Metal Ox: 1961

This Ox is confident and very strong-willed. He can be blunt and forthright in his views and is not afraid of speaking his mind. He sets about his objectives with a dogged determination, but he can become so involved in his various activities that he can be oblivious to the thoughts and feelings of those around him, and this can sometimes be to his detriment. He is honest and dependable and will never promise more than he can deliver. He has a good appreciation of the arts and usually has a small circle of very good and loyal friends.

Water Ox: 1913, 1973

This Ox has a sharp and penetrating mind. He is a good organizer and sets about his work in a methodical manner. He is not as narrow-minded as some of the other types of Ox and is more willing to involve others in his plans and aspirations.

He is a good judge of character and has such a friendly and persuasive manner that he usually experiences little difficulty in securing his objectives. He is popular and has an excellent way with children.

Wood Ox: 1925, 1985

The Wood Ox conducts himself with an air of dignity and authority and will often take a leading role in any enterprise in which he becomes involved.

He has tremendous drive and willpower and an extremely good memory. He is particularly loyal and devoted to the members of his family and has a most caring nature.

Fire Ox: 1937, 1997

The Fire Ox has a powerful and assertive personality and is a hard and conscientious worker. He holds strong views and has very little patience when things do not go his own way. He can also get carried away in the excitement of the moment and does not always take into account the views of those around him. He nevertheless has many leadership qualities and will often reach positions of power, eminence and wealth. He usually has a small group of loyal and close friends and is very devoted to his family.

Earth Ox: 1949, 2009

He is also very loyal to his family and friends and his views are often sought.

PROSPECTS FOR THE OX IN 2010

The Year of the Ox (26 January 2009 to 13 February 2010) holds encouraging prospects for the Ox and in the remaining months he can accomplish a great deal. However, to make the most of this time he will need to be open and pay special attention to his relations with others. The Ox often has a tendency to set about his activities in his own way—some Oxen are particularly independent—but to get the most from the remaining months of the Ox year he should make the most of his chances to meet others. Many Oxen can look forward to some rewarding occasions in their home life at this time and these can often be all the more special due to a family celebration earlier in the year. For many Oxen, 2009 can be a personally memorable year. For those enjoying romance this can be an exciting time, while those who are unattached could find their social life becoming much busier.

This likelihood of social activity also applies to the Ox’s work, and in the closing months of the year he would do well to liaise with colleagues and make the most of his chances to network. By raising his profile, he can benefit from some fine opportunities. For those seeking work this is also a time to be active and explore openings. The Ox year is very rewarding of effort and the Ox himself, determined and resolute, will be well placed to benefit from it. The key, however, will be his relations with others.

The Year of the Tiger starts on 14 February and will be a mixed one for the Ox. He likes to plan and be methodical and organized, but in the Tiger year events can happen quickly. The Ox may be concerned about some of the developments and this will not be an easy time for him, but as he has so often shown, he is made of stern stuff and, with care, he can gain a lot from what happens over the year.

In his work he will need to keep alert. Although he may prefer to concentrate on what needs to be done, he could find he has to contend with delays, increased bureaucracy and sometimes the unhelpful attitude of others. In addition he may have to adapt to new working procedures and personnel. For one so conscientious and so keen to stick to the tried and tested, this can be difficult. However, by putting in the effort, the Ox will find his fortitude will prevail and he may well emerge with much to his credit. This can include headway made under difficult conditions, personal success, skills mastered or new responsibilities secured. The going will sometimes be tough, but the Ox is a doer and survivor and over the year he will have a good chance to demonstrate his strengths.

Although many Oxen will remain with their present employer, they will often have the chance to vary their role and in the process learn about other aspects of their work. However, for those eager to make a change, the Tiger year can be an important one. Securing a new position will not be easy, but by widening their options, seeking advice and being prepared to adapt and learn, they will find their persistence paying off, with many being offered an interesting position with the potential for future development. March, April, September and November could see some good opportunities. Work-wise, this is, though, a year when all Oxen will need to keep their wits about them and adapt to situations as they arise.

The Ox will also need to be his usual cautious self when dealing with money matters. Events can happen quickly this year and bring unexpected costs. These could include repairing or replacing items, increased accommodation costs or debts that need paying. In 2010 the Ox will need to keep vigilant, check the terms and implications of any major purchase or transaction and use his money prudently. Making early provision for his outgoings will help. Money-wise, this is a year for good planning and the avoidance of risk.

