Chinese New Year 2024 officially begins on February 10th 2024. This date rings in the Year of the Dragon. In Chinese astrology, the Dragon is highly revered. It is a lucky sign with a lot of intelligence and powerful energy.
To allow you to understand the energy of this year more easily, the equivalent sign of the Dragon in the western zodiac is Aries. Therefore, the Dragon is an initiator, forward thinking, full of go-getting energy. The Dragon is daring and fearless. So, that is the over-riding energy of this new Chinese year! Chinese astrology also encapsulates 5 elements, being earth, water, wood, metal and fire.
This is the year of the wood Dragon, so it is slightly calmer than other Dragon years and there is an emphasis on growth and expansion. Previous Dragon years are 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000 and 2012, so you can look back at those years to get a taste of the energy for this 2024 Chinese New Year too. People born in 1964 have a particularly favorable year coming their way as they are Wood Dragons. Now discover what this exciting Year of the Dragon announces for your Chinese Sign!

Pig: Here's what your Chinese Horoscope has in store for you for 2024
Pig
A year of balance
The Pig gets along favourably with the Dragon and the Dragon’s powerful energy will give the Pig an enjoyable year and one that can be more amusing than usual! At times, it may feel like you have had enough of hard work and the daily grind and will be up for enjoyment, socializing and having fun! Just keep everything in the balance, dear Pig, because you might enjoy yourself so much outside of work, that you live only for that, and start paying less attention to your work because of this.
If you are in a relationship this work/social life balance will be important too, or it may cause friction with your significant other. The willingness to be honest and talk openly will pay off well. Single pigs on the other hand, will have plenty of opportunity to meet new and interesting love interests. But remember, this is not a year to take your work for granted. One moment things may be ticking along as usual, and the next, challenges arise that need to be tackled. So, make sure you are on form and concentrating on your work. If you feel the calling to change your job, this is a good year to be able to do so too, particularly in the second half of the year. Financially things look quite stable, as long as you follow the advice above.
This is not a year to make daring investments, but sensible, long term, low risk investments made this year can pay off later.
