What does firehorse mean?

I've often been asked what my online name means, it's my chinese astrological sign. Chinese astrology is slightly different from western astrology, I'm by no means an expert in either. In chinese astrology there are 12 years instead of 12 months, each represented by an animal. It is further subdivided by the ancient chinese elements namely fire, water, metal and wood (don't ask me why they considered those 4 things elements). Because of the characteristics described, I chose this name as a warning. Be fair with me and I will be fair with you. Mess with me and I will burn you. What's your animal and what does it mean to you?

My western sign is Aries, and I have about 4 or 5 planets in my chart that are Aries, but they are all right on the Pisces cusp. My Chinese astrological sign is Water Dragon. I think it's interesting that in western astrology I am fire/water and in Chinese astrology I am fire/water.

Every sixty years is the year of the firyhorse the last one was in 1966....So the next one should be in 2026....They have stronger traits like tempers and they are very proud people.......Warning if their tempers flare up stay out of their way......