A more satisfying part of the year will concern the Ox’s personal interests and although he will have many demands on his time, it is important he gives himself the chance to enjoy recreational pursuits. These can be particularly good ways for him to relax and take his mind off other pressures. Some interests can also have pleasing social benefits and throughout this busy year the Ox owes it to himself to preserve time for activities that bring him pleasure.

He will also very much enjoy aspects of his home life, especially shared activities and interests. When major purchases or accommodation decisions need to be made, considering options jointly will lead to better choices that can be appreciated by all. In addition, family treats and trips out as well as a possible holiday can do the Ox and his loved ones good as well as provide the opportunity to unwind.

However, while the Tiger year can bring some pleasing times, it is still one for care. Over the year the Ox does need to listen closely to his loved ones, watch his sometimes independent tendencies and, if tired or under pressure, try not to take his irritation out on others. Without care, disagreements could flare up and this is something all Oxen need to be wary of. When experiencing any problems or pressures, they will find that being open and forthcoming will give others more chance to help and understand.

The Ox will also need to tread carefully in social situations, as an inadvertent comment or lapse could cause problems. Those Oxen enjoying romance need to be particularly aware and attentive. However, despite the cautionary aspects, the Ox will thoroughly enjoy many social occasions and his socializing can do him a lot of good. March, April, June and August could see the most social activity.

The main advice for the Ox this year is to proceed carefully. This is a time of volatility and although the Ox prefers to follow carefully laid plans, he will need to adapt and make the best of situations as they arise. During the year he will face new challenges, but in the process he will learn a lot, discover new strengths and possibly take up new interests as well as take satisfaction in the progress he makes.

The Metal Ox

The element of Metal gives the Ox added determination. Always keen to make the most of himself, the Metal Ox sets about his activities with diligence and commitment. While he will continue to do so in 2010, the Tiger year may be a challenging one for him. Problems, delays and obstacles may all affect his plans, and parts of the year are likely to be frustrating. However, opportunities and interesting choices can follow on from the events that take place.

Throughout the year the Metal Ox will need to keep alert to all that is going on around him. This is no time for him to be so immersed in his own activities that he is oblivious to the views of others. To prevent problems, he needs to be aware and show flexibility.

This particularly applies to his work situation. Although many Metal Oxen will be satisfied with their present position and happy to continue with their duties, over the year they will feel the effects of change, whether through the introduction of new procedures or alterations to their existing role. The Metal Ox will often be concerned about the implications and pace of what happens, but will be faced with moving with the times and making the best of his situation. Nevertheless, some could find the changes give them the chance to further their experience and widen their role. In addition, others will often look to the Metal Ox for advice, and by assisting and doing what he can, he can improve his reputation. While this can sometimes be a difficult and frustrating year for him, there will still be scope to make progress and to use his considerable experience to good effect.

For Metal Oxen who are keen to change their employer, as well as those seeking work, the Tiger year can work in curious ways. Openings will be limited and these Metal Oxen must not be too restrictive in the type of position they pursue. However, an opportunity could arise in an unexpected manner, possibly through the Metal Ox seeing an advert by chance, making a tentative enquiry or being alerted to a possible opening by a colleague or friend. With the aspects as they are, opportunities can come along at almost any time, but late February to April, September and November could be important months.

Another important factor in how the Metal Ox fares will be his attitude towards others. He does possess an independent streak, but in work situations he does need to liaise with others and communicate readily. This is not a year when he can afford to be isolated or too removed from what is happening.

This advice also applies to his personal interests. By meeting other enthusiasts, whether by attending events and gatherings or joining a local group, he could find himself being helped and encouraged. Also, by preserving time for his interests, he will be helping to keep his lifestyle in balance.

The Metal Ox would also do well to give some consideration to his well-being and, especially if sedentary for much of the day, seek advice on appropriate exercise. If he is reliant on convenience food, he could find that a more balanced diet would boost his energy levels. To keep himself on good form, he would find it well worth giving some attention to his current way of life.

He should also try to go away for a break during the year. The rest and change of scene can do him a lot of good and even if he is not able to travel too far, he will appreciate the chance to see places that are new to him. If he is able to combine a holiday with an interest or event, this can bring extra meaning to his time away.

