"In some Asian cultures, the Lunar New Year is considered to be a sacred reset. "Think of it as cosmic spring cleaning. We sweep out stagnant energy to make room for growth," says Letao Wang, an astrologer and spiritual counselor. "Unlike a simple calendar flip, this transition carries millennia of astrological weight." Each year is represented by one of 12 animals from the Chinese zodiac. On TikTok, there's a lot of buzz about the upcoming " year of the horse," what it means for 2026."
"On Feb. 17, it won't just be the start of the year of the horse, but the year of the fire horse. Each year welcomes a new animal and a new element - and this one in particular brings good vibes. "The horse gallops in on fiery hooves," says Wang. "Symbolically, the horse represents speed, nobility, and raw freedom. But 2026 is no ordinary horse; it is a fire horse (Bing Wu), arriving once every sixty years.""
The Lunar New Year on Feb. 17 begins a new annual cycle marked by one of the Chinese zodiac's twelve animals and a corresponding element. 2026 inaugurates the Fire Horse (Bing Wu), a once-every-sixty-years combination associated with speed, nobility, raw freedom, charismatic energy, sudden movements, breakthroughs, and travel. The fire element amplifies bold action and rapid change, potentially bringing swift contracts and increased mobility. The new moon in Aquarius coincides with the start of the year, emphasizing community, togetherness, and collective aspirations for a brighter future. Social platforms show heightened interest in the implications and practical ways to embrace the year's energy.
