2026 is the Year of the Fire Horse, beginning on 17 February, bringing energetic and dynamic Fire Horse (Bing‑Wu) energy. In traditional Chinese astrology, selecting the right day to move in or out of a home can foster harmony, prosperity, and a smooth transition.
Chinese almanacs mark auspicious moving dates, listed as 宜入宅 or 宜搬迁 (“suitable for moving or entering a home”). Avoiding dates that clash with your family’s zodiac signs and aligning with favourable elemental energy can enhance the positive flow of a relocation.

Dates to approach with caution
Days that clash with your zodiac sign or oppose the annual Tai Sui (Grand Duke Jupiter) are traditionally considered less favourable. People of clashing zodiacs should avoid these days unless consulting a Feng Shui or Bazi expert. Consider the elemental balance—Fire, Water, Wood, Metal, Earth—and check household members’ zodiac signs. Traditional almanacs or expert guidance can provide personalised recommendations.

CHINESE incense is used for spiritual connection (ancestors, deities), purification, healing, and creating ambiance.