This will be a busy year as far as his domestic life is concerned and good co-operation and communication will be needed between family members. Throughout the year it is also important that the Metal Ox is open and prepared to share any pressures or concerns he may have. Not only can this lead to more offers of support, but it can also help rapport and understanding. Should any tensions or differences of opinion arise, taking the time to talk these through can be of great help. Tiger years are active ones and it is important that quality time is preserved for home life. If the Metal Ox has any ideas for shared activities, including home or garden improvements, he should put them forward, as they will often be appreciated. By being aware and open he will play a central and valued role in his domestic life.

As far as financial matters are concerned, this is a year for vigilance. Not only should the Metal Ox keep a close watch on his budget and make allowance for forthcoming expenses, but he should also be thorough with paperwork. This includes checking any forms he may be required to complete and the terms of any agreements he may enter into, as well as making sure essential policies are kept up to date. The Tiger year is not one for carelessness or risk.

Overall, this will be a demanding and sometimes disruptive year for the Metal Ox. Changes may suddenly arise and he could feel buffeted by events or situations outside his control. However, by being willing to adapt, he can often learn from them. And while the Tiger year may not be an easy one, the Metal Ox’s hard-fought achievements will be something that he can build on and enjoy more fully in following years.

TIP FOR THE YEAR

Pay attention to your relations with others. Listen to their views and be open and communicative. Also, spend time on your interests. They can do you a lot of good as well as keep your lifestyle in balance.

The Water Ox

This will be a mixed year for the Water Ox. He may well find himself under increased pressure and certain plans may be more difficult to realize than he had hoped. However, while there will be times of disappointment and sometimes despair, there will also be some very special moments and personal successes. This may not be an easy year, but it can be an important and illuminating one.

At work this will be a demanding year and while the conscientious Water Ox will often want to be left to carry out his own duties, distractions and delays are likely to arise. In addition he could find his work is not made any easier by the attitude of some colleagues or a lack of resources or other support. Some of the year will test his forbearance. However, one of his qualities is that he is no quitter. He is prepared to work hard, and by doing what he can, he will not only overcome some of the year’s obstacles but also have the opportunity to learn new skills. In addition his fortitude will often impress others and when opportunities arise many Water Oxen will find themselves well positioned to benefit. ‘Problems are opportunities in disguise,’ as the saying goes, and this will hold very true for the Water Ox this year.

Water Oxen who are anxious to change their job or who are seeking work could find it particularly helpful to consult those in a position to help. These could be career advisers, employment agencies or professional organizations, but by drawing on the advice available and widening their options, these Water Oxen may be offered an interesting new challenge. The Tiger year may be demanding, but the chances will be there. March, April, September and November could see some interesting possibilities.

Throughout the year, though, the Water Ox will need to be careful in financial matters. He could face some additional expenses, including costs for repairing and replacing equipment as well as helping with the activities of others. As a result he will need to keep a close watch on his spending and whenever possible save in advance. He should also check forms and financial agreements thoroughly and follow up anything that is unclear. This is no year for risk.

One of the most satisfying areas of the year will be the personal projects the Water Ox decides to set himself. For more creative Water Oxen, these could involve making items or using their skills in new ways, but whatever the Water Ox chooses to do, in this often busy year it is important he preserves time for activities he enjoys. Any Water Oxen who have let their interests lapse in recent times would do well to consider rectifying this. Also, Tiger years do favour the new and it could be that a pursuit that has recently become popular could be very suitable.

The Water Ox’s domestic life will also see a lot of activity over the year and he will do much to assist others. Younger relations in particular could be facing academic pressures and here the Water Ox’s encouragement and understanding will be particularly valued. Sometimes more senior relations will also look to the Water Ox for assistance and while he will again do much to help, there will be times when he will be torn in several directions and have to rush from one matter to another. There could also be some situations that concern him and add to the pressure. When this happens, or he has decisions preying on his mind, or is worried about the attitudes of others, it is important that he is forthcoming. With discussion, problems can often be resolved, tensions eased and decisions made. In this demanding year, openness and co-operation are essential.

While there will be some particularly busy times during the year, there will, however, also be some occasions which will mean a great deal to the Water Ox. An academic success, some progress made or a holiday or break can all bring a great deal of pleasure as well as be good for domestic rapport and understanding.

