Horse

The most perceptible virtue for those born under the Horse’s sway is the capacity for a great amount of energy and activity, which no doubt agrees with the characteristics of the animal that symbolizes them. In all stages of their life, they need to work and keep active otherwise existence for them loses meaning. Furthermore, Chinese tradition maintains that there is no danger of them getting tired, just like the animal and they gallop through life making them feel safe and happy. The harder the work, the bigger probability of a Horse getting struck by good luck.

Their posture towards life is simple. No roundabouts permitted. Being simple and honest, they owe their popularity to the qualities that uphold them, even holding fast through periods of bad temper. When they get angry, which occurs frequently enough, they exteriorize all their fury but having said that, they hardly ever hold grudges. Everyone knows what to expect from them.

The Horse’s biggest problems are its tendency to flee from responsibility and its lack of perseverance. They leave tasks unfinished and give other people the impression, amongst other things that they are irresponsible. In addition, they sometimes appear too direct in terms of what they say to others and tend to create problems that would not exist if they were more diplomatic and patient.

Generally speaking, Horses are better at succeeding in situations where they would require a lot of effort in only a short space of time. Long-term projects are not favourable.
