HONG KONG (AP) - The Year of the Pig starts Sunday and Chinese fortune-tellers say it will be a good time to have a baby but also warn there will be an upsurge in epidemics, disasters and violent conflicts around the world.

"The Year of the Pig will not be very peaceful," said Raymond Lo, a feng shui master in Hong Kong.

Pig years can be turbulent because they are dominated by fire and water - two of the five elements Chinese mystics maintain are the basis of the universe, Lo said. Since fire and water are conflicting elements, they tend to whip up trouble, he said.

"Fire sitting on water is a symbol of conflict and skirmish. We'll also see more fire disasters and bombings," he said.
