Thank goodness for open spaces, because the Horse needs plenty of room to roam! Energetic, good with money and very fond of travel, Horses are the nomads of the Chinese Zodiac, roaming from one place or project to the next. All of this Sign's incessant activity and searching may be to satisfy a deep-rooted desire to fit in. Paradoxically, Horses feel a simultaneous yearning for independence and freedom.

Horses crave love and intimacy, which is a double-edged sword since it often leads them to feel trapped. Love connections tend to come easily to Horses, since they exude the kind of raw sex appeal that is a magnet to others. This Sign tends to come on very strong in the beginning of the relationship, having an almost innate sense of romance and seduction. Horses are seducers in general; check out any A-list party and you're bound to find the Horse in attendance. This Sign possesses a sharp wit and a scintillating presence; it really knows how to work a crowd. Surprisingly, Horses tend to feel a bit inferior to their peers, a misconception that causes them to drift from group to group out of an irrational fear of being exposed as a fraud.

An impatient streak can lead Horses to be less than sensitive to others' needs. These colts would rather take a situation firmly in hand as opposed to waiting for others to weigh in or come to terms with it. The lone wolf inside the Horse can at times push others away, but this also makes this Sign stronger and is a key to its success. Horses are self-reliant and, though they might lose interest fast in a tedious, nine-to-five day job, are willing to do the work necessary to get ahead.

Horses tend not to look much at the big picture; instead they just follow their whims, which can result in a trail of prematurely ended relationships, jobs, projects and so on. This Sign really knows how to motivate others, though, and get a lot accomplished. Once they find some peace within themselves, they can curb their wandering tendencies and learn to appreciate what's in their own backyard.

Take initiative and resist indecisiveness. Efforts exhibited to further your career could be beneficial in the short term, but it's probably best to hold off on long-term projects today. Avoid succumbing to greed during the day of the Dragon. The more generous you can be, the better your luck may fare. It might be prudent to change your diet to achieve better health

It's an excellent time to work on improvements to your home and family life. Don't be too hard on yourself if your plans don't go exactly as you envision. Try to see the big picture instead of being hamstrung by the fine details. You might find more success by investing one hundred percent of your efforts into a single project, rather than investing partial energies in many endeavors.

Focus on required tasks, for today you possess a remarkable sense of determination that could allow you to accomplish anything you set your mind to. Smooth sailing on the home front will feel good, and interaction with family and friends is likely to go well. Reward your successes by partaking in fun activities.
