Year Of The Horse

Today, January 31 is the beginning of Chinese New Year.

Each year corresponds with one of the 12 Chinese zodiac signs and animals. Each sign is believed to influence the personalities of those born in those years.
In 2014, it will be the year of the Horse.
"People born in the Year of the Horse are talented and popular, strong minded, energetic and sociable. They have good communication skills, but sometimes talk too much. They work hard and are good decision makers..."

Horse: 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014





I was born in the year of the Rat. I wonder what will the year of the Horse bring?!

Rat: Born in 2008, 1996, 1984, 1972, 1960, 1948, 1936, 1924





Chinese New Year lasts two weeks and is traditionally a time to honour ancestors and Chinese gods. The centuries-old celebrations end with the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the New Year.






Chinese communities consider Lunar New Year to be the biggest and most important festival, so a huge number of Chinese from across the world go back to their home country to celebrate the New Year. This phenomenon is called the biggest human migration in the world.
