You have the EXTENDED_GLOB option set, in which ^ is a special
character.

If you don't need it, simply remove it from the start up file where it's
turned on or add "unsetopt EXTENDED_GLOB" after whatever code is setting
it.

If you do need EXTENDED_GLOB for other purposes but don't need that
particular syntax, and you have the latest version of zsh, you can turn
off that pattern character,

disable -p '^'
