Dog monthly horoscope —
2026–2027, month by month
Dogs are honest and dependable. Once you are on their side, they defend you to the end, and they cannot stand injustice. Below is every solar month from September 2026 to December 2027 read for the Dog: the link between the month’s branch and yours, the month’s element against your Earth, and the best and care days inside it. Months begin at the solar terms, not on the 1st.
September 2026 the Rooster month · Sep 7 – Oct 7Same season · harmthis month
A same-season month for the Dog. The mood of the month matches your temperament, which makes it comfortable and slightly dangerous, because your weak spots share the month’s weak spots. Enjoy the ease, and ask someone with a different view before any big decision. The month’s Fire feeds your Earth: support, learning and backing come easier than usual.
Best days: Sep 13 (Tiger), Sep 14 (Rabbit), Sep 17 (Horse), Sep 25 (Tiger), Sep 26 (Rabbit), Sep 29 (Horse), Oct 7 (Tiger) · Take care: Sep 15 (Dragon), Sep 27 (Dragon)
October 2026 the Dog month · Oct 8 – Nov 6Same sign
A mirror month: the branch of the month is your branch. Energy is high and so is the temptation to do everything yourself. Delegate one thing, keep promises few, and spend the extra confidence on the conversation you have been avoiding. The month’s Earth matches your own element, adding company and competition in equal measure.
Best days: Oct 8 (Rabbit), Oct 11 (Horse), Oct 19 (Tiger), Oct 20 (Rabbit), Oct 23 (Horse), Oct 31 (Tiger), Nov 1 (Rabbit), Nov 4 (Horse) · Take care: Oct 9 (Dragon), Oct 21 (Dragon), Nov 2 (Dragon)
November 2026 the Pig month · Nov 7 – Dec 6Neutral
No fixed link between the Pig and the Dog: nothing pulls you along and nothing pushes back. A month whose shape you set yourself — the routine you keep is the result you get. Good for steady building, learning, and quiet progress on long projects. The month’s Earth matches your own element, adding company and competition in equal measure.
Best days: Nov 12 (Tiger), Nov 13 (Rabbit), Nov 16 (Horse), Nov 24 (Tiger), Nov 25 (Rabbit), Nov 28 (Horse), Dec 6 (Tiger) · Take care: Nov 14 (Dragon), Nov 26 (Dragon)

January 2027 the Ox month · Jan 5 – Feb 3Friction
Punishment months are for refinement. The Ox rubs against the Dog, and what it rubs off is sloppiness: unclear terms, loose promises, unread fine print.

April 2027 the Dragon month · Apr 5 – May 5Opposites
A month of friction and forward motion for the Dog. Things that were stuck come loose, which is useful if you wanted them loose and tiring if you did not.

The month’s Wood presses on your Earth: more responsibility and scrutiny, and the discipline to match.

May 2027 the Snake month · May 6 – Jun 5Quiet resentment

June 2027 the Horse month · Jun 6 – Jul 6Natural allies
A trine month: the Horse and the Dog face the same way. Meetings multiply and most of them are worth attending; a friend of a friend turns out to be exactly the person you needed. The risk is overcommitting to everyone who asks, so decide early which two efforts get your best hours. The month’s Fire feeds your Earth: support, learning and backing come easier than usual.
Best days: Jun 8 (Horse), Jun 16 (Tiger), Jun 17 (Rabbit), Jun 20 (Horse), Jun 28 (Tiger), Jun 29 (Rabbit), Jul 2 (Horse) · Take care: Jun 6 (Dragon), Jun 18 (Dragon), Jun 30 (Dragon)
