The month of the Horse begins on June 5. The Yang Wood will feed the Fire element of the Horse, creating considerable energy. In the year of the Fire Horse, this can mean joy and celebrations. This is backed up by the the Center sector this month, since the combination of stars brings academic excellence, joy, and celebration. If you have plants in the center of your home, they will feed the Fire energy.
The next best location this month is the Southeast, which is visited by the energetic 3 Wood, which will feed the Annual celebratory 9 Fire, which in turn feeds the auspicious 8 White Earth (wealth star).
There is tension and concern for accidents in the Southwest and East this month, and the Northwest harbors possible illness and accidents, so avoid those sectors if possible.

June is the Annual Tai Sui month so be mindful of how you conduct business and relationships of any kind. While this is the overall energy of the month, the South is particularly activated by this energy. The Wood of the month will feed the Fire of the Horse, increasing the energy levels. So, expect some volatile energy. It’s also a month of celebrations and joy. Characteristics of the wood horse include good leadership, a propensity for travel, but may be temperamental. The Horse finds the Ox, Rat, and Monkey difficult to get along with, but it interfaces well with every other zodiac animal.
Rat is the Sui Po/Annual Clash, so if you have Rat in your chart there could be changes and challenges ahead. The best way to prepare for this is to be ready to pivot and keep your head down. You will also have a Clash if you have Yang Metal in your chart or were born in a year ending with 0.
If you have Yin Metal or were born in a year ending with 1, this is a Nobleman month for you. There will be helpful people when you most need them.
If you have Horse in your chart, this is a Self Penalty month for you. Be aware that self sabotage is afoot and don’t let it derail you. Since this is also the Annual Tai Sui month, you will likely be noticed more, and revered for your wisdom and leadership.
If you have Yin Earth in your chart or were born in a year ending with 9, you will have a Combination Star that is similar to a Nobleman. It will also negate any Clash in your chart. A Goat in your chart will also form this beneficial Combination.
NOTE: The end of this month will be the beginning of the second round of Mercury Retrograde (June 29 - July 23) for the year.

The central energy of the Yin Water Snake month doesn’t offer up much in the way of support with the maleficent 5 Yellow (Earth) Star visiting and controlling the annual 1 White (Water) star. To counteract this energy, use Metal, such as coins, in the center sector of your home or business. Not only will it mitigate the catastrophic (accidents, sickness, etc) 5 Star, but it will combine with the Annual and Prevailing Stars to create wealth energy.
The East and West sectors harbor aggressive energy. The Southwest hosts the 2 Black Illness Star, which encourages the accident-ridden 7 Red Star that combines with the 6 White prevailing star to form a violent Crossed Swords. The South hosts the 9 Purple Fire Star boosts the Annual 5, encouraging catastrophic energy. It’s best to avoid these zones.
The Southeast, Northeast, North, and Northwest are the most supportive zones to hang out in this month.

The Water Snake is intuitive, emotionally intelligent, charming, a deep thinker, and adaptable. Let’s hope some of that prevails over the hotheaded war mongers this month! The Snake month marks the beginning of the Fire months of Summer. It is ruled by Yin Fire (candlelight) with hidden elements of Yang Metal, Yang Fire, and Yang Earth. This forms a productive cycle of elements, along with the annual element of Yang Fire. The month’s Water element forms a clash that creates some tension, but it’s also an opportunity for change.
Different Stars and Combinations form every month in your 4 Pillars and 10-yr Annual Luck Pillar. If any of the following are in your Year pillar, it will affect your Network. If in your Month pillar, it will affect your career. If in your Day pillar, it will affect your personal life. If in your Hour pillar, your output or anything or anyone you oversee, or create. If in your 10-yr Luck pillar, you will likely meet someone who will influence your life in the future.
If you have Water (yin or yang) in your personal pillars, it will form a Nobleman, including any year ending with a 2 or 3. This is your personal good luck charm, since people will be around to help when you need them.
If you have Pig, Rabbit, or Goat in your chart, it will form a Sky Horse Star, which promotes travel or movement of some kind.
Snake + Tiger + Monkey forms a Fire Penalty that can affect relationships and health. If you have one of the combining zodiac animals, there is a lesser combination. But if you have both the Tiger and Monkey, be mindful of your relationship interactions and take care of your health.
Pig forms a Clash with the Snake month, so if you have this zodiac animal in your chart it can create obstacles and change. Also, if you have Yin Fire in your chart, it will form a Clash with the Yin Water of the month.
Yang Earth or Monkey will form a Combination that cures any clash in your chart.

The Yang Water Dragon is associated with massive change, bringing either growth or volatility. Considering the current geopolitical situation in the US and other places around the world, I’d predict more of the same volatility. On the other hand, Water tempers Fire, so there’s hope for less malevolent change that supports growth. We could use a little break from the destructive nature of the current leadership. On the bright side, this energy could very well support you and/or your business this month. The Dragon is the most powerful and mystical of all the Zodiac animals, symbolizing authority, ambition, and fortune. Try to avoid becoming overwhelmed by outside forces.

The Dragon and Dog Zodiac animals are so pure and powerful that they don’t have Noblemen.

If you have Dog in your chart, you’ll be in a Clash this month. Expect changes and/or challenges. Clash months are always opportunities for growth…either in your network (year), career (month), personal (day), or output (hour) pillars.

If you have Rooster in your chart, it forms a supportive Combination with the Dragon that “cures” clashes.

If you have Yang Fire in your chart it will form a Clash with Yang Water this month. On the other hand, if you have Yin Fire in your chart, it will form a Combination with the Yang Water similar to a Nobleman.

If you have Dragon in your chart, this will be a Self-Penalty month for you. Be mindful of any self-sabotaging attitudes or behavior.

4/5/26 - 5/4/26 This Ren Yang Water Dragon Month has a lot of water in the center. The 6 Metal visits and enforces the 1 Water, creating a wall of Water. Water suppresses Fire, so we can expect every building to bring a little “fire suppression” this month. Ren is powerful, rushing water…picture a waterfall or river rapids.

The most favorable segment this month is the Center Palace. The 1-6 combination supports fame and fortune. The next most favorable is the NE, where the 9 Fire visits and is stoked by the annual and prevailing Wood stars. This combination will provide a celebratory space.

The South gets some relief this month with the arrival of the 1 White (Water) star, and the West also hosts the benevolent 8 Earth…though there’s some tension here.

The least favorable sector is the Southeast. The catastrophic 5 Yellow Star visits and is supported by the Fire and Earth annual and prevailing stars. Avoid spending time in this area.

The Southwest holds a lot of aggression and tension, and the Northwest is also very aggressive. Be mindful of security here. The East (tension) is another area to avoid, along with the North (illness).
