Pig: A year favorable for further education. Seize the time to learn the knowledge you need most; it will surely be put to good use this year and earn you respect and admiration. Avoid being complacent or self-satisfied. Regardless of how advanced your expertise is, updating your knowledge is essential. Not advancing is equivalent to regressing. This year, you can also make some investments, but avoid a gambler's mentality. Healthwise, pay attention to liver and gallbladder issues. Following a routine of early to bed and early to rise will be beneficial for your health.
