Welcome to the year of Bǐng Wǔ 丙午 — the Fire Horse

The Fire Horse year begins at Lì Chūn (立春), the First Day of Spring, on February 4 according to the Solar Calendar — the true astrological start. The most celebrated day follows on February 17, 2026, with the Lunar New Year.

What does the Fire Horse Year mean?
Fire + Horse Energy
Fast-moving. Creative. Powerful.

Like a horse, Fire energy moves quickly but stays grounded—until it flickers. Yin Fire sparks ideas, joy, and inspiration, but can jump from one shiny thing to the next.

When Fire is balanced:
Creativity • Confidence • Leadership • Growth and action.

⚠️ When it’s not:
Impulsiveness • Scattered focus • Sleep and emotions are disturbed.

This double Fire year isn’t about fighting the flame—It’s about learning to work with it.

Back to school can be challenging for some kids, and they may be anxious about it; with homoeopathic remedies, it can be different.

Here are six remedies that can be helpful:
Aconite
It is suitable for a child who is very restless and fearful. They may find it difficult to sit still and have a scared expression. They may even suffer panic attacks at the mere thought or mention of school.
Calc carb
The child who could benefit from Calc carb is often very cautious and not keen on change. They prefer the security of home, so starting/going back to school can be very daunting for them.
Pulsatilla
Pulsatilla can benefit children who need a lot of support and reassurance when starting/returning to school. Young children may cry easily and cling to their parents, while older children can be very moody.
Gelsemium
A remedy for apprehension and anticipatory anxiety where the child may tremble with anxiety. They may seize up with fear and may even stutter. Sometimes they may develop diarrhoea as a result of the anxiety.
Lycopodium
Where the child may be lacking in confidence and anxious about not performing well or looking foolish in front of others. The child may compensate by appearing to be overconfident, but doesn’t feel it.
Arg Nit
A remedy for anticipatory anxiety, which can be extreme. The child may have a strong desire to perform well that may lead to a fear of failure. They may develop diarrhoea or flatulence as a result of the anxiety.

The Body as Garden, Lack of sunlight depletes the soil, too much sun burns the plants, too much wind dries them out, too much water rots their roots—so the same as our body.

The Gardner is your acupuncturist, who builds fences, digs ditches, ponds, and channels for irrigation.
