Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year – 31st January 2014, it’s the year of the horse. We hope the following year will bring you all great fortune. Seeing as we sell a lot of equine goods, we’d like to think we’ll also have a great year!

The Horse is the seventh of all zodiac animals. According to one myth, the Jade Emperor said the order would be decided by the order in which they arrived to his party. The Horse had to pass a cemetery on his way, but he was too scared. He hesitated for the longest time before running past it with his eyes closed. After he overcame that obstacle, he went at full speed and managed to arrive seventh.
