The personality of the Pig in Chinese astrology<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pleasure-lovers to the core, sensual Pigs (or Boars) know how to have fun. They love indulging in the good life, and at times, go too far into excess. But that\u2019s a Pig: over the top and not afraid of it. Although they enjoy luxury, Pigs have more of a \u201cnew money\u201d approach to it, and can err on the side of tacky. They know how to laugh at themselves, and could care less, since they\u2019re usually laughing all the way to the bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Provocative Pigs enjoy power, and gladly stir up controversy, like Tupac Shakur, Hillary Clinton and Simon Cowell. Showy Pigs love to flaunt their status, and can throw a good insult at their foes. At times, greed can be an issue for this sign. Their desires easily get the best of them. Most Pigs can benefit from a little restraint and discipline. And they\u2019re best off incorporating it themselves, rather than having the law or life impose limits on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The Pig is ruled by the planet Pluto<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Pig is ruled by the planet Pluto<\/a>, which rules power, intensity and the underworld. Pigs are often either wealthy or around people of wealth and prestige. Like Pluto’s extremes, Pigs enjoy the indulgence of the high life but can also roll around in the mud. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Western astrology, Pluto is associated with Scorpio<\/a>, making this the zodiac sign complement to the Boar. Scorpio is a similarly calculating sign that can be strategic at best and crafty, even criminal, at its worst. Forever looking for a peak sensory experience, Scorpio energy is as intense as the Pig’s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
