Year of the Fire Horse will be marked by disputes and statements by “alpha males”. How many will there be out there? In Portugal, also pay attention to energy prices…
Micky Hunga Fengshui master based in Macau, has no doubts: the Year of the Fire Horse, which begins Tuesday, on the day of a solar eclipse, will be “enormous impulsiveness, prone to lack of control and disputes between nations”.
“In the coming year, not only the small nations will have problems, but also the great powers will face uncontrollable situations, because the Fire is very strong, and when that is the case, political situations become turbulent everywhere, with disputes between nations, with everyone wants to be the alpha male“, he told Lusa.
The fire element, on the other hand, will remain in 2027, the next Year of the Goat.
Therefore, Now begins a cycle characterized by “enormous impulsivenessprone to out of control, like a sudden forest fire capable of spreading across many areas. This applies to the whole world, not just to Western countries, like the United States, or Eastern countries, like China, but to all nations, more or less powerful”, summarized Micky Hung.
On the other hand, natural phenomena related to Fire, such as fires or the activation of volcanoes, will be very intense, but also man-made disasters, such as explosions or wars.
What awakens alpha males?
“This war is real, based on records from the last thousand years, many wars occurred in the years of the Red Horse and the Red Goat [assim designados por Micky Hung os anos do Cavalo e da Cabra de Fogo]. In major conflicts, Fire incites irritability, aggressiveness or inability to resist, leading people to act recklessly, firm in their positions, unwilling to negotiate, and with rigid postures“, he described.
The large multilateral institutions, such as the United Nations, International Monetary Fund, World Bank, or NATO, will be, in this context, spaces of “deception”, where “conversations will be superficial, because another of the characteristics of Fire is that it is illusory”.
“Fire has no substance. It is, as the Cantonese say, like ‘blowing water’. We may have topics to discuss, but it is a waste of time to talk about them. Fire is like that, burning incessantly, without substance, just constantly burning outward,” he said.
“Communication between people will be exchanges without sincere words, purely sparks generated by passing encounters, without genuine connection. Collaboration and exchange between nations will also be very superficial. One proposes something, the other nods, without agreeing, without giving anything concrete. Nothing will be taken forward,” he added.
And the following year, that of the Red Goat, in Micky Hung’s designation, “will also be like this”. “It is a year that we call ‘deficient fire’ or ’empty fire’, where the fire is not real. Therefore, the discussions are not genuine and what is said by the parties will be far from reality. We are negotiating now, but after the burn, we will be thinking about other things.”
Returning to the Fire Horse
The year of the Fire Horse is, however, different. In this case, Fire is intense, fast, unexpected, impulsive, describes the Fengshui master. As a result, this will be a year of “lack of water”which in this cosmogony is related to wealth, and will also be an unfavorable year for the Metal element.
“Fire beats Metal”, and that is why the master does not recommend investing in gold or silver. On the contrary, “whoever has gold in his hands, after the beginning of spring [que na China ocorreu no passado dia 5]you must sell it and do not buy it back; let him go. Because finances are unfavorable; This year is unfavorable for finances, Fire is very strong”, he said.
Foresight is common to individuals and institutions. “Between international finance and global banking organizations, many contradictions will arise. The great powers will not accept their approach,” he predicted.
Regarding the lack of Water, which is an element that “conquers Fire”, Micky Hung advises the development of aquatic and underwater resources, including oil, minerals, and rare earths, to mitigate the influence of Fire energy.
Advice for Portugal
Here, he leaves some advice for Portugal: “Let’s focus on the seabed, underground — not on land, because it’s not about land, it’s about water.” “Portugal, in fact, has many resources that it hasn’t used,” he added.
Portugal, explains the Fengshui master, is located in the extreme southwest of Europe, which, in terms of the theory of the Five Elements – Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water – is a region surrounded by Metal. “The entire European region, its vast continental mass, is in the Water element”, but Portugal is located in an area that already corresponds to Metal, according to Micky Hung.
“To Europe, this energy of Metal from Portugal represents the dynamisma kind of impulse, which, when moving, is flexible and changeable, possessing a spirit of unshakable determination“, says the master.
Pay attention to energy prices…
However, he repeats, in 2026, “Fire dominates Metal, an element that, for example, governs energy sources. I predict that this year in Portugal there will be fluctuations in energy prices“, these.
Micky Hung also predicts “political disputes” in Portugal – as throughout the world – but, in this case, “people’s mentality will change a lot”.
Hence, he concluded, returning to Portugal’s “most powerful asset”, the country “must finding new sources of ocean energy”, including “prospecting for rare earths”, oil, or “taking control of shipping lanes”exploring possible inherent ‘royalties’, which will be one of the “most relevant” subjects in the coming years, according to the Fengshui master.
“Portugal’s home is the sea, with sailing ships. The country should be advised to consider this aspect”, he highlighted.