It is also important that the Water Ox does not feel so busy that he has to cut back on his socializing over the year. This not only helps keep his lifestyle in balance but can also give him the opportunity to get to know others. The unattached and those hoping for a more fulfilling social life will find that by going out and giving themselves the chance to meet others, their positive actions can lead to an improvement in their situation. March, April, June and August to early September could see the most social activity.

Overall, the Tiger year will be fast-moving and there will be times when the Water Ox will feel concerned about developments or under pressure. However, by doing what he can and rising to the challenges of the year he will gain important experience which he will be able to build on in the future. This is a time to remain alert, be prepared to adapt and remain mindful of others.

TIP FOR THE YEAR

Although you will have many demands on your time, do not let these prevent you from developing your interests. These can bring balance to your lifestyle as well as offer much personal satisfaction. Also, at busy or worrying times, do draw on the assistance of others. This can help you in many ways.

The Wood Ox

There are two words that it would be helpful for the Wood Ox to keep in mind this year: ‘awareness’ and ‘flexibility’. This will be a busy year and throughout the Wood Ox will need to remain alert and be prepared to adapt. He may have firm ideas and objectives, but to stay too wedded to these could hinder his progress.

One area which will see change will be work. Those Wood Oxen who have been in the same position for some time may well feel ready for a change at some point during the year. For many, this will be with their present employer and their in-house knowledge will make them strong candidates for promotion. Others will choose to look for greater responsibilities elsewhere, but whatever the Wood Ox does, this is a year favouring progress and personal development. Many Wood Oxen will be successful in securing a new position and taking on a more fulfilling role, and a lot will be expected of them, including learning new duties and, for some, altering their routine. The early days could be daunting and tiring. However, by having faith in their abilities and rising to the challenge, these Wood Oxen will often find their new role allows them to discover strengths which will become part of their onward development. Progress made this year can have important long-term benefits. Even those Wood Oxen who decide to remain in their existing role will find that developments will often require them to adapt and this will help prepare them for future possibilities.

For Wood Oxen seeking work, the Tiger year will not be easy. Patience and persistence will be required and there will be times when these Wood Oxen will feel despondent, especially when certain applications do not go their way. However, by drawing on the advice available, widening their options and showing initiative at interview, many will find their tenacity rewarded by the offer of a job that may be different from what they have done before, and this can be of great future value. Late February to the end of April, September and November could see some interesting openings, but opportunities do need to be seized when they arise.

The progress the Wood Ox makes in his work can lead to an increase in income over the year. However, while this will be welcome, the Wood Ox will need to remain disciplined in his spending. With his existing outgoings and plans for the future, this is no time to succumb to too many temptations. Also, if he should enter into any agreement or contract during the year, he does need to check the terms and obligations carefully. This is a year to be thorough and vigilant.

With his often demanding schedule, it is also important that the Wood Ox gives some consideration to taking sufficient exercise and having a well-balanced diet. To neglect his well-being or drive himself too hard could leave him prone to minor ailments or lacking his usual energy. He should also allow himself time for recreational pursuits rather than feel he needs to be continually active. His interests can bring him great pleasure and enjoyment.

In his relations with others, this can be an eventful year. For some Wood Oxen this could include parenthood and the considerable adjustments this can involve, while others could be involved in a move with their partner to more suitable accommodation and some will decide to marry. For many this will be a busy and special year, with a lot to do, plan and look forward to. Throughout, it is important that the Wood Ox is open, communicative and considerate. Decisions will need to be shared, plans sometimes adjusted and compromises reached. But with care and mindfulness, this can be a positive and exciting year.

Nevertheless, there will be some Wood Oxen who will be unhappy with their personal situation. Perhaps a relationship is unfulfilling or a friendship not as strong or as special as it once was. For some, the Tiger year can bring difficult decisions and uncertain times. However, as the proverb reminds us, ‘Fortune turns like a wheel,’ and for the few Wood Oxen who experience difficulties this year, disappointments will pass and fresh opportunities often open up, including, for those who are alone, meeting someone very special. Demanding though the Tiger year may sometimes be, it can have far-reaching significance. March, April, June and August could see the most social activity.

Overall, the Wood Ox will need to remain alert, vigilant and flexible over the Tiger year. But he will often be able to build on his accomplishments in the future, especially in the following and more favourable Rabbit year.

