As per the age old prodigy, long time ago Monarch of Heavens, while rejoicing during his birthday, had invited all the animals for a dinner. As the party continued, the King asked all the animals in attendance to take part in a race for entertainment. The King said that he would allocate each animal a place on the pathway to Heaven, according to the position they got at the race. The grand prize would be that the champion would have its name allocated to the Chinese calendar and there could be just 12 winners.

All animals who heard about the grand award wanted in their hearts to attain an eternal place in the Chinese calendar. Looking forward to the race the next day morning, two close friends, the rat and the cat determined to begin the race together before anyone else could. The morning of the race conversely, the rat broke its pledge and went off without waking up the cat.

The rat then came to a river and since it would have taken a long time to cross it, it wickedly dodged the ox into hauling it across with flattery and kind words. As soon as the ox reached land, the mouse hopped off its back and ran rapidly to the palace of the King where he was affirmed the first victor of the race.

The ox came next followed by the tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog and the pig and the rat became the first of the Chinese calendar. The cat was unsuccessful in making it as it dozed on waiting for the mouse. Ever since that episode, the cat would jump on a mouse whenever it would see it.

Pig - The Most Compatible Sign

You'll observe that out of all of the signs, the Pig sign seems to be well-matched with most signs. The reason behind this is that Pig is a very generous sign. The pig sign resembles faithfulness and is very tolerant of others and life in general, making the person born under this signifies someone who can effortlessly get along with most people. There is no feeling of envy or competition in the pig and the ego doesn't affect a pig's heart either. This deficiency of forcefulness on the other hand can turn the pig into a rug if matched with the wrong sign. There's also a propensity to being rather inexperienced and defenseless to those who would take benefit of the pig's good nature.
