Ah, the horse. Independent, confident and very quick in both intelligence and other areas. Like horses love running, the horse can get carried away by new ideas and discoveries. This can be a problem, though, when all you would like them to do is sit there and listen to what you have to say. They are good listeners, though, and genuinely care about what is happening with other people.

While the horse displays plenty of energy and outward confidence, you might be surprised to find that the horse is harboring inner demons. Doubts and fears can often plague the horse, which is part of the encouragement for the horse to keep ever going so s/he doesn’t have to focus on those negative things. (The horse often knows s/he can’t truly outrun these things, but it doesn’t stop him/her from trying.)

Horses should also be wary of rats, as it’s said that of all Chinese zodiac relationships, that between the horse and the rat is the worst.

Remember to refer to this post for information about what your element and yin or yang mean in accordance to your sign.
