“I learned long ago, never to wrestle with a pig. You get dirty, and besides, the pig likes it.” – George Bernard Shaw
At a party recently, someone asked me about the Snake vs Pig clash this year. So I said, oh, well it’s a technical clash. Of course, that means nothing to the lay person. So on the spot, I thought up of this explanation.
The Snake sees the Pig. Both think they can get each other. Not that the Pig WANTS to eat the Snake. But the Snake, whilst he wants to eat the Pig (and no, we are not talking about an Amazon python or anaconda – just your regular size snake), the size of the pig (and I mean PIG) is obviously intimidating. So the Snake HISSES intimidatingly and the Pig SNORTS and dares the Snake to come and get some.
And on it goes. Hiss. Snort. Hiss. Snort.
And in the end, neither Snake nor Pig actually does anything because they both realise, that neither can actually get the other. (as I said, mini pigs and super snakes don’t feature in this parable).
Which is why the Snake x Pig clash is all noise, lots of drama, but nothing really actually happens.
For fun I went to Youtube and googled Snake eats Pig/Pig vs Snake and aside from a bunch of videos where pythons eat small pigs or pythons eat mini dead pigs, i never found a live example of a live pig vs a live snake.
That, is the meaning, indirectly and in layman’s terms, of technical clash in the instant of Pig vs Snake.
Hi Bazi Queen
Based on your posting then does that mean that we shouldn’t be too concerned about the Snake-Pig clash? I am Gui Hai and my boyfriend is Ding Si so we needn’t worry based on this factor?

I don’t provide personalised advice on my blog but you should be aware that whilst Snake-Pig is a technical clash, it does not mean there is no clash.
