According to Feng Shui principles, 2026 is marked by an exceptionally strong Fire element, creating a year filled with dynamic energy, transformation and opportunity.

To mark this auspicious transition, Dusit Central Park and Dusit Thani Bangkok highlight the importance of harmony between people, place and cosmic energy. The Year of the Horse is expected to bring powerful momentum, particularly for those born in the Goat, Tiger and Dog years, who are predicted to receive strong support, new opportunities and personal growth. Meanwhile, other zodiac signs are encouraged to embrace balance, mindfulness and strategic planning to navigate the year’s heightened energy.

The year also brings special attention to the concept of Tai Sui or the “year of conflict”, which traditionally affects those born in the Rat, Rabbit and Horse years, with Ox and Rooster experiencing milder influences. Feng Shui practitioners recommend practical ways to restore harmony and reduce negative energy.

These include incorporating Earth element colours such as yellow, orange, brown and cream into everyday items, symbolically balancing the strong Fire energy of the year. Adjusting living or working spaces in the north-east sector to be clean, organised and enhanced with calming elements such as greenery, water features or aromatherapy is also believed to encourage positive flow.

According to Feng Shui Master Tawan Lekhapat, at a broader scale, location plays an important role in Feng Shui. Facing Lumphini Park and aligned with favourable directional energy, Dusit Central Park and Dusit Thani Bangkok are regarded as an auspicious place to gather, dine and relax while embracing the positive momentum of the year ahead.

As Bangkok welcomes the Year of the Horse, the blend of heritage, modern living and timeless Feng Shui wisdom offers a meaningful way to begin the year with optimism, balance and renewed inspiration.

Master Tawan Lekhapat recommends spending time in auspicious locations. In Bangkok, Dusit Thani Bangkok and Dusit Central Park are regarded as especially favourable, facing the northeast and overlooking Lumphini Park, long considered a hub of fortune and positive energy. Guests are invited to pause, dine or simply spend time enjoying the park views to absorb this invisible yet meaningful energy.

For a deeper experience, an overnight stay at Dusit Thani Bangkok offers the opportunity to appreciate the sweeping city and park vistas from wall-to-wall windows stretching across the full width of the room, helping restore balance and welcome the Year of the Horse with a stronger spirit for the year ahead.
