Overview
In 2026, the Year of the Fire Horse (Bing-Wu), fire is strong and earth is dry. For Yi Wood people, it is a year of "fire giving birth to Yi Wood, promoting vitality but with pressure and tests". Yi Wood is gentle, flexible and adaptable, but if the foundation is shallow, energy can easily be drained by the external environment.
Overall fortune shows: there are opportunities for career expansion, but competition is fierce; finances relatively steady, investments should be cautious; relationships are prone to emotional fluctuations, requiring patience and communication; health should pay attention to liver/spleen and mental stress. The key for Yi Wood is to "borrow fire to live, borrow earth to solidify", using environmental support to transform pressure into motivation.
