The Year of the Ox: A Zodiac Legacy
The Ox is the second animal of the Chinese Zodiac, following the mouse. The Year of the Ox recurs every 12 years, previously celebrated in 2009, 1997, 1985, and earlier. The 2021 Year of the Ox began on 12 February 2021. In Chinese culture the Ox is a symbol of hard work and prosperity, and those born under this sign are said to be honest, reliable and natural leaders.
