Rabbit: the year of the Fire Horse 2026

This year of the Fire Horse may feel like a trial for you, Rabbit, as it weakens your sign, a time when what is already shaky may give way.

Be mindful to pace yourself and consolidate your foundations before you build anew. This is a year to nurture your strength and stability, so be gentle with yourself and avoid overextending your limits.
