Combined Western and Chinese Zodiacs
Virgo Pig

Sixth in the sequence of the Western zodiac is Virgo, the great problem-solver. This sign is equivalent to the years around age 40, when the frivolities of youth are put aside in favour of a clear system of organization for the future. Virgos are motivated by coordination, logistics, planning. They tend to be extremely goal-oriented. They are brilliant at saving money and managing their calendars, learning new skills, or setting up environments where everything has a place and can be located when needed. As an Earth sign, Virgos usually focus on physical realities rather than abstract matters, although the Mutable quality of Virgo gives them a keenly analytical, reflective side. At times, Virgos may be too rigid in their need for structure, making them appear inflexible, even domineering. They can also see selective disclosure as key to their schemes, which may breed resentment if others feel left in the dark. Most Virgos, however, have little difficulty applying their awesome problem-solving skills with dedication and generosity. Families and businesses with Virgos in their midst are often among the happiest and most successful in the zodiac.

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.
