DID YOU KNOW?

Each year in the Chinese zodiac’s 12-year cycle is ruled by a different sign and one of the five elements, with Fire being the element for 2026. Horses are free-spirited, confident and energetic (they don’t like to be bored), but Fire Horses are known to be bolder and more decisive, and are more likely to be trendsetters and trailblazers. The best zodiac matches for the Horse are the Tiger, the Dog and the Goat.

Obverse

Steven Rosati

Inspired by traditional Chinese artforms, the reverse design by artist Simon Ng marks the Year of the Horse (2026) by depicting the Chinese zodiac animal adorned with various iterations of its lucky flower, jasmine, which symbolizes grace, purity and elegance. Undaunted by the tall windblown grass, the energetic Horse trots assertively into a headwind, its flame-like mane and tail flowing in the breeze, while the sun’s rays fill the sky above to represent the Fire element. The reverse includes the word “CANADA”, the traditional Chinese character for “Horse” and the year “2026”. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.

Simon Ng, Artist

“The element of Fire plays a significant role in the overall design of this auspicious Lunar Horse, whose pose strikes a balance between strength and gentle charm. While the thick legs convey the power of a working horse casually trotting into a headwind under a blazing sun, its mane and tail, as well as the tall grass, all mirror flames dancing in the wind, and further emphasize the imagery of Fire. Meanwhile, the decorative flora consists of various iterations of the jasmine flower that symbolizes grace, purity and elegance, while the combination of branches and blooms produces a consistent pattern and texture that’s pleasing to the eye.”
