2014YEAR OF THE HORSE

DID YOU KNOW?Famous horses include

Sir Paul McCartney, Harrison Ford, Aretha Franklin, Sir Sean Connery,

Mike Tyson, Neil Armstrong and John Travolta.

After the success of the Year of the Snake, Liverpool’s Chinatown is galloping towards the Year of the Horse celebrations that commence on Sunday 2nd February 2014.

The 2014 Kuei Szu year welcomes the seventh animal sign of the Chinese Zodiac – the active, energetic and animated horse. With a positive attitude to life, horses tend to be pleasant, amiable and easy going and their friendly nature means they are often popular with a large group of friends. With a highly animated personality and a talent for new ideas, horses can often take centre stage as they enjoy entertaining an audience. However, although gifted with a silver tongue, sharp minded and fashionable horses should be careful when taking on heavy responsibility or pressure as this can make them weak.

People born in the Year of the Horse are easy to get along with and often put their peers at ease. As such, horses will often work in management roles; they are decision makers and leaders. He or she may be a journalist, translator, performer, tour operator or bartender.

To celebrate the Year of the Horse, Culture Liverpool, Liverpool Chinese Community groups and other organisations have arranged a series of arts and cultural events from Saturday 1st February, with the main celebration taking place on Sunday 2nd February.

As always, the street festivities will be fun-filled, with plenty of activities for children and adults to enjoy, including:

在中國的十二生肖中﹐馬排行第七位。 2014年是積极﹑充滿活力和生氣蓬勃的馬年。屬馬的人擁有積極的生活態度﹐他們是愉快﹑親切和隨和的﹐也因為他們天賦的友好性格令他們非常受歡迎。 屬馬的人同時也具有生氣勃勃的個性和新穎的思路﹐往往能站在舞台的中央娛樂觀眾。 然而﹐雖然屬馬的人天生具有一副能說會道﹑頭腦銳利和時尚的天賦﹐當面對重大責任或壓力時﹐亦要小心調理好自己的心態去解壓。

出生在馬年的人是很容易與人相處﹐ 並經常會把他人的事放心上。 因此屬馬的人經常會工作在管理方面， 他們是決策者和領導者。 他可能是一名記者﹑翻譯家﹑表演家﹑旅游經營者或從事酒的行業。
