The Fire Horse year is a special double Fire year with Yang Fire in the heavenly stem and also in the Horse. Whereas 2025, the year of the Wood Snake, has Yin Wood in the heavenly stem and Yin Fire in the Snake, 2026 is pure Fire. Visualize Yin Fire in the previous year of the Snake as the small light in the dark, and Yang Fire in the Horse as the bright light of the sun. If the Snake has ignited a spark in the heart, the Horse will stoke the fire within even brighter! This is a year to shine bright, go big, and achieve breakthroughs.
