Check the 2026 Zodiac Conflict Year list: Which signs should be cautious?
Those born in the Year of the Rat should pay special attention, as it is their direct Zodiac Conflict Year—the year they are most affected, especially concerning legal issues and disputes. Those born in the Year of the Rabbit, Horse, and Rooster are in indirect conflict years and may face minor obstacles but less severe than the direct conflict year.
The urgent remedy for Zodiac Conflict involves entrusting your destiny to the "Tai Sui Deity," the protector of one's fate. Begin by worshipping the principal deity, the Mother Tao Bo, followed by the Tai Sui deity of the current year, and conclude by honoring the Tai Sui deity of your birth year to seek safety and protection.
Hong Kong conflict-resolution spots include the underground chamber at Wong Tai Sin Temple and the Celestial Hall at Yuen Yuen Institute. The highlight is worshipping "Guan Yin," the Goddess of Mercy, for blessings before going to zodiac-specific deities. Ajarn Katha recommends everyone start by praying to Guan Yin at Tsz Shan Monastery, a beautiful temple nestled in a valley with a 76-meter-tall white statue of Guan Yin. The key ritual is meditative walking while pouring water into the "Wishing Pond." Remember to book your visit in advance online.
