As mid-summer turns to autumn, Taiwanese astrologer Yang Deng-kou reveals which zodiac signs may see financial gains and which could experience challenges in 2026, offering spiritual advice alongside predictions.
Midsummer has already slipped into autumn, and that is exactly the sort of seasonal marker that gets fortune-watchers talking about what the rest of 2026 might bring. According to Taiwanese astrologer Yang Deng-kou, this is the year for three zodiac signs to feel especially upbeat about money: Pig, Rooster and Snake. On the flip side, he singled out Rat, Horse and Tiger as the signs most likely to face financial friction, a reminder, in his telling, to slow down, think twice and avoid impulsive money moves.
Yang’s read on the brighter side of the ledger is straightforward enough. Pig comes out on top thanks to a run of auspicious influences, with the suggestion that past effort, good karma or help from influential backers could start paying off. Rooster is described as being supported by a strong luck star, meaning steady work may bring steadier rewards. Snake, meanwhile, is said to be recovering after a difficult previous year, with a stronger chance of turning the corner and seeing better results.
The cautionary list is just as vivid. Rat is said to be dealing with a clash year, along with loss-related energies that could make investments feel shaky and arguments more likely. Horse, which is presented as being in its own year, is framed as busy to the point of distraction, raising the odds of mistakes and needless disputes. Tiger is warned against getting dragged into other people’s decisions, especially if money is involved, because trust in the wrong place could turn into real losses.
For readers looking for a spiritual boost rather than a stock tip, Yang suggested turning to Nine Heavens Mystic Mother, also known in folk practice as Nine Heavens Grandma or Mystic Mother. In Chinese religious tradition, she is often associated with military strategy, magical knowledge and decisive breakthrough energy, which is why she is seen as a fitting figure for people hoping to reverse a run of bad luck, seek extra income or make a fresh start. As with most zodiac readings, the advice is best treated as a cultural guide rather than a guarantee , but for anyone keen on a little symbolic momentum, it is certainly a colourful place to begin.
