Today is the Chinese New Year<\/a> – also known as Lunar New Year. It’s the Year of the Horse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exact date of the start of the Chinese New Year changes from year to year, as the traditional Lunar calendar doesn\u2019t coincide with the Gregorian calendar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you were born in 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014, 2026 and 2038 \u2014 you\u2019re likely a Horse, according to the Chinese zodiac.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Horses are passionate and romantic, but they need space. They do best with partners who support their independence and keep life exciting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
