The Chinese Year Of The Horse.
If you were born under the Chinese year sign of the Horse,
you're great fun! Horses are usually strong, handsome people
with bags of energy, natural athletes often drawn to outdoor
sporty activities. Not suited to paperwork, people born under
this sign dislike dealing with detail and need plenty of
exercise to keep alert. Horses need to be the centre of
attention and need to be liked. However, they can be stubborn
and want complete freedom to do as they wish regardless of
other's feelings.
Instinctive and intuitive, Horses care little for other people's
opinions. People born under this sign like to dress up and they
organize great parties. Never dull, likeable and great fun, if
you're going on holiday and want to take a friend, choose a
Horse!
There are twelve Chinese year signs in the Chinese Zodiac.
Unlike in our western astrology, in Chinese astrology each sign
lasts for a year. Legend has it that as Buddha was about to
depart the earth he summoned all the animals to say goodbye.
Only twelve turned up so, to show his appreciation of their
loyalty, he vowed that from then on each year would bear the
name of one of the animals. Chinese astrology is based on the
Lunar Calendar. This means the Chinese New Year does not fall on
the same day each year and can vary by as much as 3 weeks. So
for babies born in late January/early February it is necessary
to consult the charts to determine the correct sign.
