Horse (马 – Mǎ)**
The Horse represents freedom, energy, and adventure. Those born under this sign are independent spirits, always seeking new experiences and challenges. They are charismatic and thrive in social settings, drawing people in with their enthusiasm. Their natural confidence and determination make them excellent leaders, capable of inspiring others with their vision and drive.

Horses are known for their determination and ambition, but they can also be restless, constantly searching for the next big opportunity. They dislike feeling confined and prefer environments that allow them to explore and innovate. Their love for movement and excitement makes them natural explorers, excelling in careers that involve travel, creativity, or dynamic problem-solving.

In relationships, Horses are passionate and expressive, but they may struggle with commitment if they feel restricted. They seek partners who can match their energy and share their love for adventure. Their ability to bring excitement and joy to those around them makes them unforgettable companions, always ready to embark on the next great journey.

Each Chinese Zodiac sign has a fixed traditional element, but the Five Elements cycle every 60 years, meaning your birth year determines an additional elemental influence. This second element—Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, or Water—shapes personality traits, fortune, and destiny, adding unique characteristics to each individual within the same Zodiac sign. Understanding both elements offers a deeper insight into one’s astrological profile.
