What does the Year of the Horse mean for you?
Today, a day after the New Moon in the sign of Aquarius, we enter the Year of the Horse. No matter which of the 12 Chinese year signs your birthday falls under, the energies of this Horse year will have its effect on you. The chart below shows the dates for those born in a Horse Year. (As the Chinese year starts each year on the day after the New Moon in the sign of Aquarius, it is important to check the precise dates).
In Chinese tradition, the horse is a heroic figure as it carried them to success in war over the centuries. In our own language we say ‘horse power’ when we speak of speed and strength, and it has been our helpful companion in tilling the fields, carrying loads and helping us travel great distances. The Year of the Horse is seen as bringing good fortune to those who are willing to take a chance and work hard at achieving a goal. However, there is a great difference between a stallion and a draught horse. So there is the possibility of upheavals in the stock markets and people in high places might find themselves taking a tumble!
This will be a swift-moving year and Arians should have enough fire to help them break through barriers — just don’t let pride trip you up! Tempers can go up and down and some tact and diplomacy will be required to get the best outcome,.
Taurean Horses such as American film-maker and political activist, Michael Moore, will have the wherewithal to delve deeply into some secrets others would prefer remain hidden. Just like the draught horse, they’ll stick at the job until they get satisfaction.

The energies around this year might not suit all Cancerians. There might be too much going on and people born under this sign (such as Harrison Ford), would prefer to stay a little more in the shadows.

Scorpion Horses such as chef Gordon Ramsay can see the finer details and give good advice, yet are often blind to their own shortcomings. This year it’s important to do some self-analysis to understand your own motivations.

These Air Signs enjoy the speed and challenge of Horse years though they might be wondering which way is up! Take things one at a time and focus on the finishing post rather than what’s behind you.
Even if you’d prefer to sit back and dream, use that Horse energy to put your plans into action. It can be a time of great creativity, so Piscean Horses such as Phil Coulter should do well this year.
