by Aura

*19 February 1901 - 7 February 1902: Metal Ox
*6 February 1913 - 25 January 1914: Water Ox
*25 January 1925 - 12 February 1926: Wood Ox

*29 January 1949 - 16 February 1950: Earth Ox
*15 February 1961 - 4 February 1962: Metal Ox
*3 February 1973 - 22 January 1974: Water Ox
*20 February 1985 - 8 February 1986: Wood Ox
*7 February 1997 - 28 January 1998: Fire Ox
*26 January 2009 - 14 February 2010: Earth Ox
*2021 - 2022: Metal Ox
*2033 - 2034: Water Ox

Those born in the year of the ox truly personify the animal sign they were born under. Patient, strong and dependable, the ox is a good friend to have. That is, if you are a more peaceful, quiet type.

The ox is an intelligent creature, but it doesn’t take kindly to a lot of outrageous behavior and can be extremely stubborn when it comes to proving that point and others. But when the ox is relaxed and peaceful, s/he can truly shine as the caring, smart individual s/he is.

It is this want for relaxation and peace that makes the ox-born among us driven by things other than money and material wealth. All that drive and competition in stocks, marketplaces, and whatnot makes the ox uncomfortable and long for predictable and patient things.

The ox-born need to remember that even though they don’t like people telling them what to do, other people do have valuable ideas, so they should try to listen.

Remember to refer to this post for information about what your element and yin or yang mean in accordance to your sign.
