2026 Year of the Horse 丙午年 Fengshui DIY Guide

A new year is approaching, the 2026 Year of the Horse 丙午年. Like many other years, the arrival of a new year offers an opportunity for reflection upon one’s endeavors in the year just past, together with assessment and renewal in preparation for the year ahead. Reflection upon the past allows for refinement and improvement. Forward-looking evaluation enables prudent preparations through the knowledge of the 【Feng Shui Annual Nine Stars】, directed toward enhancing auspicious potentials and restraining harmful influences. In practice, this assessment is complemented by careful attention to the 【Annual Afflictions】, namely San Sha, Tai Sui, and Sui Po, which likewise exert a defining influence upon the year.

With a clear understanding of the specific annual influences and the directional placement of these stars and afflictions for 2026, appropriate measures may be applied to moderate malefic tendencies and reinforce benefic effects within the environment.

One important point requires attention. In the application of the Feng Shui Annual Nine Stars, 2026 Year of the Horse commences on 4 February 2026 at 4:03 a.m., corresponding to Li Chun, the Beginning of Spring, as determined by the Solar Calendar. This should not be confused with the Lunar New Year, which is calculated according to the Lunar Calendar.

To support your preparations, I have created the 【2026 Year of the Horse 丙午年 Fengshui DIY Guide】, written in a clear and accessible manner. Those who wish to receive the guide in PDF format may contact me by email.

Year 2025 乙巳年 Year of the Snake Fengshui DIY Guide : Take Ownership of your Destiny

2025 Chinese Lunar New Year falls on the 29th January 2025. Like many other years, the beginning of a new year presents us the opportunity for reflections on our endeavors in the previous year as well as an assessment and rejuvenation for the coming new year. Past reflections give us improvements, forward assessment give us preparations. Preparations for 断舍离 and 趋吉避凶.

Prior to Chinese Lunar New Year, it is customary to conduct a deep cleaning of our house, known as ‘Spring Cleaning’, a tradition ingrained in us for generations. This tradition symbolizes the purging of negative energies and welcoming rejuvenation and renewal of positive energies. But far from simply cleaning our house and all the items, the process of decluttering and reorganizing the items in our house can be essential for a more harmonious positive energies, which in turn can positively impact our lives. Not only items that are old, dirty and damaged have a detrimental effect on our luck and health, items that are placed in inappropriate locations can have that effect on us as well, as this creates incompatible energies between the item and its location. But how do we know what items are unsuitable for each location in our house?

For this, we can make use of 【Qi Men Dun Jia】 (奇门遁甲) principles to know what items are unsuitable for placement in each locations, creating negative energies that impact our lives. This allows us the opportunity to declutter, reorganize and ultimately revitalize our house in a more positive way. This can be an added advantage in our ‘Spring Cleaning’ 断舍离 process, the first step towards ushering the New Year.

Looking forward, the next step is knowledge of the 【Fengshui Annual Nine Stars】 (流年九星). Knowing what their Fengshui influences are on us and where these stars are located for the upcoming year 2025 allows us to take measures for mitigation of the malefic stars and enhancement of the benefic stars; 趋吉避凶. One important point to take note, that is when understanding and using the Fengshui Annual Nine Stars, the year 2025 乙巳年 begins on 3rd Feb 2025, 10:11pm which is 立春, Beginning of Spring, based on the Solar Calendar. Do not be confused with Lunar New Year, which is based on Lunar Calendar.    

For these preparations, I have prepared the【Year 2025 乙巳年 Fengshui DIY Guide】that is simple to understand and follow. Take Ownership of your Destiny!
