The red comes from 丁, a candle. Small flame, long night — you're the one who keeps it lit. The pig (亥): warm and generous — your door is always open. Leo is fire: you don't hide your heart, and you shine when you stand in front.

When the Red Pig fights

When you fightYou swallow your words so you won't hurt them.There's something you want to say, but their face makes you waver.

How you're misreadPeople say you can't make up your mind.You're looking for the way where no one gets hurt.

Your strength in a conflictYou light the way, quietly.At the end of a dark argument, you're the one who lights a small lamp.

What Leo addsYour pride gets hurt first.Leo fire makes your pride bigger. It isn't losing — it's being big enough to hold them.

One small stepDon't swallow it — say it to the end, even softly.
