During the Ong Mali CNY campaign, Tesco Malaysia introduced the latest horse merchandise soft toy set aptly called Astro Special Mah Li (twin pack). Only 7,000 sets are available and they are exclusively sold at Tesco stores at RM48.88.
So what’s the significance of the White Horse? It represents light, sun, day, vitality, illumination, resurrection, messenger of birth. In the Chinese horoscope calendar, 2014 is the Chinese Green Wooden Horse Year. Chinese love horses for many reasons. The horse provides a good and quick transportation for people before automobiles. It can give people a ride to their destination. Therefore, horse is not only a symbol of traveling, but also a sign of speedy success.
Horses like to compete with others. They pursue their freedom, passion and leadership. Therefore, people will have busy schedules for their goal in the year of Horse. In the Chinese Five Element Horoscope, the Horse is connected to fire, red and heat. Also, it is a social animal and red is also connected to love, therefore the Horse is treated as a Romantic Star in the Chinese Horoscope. The Horse is an intelligent animal. Horses need to be trained to become useful to human. Humans can make a Horse famous. Without a human’s guide, the Horse just a wild animal. It doesn’t know where to go. There is no destination in its life.
I took my Astro Special Mah Li out to my garden so that they could have a canter and literally smell the flowers. May the Year of the Horse bring much happiness and success to everyone!
Happy chinese new year to you too!
Your pair of horses are happily grazing,
In the eternally green and tranquil meadow,
May they remain there in the pastureland,
In everlasting peace and harmony,
And may they always be well fed and prosperous,
In the coming Year of the Horse!
Gong Xi Fa Cai!
Have A Happy and Prosperous Year of the Horse!
