Year of the Fire Horse 2026: Week One Already Has Me By the Throat
The Year of the Fire Horse started on February 17th. By the end of the first week, I'd already lived through a revenue high, the worst product failure of my career, and a perfect score in a leadership class. Three massive swings in seven days.
The Year of the Fire Horse 2026 started on February 17th. By the end of the first week, I'd already lived through a revenue high that made my chest tight, the single worst product failure in my career as a founder, and a perfect score in a leadership class on communicating with impact.
Three massive swings in seven days. And apparently, that's exactly how this year is supposed to go.
I didn't learn this from a trending article. My father, known as the Firepig, is a Chinese astrologer. I grew up in this world and ran his astrology business for a stretch. We're relaunching some of his books and products this year, which means I'm not just watching the Fire Horse from the sidelines. I'm building inside it.
That background gave me something most business operators don't have: a framework for reading the energy of a year before it arrives. And this year? I could feel the heat coming long before February 17th.
