The Wood Pig personality
Wood makes the Pig even more sociable and generous. Pigs are known for warmth, sincerity and an appreciation of life’s comforts, and Wood adds kindness, cooperation and idealism. Wood Pigs tend to be friendly, optimistic and eager to bring people together. They are natural hosts and good at persuading others to join a shared plan. Compared with the reserved Metal Pig, they are more open and trusting. Compared with the Earth Pig, they are more idealistic and less focused on security. Their goodwill wins them many friends, though it can make them easy to take advantage of, and they may agree to too many requests. Wood Pigs also enjoy improving the things around them, from gardens to community projects, and they often follow through more than people expect.
