Welcome to your yearly Chinese horoscope, offering insight into how the energy of the Fire Horse will shape your year. Discover what 2026 may bring in love, career, finances, and health, according to your Chinese zodiac sign.
Rat (1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008, 2020)
The fiery energy of 2026 will be perfect for your daring character. Starting from May 11, the day Mars moves into Aries, your bravery and resilience will be at their highest level, and you will feel like conquering work and education. Money will be getting better day by day after Jupiter comes into Cancer on June 2, probably with financial help from the family. The February and August eclipses are times to keep your ego in check to avoid conflicts. In love, giving honest yet gentle messages will be the key. Blood pressure and headaches can be controlled by staying active and getting ample sleep. The retrograde of Saturn around July 27 will silently guide you to review your commitments patiently.
Ox (1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009, 2021)
The year of the Fire Horse will stretch your limits, but in a constructive manner. You will feel prepared to take deliberate action regarding money, investments, and health habits after June 21, when Mars moves into Taurus. It would be wise to avoid property or loans during the June Rahu period. Job changes might come your way after Saturn retrograde at the end of July, prompting you to review your plans. In romance, the little things will create a more peaceful atmosphere than the big ones. Make it a point to enhance your digestive system and eating habits. On August 12, the total solar eclipse will uncover repressed feelings at the place of residence.
Tiger (1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010, 2022)
Your creativity will be ignited in 2026. From August 2, Mars in Gemini will elevate your trust in talking and letting others know your point of view. Use that period to glow. You will have more opportunities to meet new people, but choose your friends carefully. Eclipses in March and August could lead to unexpected changes in your job or your movements, so don’t make hasty choices. In a relationship, taking time to reflect will be needed to be truthful. You will need to balance time spent on screens and mental relaxation. After Jupiter transitions to Ashlesha on August 19, there will be a positive impact on research and writing work.
Rabbit (1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011, 2023)
There will be a lot of emotions this year. Jupiter entering Cancer on June 2 will bring about family enlargement and mending. A move or remodel to your house could happen. Mars will be in Cancer from September 18, and this might make your moods jump, so be careful not to overdo it with your reactions. Your career will get a boost if you take on leading positions. In your relationship, do not just keep quiet; rather, show your feelings. Your health will improve if you drink enough water, eat healthy meals prepared at home, and practice relaxing breathing exercises. The movement of Rahu-Ketu in November will help break free from ancient family patterns.
Dragon (1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012, 2024)
In this Fire Horse year, your natural charm will be at its zenith. On the last day of October, when Jupiter moves into Leo, if your efforts have been steady, the reward will be visibility and promotions coming your way. November 12 will see Mars in Leo, giving you the power of love and the hardest-hitting vibes, so it’s better to channel your energy into workouts or art. You will have travelling opportunities around the middle of the year for business or self-education. There will be a lot of passion in the love affair, but it will also require faithfulness and the giving of time. Be careful with your heart and back. The February eclipses are going to cause a shift in your perception, or even lead to the formation of a new life approach.
Snake (1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013)
Practical growth will be achieved by 2026. Besides, the moment Jupiter enters Cancer, the partnership and letting the word pass around will be the basis for your career objectives. Money matters will improve as a result of patient, organised planning. You will be required to reconsider and make changes to your daily habits and healthcare when Saturn goes retrograde in July. There might be family tensions, but the way of your mind will help. In romance, frank discussions will be more than dramatic shows. A balanced lifestyle will help you manage digestion and skin problems. The lunar eclipse occurring on March 3 will lead you to what is really good for your soul.
Horse (1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014)
In 2026, you’ll have to keep your recognised trademark balance. Eclipses in February, March, and August will probably test your relationships, but it’s best to be fair and honest. Opportunities in the career line would increase once Jupiter moves into Cancer in June, but office politics may call for a composed and tactical approach. Mars will enable you to make your demands known without appearing aggressive. There is a chance that a very special romantic bond will form. In terms of health, the focus should be on the lower back and kidneys, plus the work-rest balance should be observed. From May 17, Saturn in Revati will facilitate deeper spiritual learning or guidance for you.
Goat (1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015)
This year, one will be compelled to discard the old modalities. The transition of Ketu to Magha in late March will be a boost for your spiritual consciousness, perhaps putting an end to some of the not-so-good friendships. From June, Jupiter in Cancer will be a helpful influence for learning, travelling, and building international connections. Eclipses in August might bring up some disputes in relationships; however, speaking the truth will be the means to resolving the conflicts. Treatment programs, water therapy, and self-control will be very beneficial for your body. The node change on November 25 will be a good opportunity for you to free yourself of one major karmic load.
Monkey (1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016)
Your adventurous nature will be tested and rewarded at the same time. Mars will cross over the signs of fire and air, which will make you restless and eager to seek new experiences. Jupiter’s direct motion in March and its entrance into Cancer in June will positively affect shared financial matters, such as insurance or joint ventures. Get your taxes and legal matters organised, and do not let them pile up. After Jupiter’s movement in October, love will flourish and could lead to marriage. Prevent ailments in your hips, thighs, and liver by practising daily exercise and eating a healthy diet. January with Mars in Capricorn is the right time to stabilise your great ideas.
Rooster (1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005, 2017)
The year of the Fire Horse will put a spotlight on your duties. Mars in Capricorn this January will be a powerful force for good in terms of your work ethic, and you will get important projects off the ground early. As Saturn moves, which will be particularly felt from July, personal and professional relationships will be reassessed. Be sure to cut loose those connections that have no future. Jupiter in Cancer from June will be a major factor in strengthening contracts and partnerships, so all agreements should be in the spotlight for careful review. The condition of your bones, joints, and teeth will require some attention. Your potential of being a leader will greatly increase after November 25, when Rahu moves into Capricorn.
Dog (1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, 2018)
2026, without a doubt, will be the year of full service and cutting-edge innovation. From February 23, Mars in Aquarius shall drive you to implement your previous projects, mainly in the areas of technology, community affairs, and collaborations. Jupiter in Cancer, starting in June, will bring you to the point of work-life balance and job security, depending on your consistency. Your group of friends might change after the August eclipses. From an emotional point of view, you might be on the edge, but the truth talks will bring the relationship back to life. Support your blood flow and nerve health by practising yoga or moving regularly. Saturn’s reversal from July 27 will change the way you think about money.
Pig (1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007, 2019)
Keep the dreams and the reality in balance. The planet Jupiter will return to direct motion in March and then enter the sign of Cancer in June, opening new opportunities for creativity, love, and study. All the above activities will be like the sun shining on the passion project or artistic learning. Starting in April, Mars in Pisces may give energy but also be confusing; hence, please pay attention to emotional and substance triggers. Breakthroughs will require clear limits in relationships. Your feet, immunity, and sleep will need proper consideration. The shift of the nodes in November will be your ally in the battle against a long-standing addiction or a habit.
