While it’s an auspicious phase for most signs, especially the Goat, those with the Rabbit and Rat signs need to be cautious and careful

March 6 to April 4, the second solar month of the 2026 Chinese calendar in this Year of the Fire Horse, is represented by the Metal Rabbit, or xin mao. The elements of the month are metal and wood – yin in essence.

The Rabbit corresponds to the hours between 5am and 7am, when the day awakens to receive the purest energy. The Rabbit sign depicts peace, longevity and prosperity, according to Chinese culture, and those born in the Rabbit years possess a certain elegance and gentleness of nature; they are quiet but alert, skilful and quick, responsible, patient and kind.

This is the time of the year for strong growth and for potentially good progress to be made. The energy of spring and the element of wood are dynamic – like a tiny shoot, which has the energy and strength to push through the earth, and yet, which can also be snapped with our fingers.

It is important to proceed with plans while personal developments should be adhered to – especially if you are living or working in a building facing south, the weakest direction and location in 2026, with a high risk of disasters. Pay attention to home safety and injuries.

The Year of the Fire Horse will have a strong influence on our energy, and you may experience considerable excitement this year, due to unexpected changes and events in your life. Be ready for change and do not be afraid to step out of your comfort zone to get the most out of the year ahead.
