The horse has always stood as a powerful symbol of strength, freedom, and vitality. The “heavenly horse,” or Tianma (天馬), is said to soar effortlessly through the skies, connecting the realms of heaven and earth. One can imagine its mane streaming through the clouds embodying both grace and determination.
