We are standing in a doorway.
February 2026 is not just another moment in time; it is a crossing. We are completing the final shedding of the Snake year while feeling the first stirrings of the Fire Horse rising underneath us.
The Snake has been uncoiling, layer by layer. Old skins loosening. Old stories losing their grip. What remains unfinished has a way of knocking a little louder now, not to trouble us, but to be released.
If emotions are surfacing quickly- anger, restlessness, memories repeating themselves – this is not something to fix. It is something to listen to.
There is a kind of labor happening. A final push. The body, the heart, the psyche preparing to give birth to something new.
I’ve been sitting with the word exodus.
Not as escape, but as freedom.
A quiet departure from emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual patterns that no longer belong to who we are becoming.
When something keeps returning, when a feeling or situation repeats, it is asking for awareness. What we resist gathers energy. When we allow ourselves to see it, feel it, and acknowledge it, its power softens. Sometimes it simply dissolves.
And in that release, energy returns to us.
The Fire Horse carries momentum. Power. Creative force. But it asks that we travel light. This is not the kind of power that drags old baggage behind it. It is the power of movement, direction, and presence.
We are being asked to trust ourselves more deeply now.
Not the noise. Not the opinions. Not the constant interpretations coming at us from every direction. Your ability to know what you feel is intact. It is reliable. It is wise.
Nothing rising now is a mistake.
Everything is showing itself so it can be transformed, so anger can become energy, and energy can become creation.
Stay with yourself.
Stay present.
Let what is falling away fall.
Momentum is being born.
