Happy Chinese New Year of the Fire Horse!

In Chinese metaphysics, each new year corresponds to one of the Five Elements: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. On February 17, 2026, we officially entered the Year of the Fire Horse, which will end on February 20, 2027.

The Fire element unites with the Horse sign, and this combination occurs only in 60-year cycles. This Fire Horse energy is associated with motivation, restlessness, and transformative changes.

This will be a more active and impatient year, less introspective and observant than the previous year, the Year of the Snake.

The Fire Horse brings strength to movement and speed to intention, always with the impetus to move quickly, which can lead us to feel physical and mental exhaustion. Just as the energy it craves is one of movement, release, and expansion, it can be excessively stimulating, which can lead to unbalanced emotions, situations, and environments.

Therefore, knowing how to manage this Fire Horse energy this year will be fundamental to achieving our goals.

Mountain energy homes or chalets

In Feng Shui practice, mountain energy, in its form and symbolism, is linked to the earth element, which signifies support, stability, and protection. Therefore, the location of buildings and even the interior spaces are studied precisely to attract these beneficial energies for the residents.


Within these marvelous mountain chalet constructions, we often find relaxation areas such as saunas, outdoor hot tubs with panoramic views, steam baths, and sometimes even indoor pools.


The welcoming atmosphere is also guaranteed by the presence of fireplaces (stone or modern) in the heart of the living room, complemented by soft fabrics such as wool blankets, plush cushions, and sheepskin rugs.


Another great characteristic is the tendency to use large panoramic windows to maximize natural light and integrate the external landscape with the interior, maintaining clean lines and noble materials such as wood and stone.

Welcoming the first chills of Autumn.🍂

For Feng Shui experts, the beginning of the Autumn season can be characterized by a metal energy.

Meaning that all the movement is about concentration, from outside to inside.

As nature slowly changes and frees itself from all the life that has passed, this is probably one of the best times of the year to look inside our minds, homes, and habits and do exactly the same, letting go of everything that no longer serves our life purpose.

If we align ourselves with the rhythms of nature and its seasons, daily life can certainly be more harmonious, without feeling so tired and exhausted, with much less stress and conflict.

Balancing the Fire Element

Summer has arrived in the northern hemisphere of the planet and, for the practice of Feng Shui, this means that this energy is characterized by the fire element.

This time of year is full of energy, light and heat, but the fire element is also very powerful and requires control and attention.

Fire, which keeps us warm, can also burn us, so it is clear that we must use this powerful source of energy carefully and in balance with other elements, such as the wood and water elements, which are capable of bringing a wonderful feeling of freshness and tranquility to any environment.

Being closer to trees, plants and water can help balance your Chi in the summer, within your body and mind, and within your living spaces.

Desert landscape.

Starting this year of the Dragon with a very challenging and unique Feng Shui project in the Sahara Desert, Morocco.

Also the beginning of Fire period 9, which comes with a powerful and unexpected twist for us to absorb.

This incredible experience in the desert, where we are part of the sky just like the stars, planets and comets, where the silence is such that the only noise is our breathing and where the sand is the only path you will see.

This strong Earth element environment with all the sand and the pure fire element of the sun, makes it one of the most powerful but also challenging places on earth to be, where every single living creature struggles to survive in these conditions.

Therefore, making it habitable and suitable for this difficult environment, offering a remote, intimate and luxurious experience will be the ultimate objective of the entire team involved, with the study of feng shui, the mentors and the architects.
