Year of the Horse

The Horse is one of the Chinese zodiac signs, which recur in a 12-year cycle. In addition to the zodiac signs, Chinese astrology, worldview, and philosophy inherently include five elements: wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. Currently, it is the year of the Fire Horse, which is considered an energetic and highly fast-paced time that can bring unexpected events. People born in the Year of the Horse are believed to be social, cheerful, and energetic individuals who are nonetheless independent and value their freedom.

The Year of the Horse begins on February 17, 2026, and ends on February 5, 2027. The Year of the Horse is preceded by the Year of the Snake and followed by the Year of the Goat.
