		Mine is the stabilizing force
		That perpetuates the cycles of life
		I stand immobile against the
		Test of adversity.
		Resolute and unimpeachable.
		I seek to serve integrity,
		To bear the burdens of righteousness.
		I abide by the laws of nature-
		Patiently pushing the wheel of Fate.
		Thus, I shall weave my destiny.

		I am the Ox.


Intelligent and self-confident. Patient and methodical, helpful and hardworking. Although they might appear rigid and slow, a kind and active mind is beneath. A Natural born under works systematically, the Ox is responsible for family and believes in authority but is sometimes too stubborn and traditional.

The Ox or the Buffalo sign symbolizes prosperity through fortitude and hard work. A person born during this year will be dependable, calm and methodical. A patient and tireless worker, he sticks to routine and conventions. Although he is generally fair-minded and a good listener, it is difficult to make him change his views as he is stubborn and often has strong prejudices.

Still, because of his steady and trustworthy character, the Ox person will be entrusted with positions of authority and responsibility. He will not fall short where duty calls. As a matter of fact, he should be careful not to get carried away.
