2026 – Year of the Bing Wu (Fire Horse)
The Bing Wu Year is also known as the Year of the Flame Horse, Fire Horse, Red Horse, or Fiery Horse.
Since 2024, the world has entered the period of the Ninth Purple Cycle, governed by the Li Fire energy. In 2026, both the Heavenly Stem and Earthly Branch are of Yang Fire, making fire energy exceptionally dominant—causing a significant imbalance in the Five Elements.
This year is expected to be anything but calm, with constructive and destructive forces occurring side by side. Excessive fire energy may trigger a range of disasters, including fires, warfare, volcanic eruptions, and more. The overwhelming fire may also clash with the water element, resulting in floods, maritime accidents, or shipwrecks.
Fire energy is fast, intense, and transformative. It often brings about sudden changes, reforms, innovations, upheavals, and rapid development. The financial sector, in particular, is likely to experience major shifts or even crises, such as stock market volatility. I would suggest extra caution for those involved in investment and finance.
On a brighter note, fire also symbolises celebration and joy. This will be a year of flourishing romance and relationships, with many joyful occasions such as weddings and engagements.
Industries related to healthcare, education, and agriculture may face more challenges and reduced profits this year. In contrast, fields related to technology, electronics, and AI—which fall under the fire element—are poised to shine and thrive.
In 2026, individuals whose Bazi (Four Pillars of Destiny) contains the following animals should be extra cautious:
Rat (Zi) – clashes with Tai Sui
Horse (Wu) – directly confronts Tai Sui and may also self-punish
Ox (Chou) – under Tai Sui punishment
Rabbit (Mao) – in conflict with Tai Sui
Those affected are advised to act carefully, avoid unnecessary risks, and take steps to mitigate potential misfortunes or obstacles.
The excess fire energy this year may also lead to increased irritability or impatience. Everyone is encouraged to manage their temper and practice greater tolerance toward others to avoid conflict.
As each person’s Bazi is unique, the influence of this year’s elemental dynamics will differ from individual to individual, depending on whether fire is a favourable or unfavourable element in their chart.
