2007 Chinese Zodiac: Year of the Fire Pig

2007 is the Year of the Fire Pig — a Yin Fire year. The animal sign is the Pig, the twelfth of the 12-animal cycle.

2007 carries the Fire element (Yin Fire). Element is set by the year's heavenly stem and cycles every 10 years, so the full Fire Pig combination returns only once every 60 years.

Those born in 2007, the Year of the Pig, are traditionally described as compassionate, generous, and easy-going. With the Fire element added, passion, energy, and boldness are emphasised.

The Pig is traditionally most compatible with the Rabbit, Goat, Tiger.

Almost — but the Chinese zodiac year starts at Chinese New Year (late January or early February), not January 1. So someone born in early 2007, before that year's Chinese New Year, is actually a Dog (the 2006 sign). If your birthday is in late January or early February, enter your full date of birth in the Age Calculator to confirm your exact sign.
