Do you have a Fire Horse in your Chinese horoscope?
IIf you have a Fire Horse in your Chinese horoscope, particularly as your day of birth; where it usually denotes freely expressing your emotions, strength and confidence. Consequently, your private life and relationships should be both vibrant and successful, especially so, during February, March and the Summer months as well as October. If you find that this is not the case, Feng Shui can help you to better incorporate this balancing influence into your life. However, if you find these times are a highpoint of your year, then contact us for a consultation and we should be able to ensure that you have this feeling permently.
if you were born in a year ending in 6, such as 1996, then you will have Yang Fire in your Chinese horoscope, and if born between 7th June to 7th July, you will have a Horse too. Conversely if you have a 2 as you last birth year number e.g. 1982, then you have a clash which means you will find opportunities for big changes this year, you should also be very lucky financially, although you will probably spend it as soon as you receive it.
Now that you have this information, let us see what the natural trends and tendencies for 2026, based on these Chinese Animal zodiac signs.

You may have the hardest but perhaps the most rewarding year ahead which is due to a clash with the annual Horse sign. Although a clash sounds ominous, it helps us all grow and evolve and in any case we all have them once every 12 days, months and years - how do you think we got to be who we are? The clash this year involves your emotions and the way in which you react with others. It centres around wealth and relationships, which come easily enough, but you may take them for granted leading to arguments and disagreements. You can cure this with the wood element by planning ahead and thinking before you act. If you need help spend time in the east or southeast part of your home or office, or wear green or light blue colours.
