The Five Elements in Pig Years

Chinese zodiac tradition pairs each year animal with one of five elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, or Water. The animal repeats every 12 years, while the animal-element combination repeats every 60 years. The table below shows the Pig year combinations in our calendar range.

These are traditional cultural classifications, not a personality or life-outcome assessment.

Not always. The Chinese zodiac year begins on Chinese New Year, not January 1. Someone born before that date belongs to the previous zodiac animal.
