The Boar

The Boar is the 12th and last sign in the Eastern zodiac. Japan calls this sign the Boar while the Chinese call it the Pig.

The Boar stands for wealth, family and prosperity, happiness and good luck. Boars are considered `jewels'' of the Eastern zodiac as they are honest, upright and thus very popular.

Boars are open, straight forward, and simple. They do not know how to be devious or underhanded but are frank, honest and trustworthy. They take initiative, are diligent, calm, understanding and gallant.

Boars are tolerant and avoids disputes. They are peace-loving, enjoy the good things in life but are not over-indulgent.

Unfortunately, due to the trusting nature of the Boar, they are easily swindled. They are willful and obstinate, often makes mistakes and have poor arguments. Materialistic but self-sacrificing.
