Understanding the basic nature of horses and how they communicate with each other is a vital element to becoming a good horseman. If you understand the core instincts and innate responses horses have to their environment, you will learn to recognize certain behavior, know what it means to you as a rider, and anticipate the next move your horse may make.

The language of horses integrates the usage of his body, in varying degrees to express himself.  One of the most communicative parts of his body are his ears.  They can be suggestive of his future moves. 

There are many different mindsets that you can make out by observing how your horse is using his ears. Are they pinned back just about flat on his neck, indicating anger? If so, he may lunge forward at another horse to intimidate him. Or, are they slightly tilted backward, indicating that he is listening to you or something behind him? 

Are the ears forward, indicating that he is looking ahead and is attentive to his environment?  Or, are they straining forward in fear of something ahead?  If so, be prepared for him to try to bolt! All these positions can suggest what he may do next.  Having an estimation about what to expect will help you become a better rider!
