Compatibility / Tiger and Pig

Tiger and Pig compatibility

Closest match

The Pig is also called the Boar.

Tiger and Pig are one of the six harmonies, and a warm one. The Tiger brings courage and drive; the Pig brings generosity, patience and a knack for making the Tiger feel at home. The Pig softens the Tiger, and the Tiger gives the Pig a push.

These two signs form one of the six harmonies, the closest one-to-one pairings in the traditional zodiac. Each tends to supply what the other lacks, so the relationship often feels easy from the start and gets stronger with time. The usual advice is simple: enjoy it, and do not take the ease for granted.

In love

The Pig is one of the few signs that can calm a Tiger without caging it. The Tiger, in turn, protects and champions the Pig. Arguments are rare and usually about pace: the Tiger wants to act now, the Pig wants one more quiet evening first.

As friends

The Tiger starts the plan and the Pig makes sure everyone enjoys it. Easy, generous and forgiving on both sides.

At work

A good leader-and-anchor combination. The Tiger takes the risks and the Pig keeps relationships intact behind the scenes. The Pig should speak up early when a Tiger idea looks too bold, because the Tiger will listen to this sign.

One tip for this pair
