They experience the highest highs and then take a blow to the rib cage that destabilizes everything before they are up again — and so on and so forth.

They are too spontaneous for their own good and can be way too sensitive, sometimes combative, if they don’t get their way. 

In spite of that, they have a heart so pure, genuine, and honest that you feel compelled to forgive them their foibles. 

They will worry and they will make mistakes, but are practical and creative.

They could make a million one year and lose the lot the next — one thing is for sure, you will never be bored when a Fire Pig is in town.
