缘分How the Tiger and the Pig get along

Tiger and Pig are secret friends. The Tiger's courage protects the Pig, and the Pig's warmth softens the Tiger. Pigs forgive the Tiger's impulsive moments more easily than almost anyone. Six Harmony pairs are the closest one-to-one bond in Chinese astrology, and tradition sees these two as natural partners in love, friendship and work.

The Tiger brings courage and big energy and needs freedom and respect. The Pig brings warmth and generosity and needs appreciation and comfort.

五行Element match

The Pig carries Water and the Tiger carries Wood. Water feeds Wood in the generating cycle, so the Pig tends to be the supporter and giver, and the Tiger the one who flourishes with that support.

爱情Love and marriage

In love this is one of the most supportive pairings in the zodiac, with an easy sense of being on the same side. Tigers love passionately and openly. They want a partner who respects their independence and matches their energy, and they are fiercely loyal once committed. Pigs are affectionate, giving partners who love comfort and closeness. They forgive easily and stay loyal, and they need a partner who appreciates their warmth and does not take advantage of it.

事业Friendship and work

At work they cover each other's gaps and make a quietly effective team. Tigers thrive in leadership, entrepreneurship, the military and emergency services, sports, activism and any role that needs courage and initiative. Pigs thrive in hospitality, food, the arts, charity work, healthcare, customer service and any role where warmth and generosity count.
