What does the Horse symbolize in Chinese astrology?
The horse is the Chinese zodiac’s sixth animal. In Chinese tradition, the horse represents power, beauty, and freedom. Horses are high-spirited, lively, and energetic people who were born in the year of the horse. People like them because of their passion and upbeat demeanor. That is why persons born in the year of the horse prefer to be the center of attention and enjoy the companionship of those around them.
Because horses are impatient and have a short temper, their moods can shift fast. Because the horse requires a great deal of freedom and independence, it is difficult for them to adjust to a timetable set by someone else. They have a quick and bright mind, which allows them to spot patterns and predict what you’re thinking before you say it.

Are horses fortunate?
Over the years, we’ve all heard a lot of old wives’ tales and superstitions, including saluting lone magpies, not crossing a black cat’s path, destroying a mirror bringing bad luck, and horseshoes bringing good luck. Here are a few horsey ones that people used to believe and, I’m sure some still believe….
Luck & Good Fortune…
- Horseshoes are seen to be lucky, as previously stated. According to some traditions, they can bring good luck, ward off evil, and even prevent nightmares!
- The shoe from a grey mare’s rear leg is the luckiest of all.
- Hang a horseshoe with the points facing up to keep the good luck in (if you hang it upside down, the luck runs out)
- Talismans formed from a horseshoe nail curved into a circle are also considered lucky!
- It’s bad luck to change a horse’s name.
- Putting a cowboy hat on a bed is considered unlucky.
- Stepping in dung is a sign of good fortune.
- If a horse steps in wolf prints, it will become lame.
- Bringing a horse (particularly a grey) into your home will ward off evil and bring good fortune.
- A horse with an indentation in its neck is thought to be lucky…the indentation is known as a Devil’s thumb print, and the horse is said to be lucky since it is said to have survived a meeting with the Devil!
- When a bride or groom sees a grey horse on their approach to the church, it is seen to be a good omen and a sign of good fortune for their marriage.
‘Good’ horse, or ‘Bad’ horse?…
- Buy the horse with one white foot. Try the horse with two white feet. Be aware of the horse with three white feet. Avoid the horse with four white feet!
- It will be more difficult to teach horses with two whorls on their heads.
- Chestnut mares are erratic and irrational.
- Horses with a Roman nose are obstinate.
- A horse with curling ears is fiery and hot-tempered.
- A horse is only useful if it can roll completely over.
(I can’t say I agree with these because some of the nicest horses I’ve cared after over the years have been roman-nosed chestnut mares or had four white stockings!)
Sicknesses & Cures…
- Copper coins in the water can be used to heal grumpy mares.
- A horse neighing at a house’s door is a bad omen for its occupants; they will grow ill.
- Inhaling the breath of a horse can treat whooping cough.
- Worms can be healed by eating hair from the forelock or horse hair cut into bread and butter.
- Toothaches and snake bites can be relieved by riding a horse or donkey backwards.
- Many years ago, people believed that drinking fresh milk mixed with dried and crushed horse’s chestnuts might cure cancer!
- Horse hair can be used to encircle warts and sarcoids to treat them.
(Perhaps the final one is true if it’s used to cut off the blood supply?)
Protection from Witches & Evil…
In the ‘olden days,’ witches and warding off the Devil seemed to be a major preoccupation…
- Wearing a black stallion’s tail hair as a bracelet will protect you against witches.
- Horse brasses repel witches and reflect the Devil’s glance away from the home and those who wear them.
- Carrying a wooden whip protects your horse from being cursed.
- Ribbons can be used to guard a horse’s tail from witches.
- Witches and evil spirits are repelled by horseshoes placed above a doorway.
What Else…
- If you see horses with their backs to a hedge, it’s going to rain.
- A stallion will be a good sire if he dips his nostrils deep into water.
- Tie a nail to a hair from the mare’s tail and hold it above the mare’s hindquarters; if it swings in a circle, it’s a filly; if it swings back and forth, it’s a colt; and if it doesn’t move, the mare isn’t in foal.
- You should remain silent until you see a white horse if you see a white dog.
- When you see a white horse, make a wish (however white horses are considered a death omen in other cultures!)
- If you geld a stallion without looking, one testicle should be tossed eastward and the other westward, or you’ll end up with a rig, or ‘proud cut’ horse.
So there you have it… some genuinely strange horse-related myths and folklore!
