Chinese Astrology Predictions 2008: The Pig

                                                                                         

A new 12-year cycle started at Feb 7, 2008 with the Year of the Rat according to the Chinese calendar. This important cycle (or era) ends at Feb 5, 2019. It is a 12-year period generally ruled by the universal element of Earth. There are also other elements which rule over each of the 12 years. For example Earth rules over the first and the second year of the cycle (2008, 2009) while Metal rules over the third and the fourth year of the cycle (2010, 2011). The year 2008 is also ruled by the sign of the Rat and has a Yang (male) nature. So 2008 is the Yang year of the Earth Rat. What are the predictions for the sign of the Pig for 2008? This is what this article is all about.

Pig rules over 2019 in this 12-year cycle. 2019 is the last year of the era. Each cycle waits for the Pig to make the necessary adjustments, approve final changes and close the cycle before the new one begins. Until then though, there are a lot of things to be done and Pig people should be very patient. Besides, they were the rulers of the year 2007.

2008 is a great year for Pig people to engage in sexual activities. The Rat's compelling and dominating energy will help them with that. It is also a good time to find a loving partner who will understand them and fulfill them. Pig people are not good at making true friends or lovers but when they do they make them for life. This year they will have many chances for new friendships and relationships.

During 2008 Dog people will behave in a very sincere and honest way. This is what they always do. They will use all their strength to every thing they will do. They will never retreat. This is also a good year to learn new things and increase their knowledge on topics they are interested in.

The element of Earth, which rules over 2008 will affect Pig people by making their peaceful nature disappear. They may become hostile and they will be angered easily. Most of them hate fighting and quarrelling and they might have hard times during the year because of the Earth's effects.

The Yang (male) nature of 2008 will not have any significant effects on Pig people but it will make other signs feel somehow uncomfortable with them.

Here are my predictions using the five star system. This has to do with the overall positive energy that the Rat will receive during 2008. One star (*) means less energy than expected, while five stars (*****) mean more energy than expected. Three stars (***) mean equal amount of positive and negative energy which is a balanced situation:
