Year of the Horse

This year, 2026, the Chinese New Year/Lunar New Year celebrates the Year of the Fire Horse.

The horse is the seventh sign in the Chinese Zodiac chart and is a symbol of independence and forward motion. This year is the year of the fire horse which brings intensity and passion.

 Those born under this sign tend to be people that are hard working and have excellent judgement.


Horses tend to be successful as scientists, adventurers and poets.

 
They are most compatible with the tiger, ram & dog, but should avoid the ox, rat & horse.
