options now and can make moves accordingly.
Health
When it comes to your health, Pig natives usually like to rely on their consistency. People don't call you one of the more reliable signs of the Chinese zodiac for nothing.
The habits you've taken time to develop have served you well, and this year, you're ready to make even more positive changes. Working out has sometimes been difficult for you. Not that the motivation isn't there. But sometimes doing the same thing day in, day out is boring.
Though the earth Dog rewards slow, steady progress, switching things up from time to time keeps them fresh and exciting. Trying something new, like dancing, ice skating, or joining a local volleyball team gives you options in fitness.
Sleep is another area your sign can benefit from this year. If you're not getting enough, it's time to cut caffeine, go to bed a little earlier, or simply avoid any stimulation such as cell phones and TV at least two hours before.
