It's the Year of the Horse and it's set to be a fiery year ahead.
In this episode of China Popcast, we chat with heritage expert Matthew Hu about the origins of the traditional Chinese calendar, what it means for people today and what the horse represents. This is specifically the Year of the Fire Horse, so Matthew helps us unpack why and what this means for 2026. He also brought along some creative Chinese calligraphy done for this year's celebrations. The episode was recorded on Lichun, or the Start of Spring solar term, ahead of Chinese New Year.
