The tables
Why the pair is rated this way
The Horse and the Pig are five steps apart on the circle of twelve, one short of facing each other. They are not a harmony, a trine, a clash or a harm pair, so the classical tables call the pair neutral: nothing special pulls them together or apart.
The Pig is a water sign and the Horse a fire sign. In the controlling cycle water puts out fire, so the Pig is read as the one who sets limits and the Horse as the one who pushes against them.
The Horse rules the summer month that starts around Jun 6 and the hours from 11 am to 1 pm; the Pig rules the winter month that starts around Nov 7 and the hours from 9 pm to 11 pm.
For comparison, the Horse's harmony partner is the Goat and its trine partners are the Tiger and the Dog; the Pig's harmony partner is the Tiger and its trine partners are the Rabbit and the Goat.
Reading
In love, friendship and work
Traditionally the Horse is energetic, sociable and independent, and the Pig is generous, easygoing and sincere. The Horse tends to bring enthusiasm and look for freedom; the Pig tends to bring warmth and look for good company.
In love, the zodiac neither helps nor blocks this pair, so the rest of each chart, and the two people, decide how it goes.
As friends or co-workers they tend to keep each other in check, which can sharpen the work as long as neither tries to run the other.

Your pair
Check two birth years
A zodiac year starts in late January or February, not on January 1: Chinese New Year calendars switch at Lunar New Year, and saju switches at Lichun, around February 4. If you were born in January or early February, you may belong to the year before.
Beyond the birth year
On Bias Match the animal that counts most is not the birth year but the day branch, the animal in each person's day pillar. If two people's day branches are Horse (午) and Pig (亥), the compatibility calculator scores that check as zero, neither plus nor minus, next to five other checks.
The text is fixed sentence templates filled in with the classical relation tables built into the Bias Match engine; no AI model generates or rewrites it. For entertainment only: the zodiac describes old patterns, not what will happen between two people.
