Combined Western and Chinese Zodiacs
Scorpio Pig

The eighth Western sign, Scorpio, symbolizes late middle-age in a human lifetime, around the mid-50s. Often this is the time of a human's greatest impact, when they ascend to leadership or dominance, and perform at the height of their intellectual and social powers. Scorpio thus represents great potency as a zodiac sign. These are determined people: charismatic, demanding, highly sexual, hilarious, explosive. They have a profound sensitivity to the full spectrum of existence, from tragedy to ecstasy. Scorpio's element, Water, is always associated with variation, and the Fixed modality of Scorpio brings the forceful potential of Water into sharp focus. Thus, while Scorpios may fulfil many destinies, they are always likely to bring unbridled intensity to their endeavors. For long term security, it is vital for Scorpios to turn their passions outward and allow others to benefit from their depth of vision, rather than suffering under the weight of their talents and perception alone.

The final animal of the Eastern zodiac is the generous, compassionate Pig. These caring souls are among the most benevolent under the stars. They make trustworthy friends, and will not hesitate to share all they have with their loved ones, as well as with the world at large. It is true that Pig year natives sometimes appear naive. Their faith in others can leave them vulnerable to manipulation or abuse, which may cause them to surrender temporarily to self-sabotage, laziness or anger. But rest assured, this sign is unlikely to brood for long! For one thing, these folk are extraordinarily capable under pressure, the very best of allies in any time of need. What's more, when they find a true calling, they are capable of tireless work, exemplary commitment, and show-stopping feats of skill. Last but not least, perhaps due to their selfless kindness and pure motives, in the long run people born in the year of the Pig are apt to attract the abundant good fortune they so richly deserve.
