Packhorse, racehorse, carthorse, charger, pony. Which kind of horse are you? 

Maybe you’re all of the above. Whatever the case, it's something to think about because this Lunar New Year is the year of the Horse. The Fire Horse, to be precise. 

And what does this horse year symbolise? Let us count the ways: 

• Action and Movement: The Horse is a "get-up-and-go" sign, symbolising the desire to break free from stagnation, move forward, and take risks. 

• Independence and Freedom: Known for a free spirit and a love for travel and adventure. 

• Confidence and Strength: Represents a dominant, energetic, and charismatic personality that can handle challenges with speed and efficiency. 

• Success and Ambition: The Horse represents driving towards goals and achieving success through hard work and determination.

• The "Fire" Element: As the fixed element for the horse is Fire, a Fire Horse year (like 2026) intensifies these traits, adding passion, creativity, and intense, sometimes unpredictable, energy to the year. 

And by the way, the colour red is themost auspicious color for the Lunar New Year, symbolizing good fortune, happiness, prosperity, and joy.

It’s used to ward off evil spirits and the mythical beast 'Nian', representing fire and energy. Common traditions include wearing red clothes, hanging red lanterns, and gifting money in red envelopes (hongbao).

So let’s get to it, Fire Horse Year celebrations start now!