TIP FOR THE YEAR

Consult, communicate and be aware. Also be prepared to adapt to situations as they arise. This way you can learn a great deal and often find opportunities beginning to open up for you. Also, do be attentive to those who are special to you. This will add a lot to your year.

The Fire Ox

The Fire Ox has a determined nature and during his life his great sense of purpose and many skills will lead to him achieving a great deal. However, as we all know, some years are better than others, and for the Fire Ox this will be one of the more challenging ones.

For the Fire Ox born in 1997 this is a year for commitment and hard work. In his education a lot will be expected of him, with much to learn and many new skills to master. It will sometimes be difficult for the young Fire Ox to cope with such a wide variety of subjects as well as fit in all the other things he wants to do. Also, while he has his strengths, some subjects could be a struggle and cause him some anguish. The Tiger year will be demanding, but it is by being stretched and challenged that the Fire Ox can learn a lot, and over the year he will not only make important progress but also improve his awareness and general confidence.

Another benefit of the year will be the way in which the Fire Ox will be able to build on certain skills. Whether these involve physical and sporting activities, music, drama or some other area, by making the most of the facilities available to him, he can make considerable progress. Through commitment, he will learn and benefit. Some Fire Oxen could also find they are encouraged to make more of a certain talent and if they take the chances they are offered, what they do now can be of both present and future value.

In view of all the Fire Ox’s activities and pressures it is also important that he is forthcoming and talks over any problems or concerns he has with those who are able to help, either at home or at school. This way he can be better supported. In addition there could be occasions when he finds himself at odds with others. Sometimes what he wants to do may clash with something that others have arranged, or attitudes may differ over certain matters. At such times some give and take will be needed. However, if the young Fire Ox is willing to be open and join in with various activities, there will be much for him to appreciate, particularly in his home life.

He can also look forward to many enjoyable times with his friends and will welcome their support and camaraderie. He will also be reassured in the knowledge that he is not alone in some of the difficulties he may be facing.

Overall, the Tiger year will be a demanding one for Fire Oxen born in 1997, but by rising to the challenges and making the most of their opportunities, ideas and strengths, this can be a year when they will grow, develop and get to learn a great deal. And the commitment and effort they put in will provide them with a solid foundation on which to build in following years.

For Fire Oxen born in 1937, this will be a variable year. The Fire Ox does like to forge ahead and set about his activities in specific ways, but during the year he may have to reconsider some of his plans. In some cases others may suggest different approaches to certain tasks or it may be that changes to situations mean he has to look again at what he wants to do. As he will discover, the Tiger year is not one for intransigence, and showing greater flexibility will not only lead to more being achieved but ultimately to more being to his advantage.

However, while the Tiger year calls for increased awareness, it can also bring some personally rewarding times. Many Fire Oxen will particularly delight in some family news and events during the year, with shared interests and activities bringing much pleasure. The Fire Ox is also likely to have the chance to go away, and whether staying with relations or going away for a holiday, his travels can often add extra interest to the year.

When dealing with important finance and paperwork, though, the Fire Ox will need to be his usual thorough self as well as check anything which is unclear. This is a time when he should draw on the assistance and advice available to him.

Generally, the more senior Fire Ox will need to be flexible in his planning this year and mindful of the views of those around him. With care and awareness, however, the Tiger year can still contain a great many pleasures, especially in terms of shared interests, family news and activities.

Whether born in 1937 or 1997, the Fire Ox will find the year will require effort, flexibility and a willingness to make the most of his situation and opportunities. It is by being willing rather than steadfast that both the younger and more senior Fire Ox can get the best from the year and take pleasure in their achievements.

TIP FOR THE YEAR

Be accommodating in your approach. Adapt to situations and listen closely to others. Despite the mixed aspects a lot can go in your favour, but this is a year for flexibility and awareness.

The Earth Ox

One of the main traits of the Earth Ox is that he is perceptive. He is good at appraising situations and realistic in his aims, and in the Tiger year his talents will serve him well. By being adaptable and keeping his wits about him, he can emerge from the year with a lot to his credit.

For those Earth Oxen in work this can be a challenging time. Many will face change, possibly due to internal reorganization and the introduction of new initiatives and systems. Also, due to their experience, some could find themselves being given additional responsibilities. Work-wise, a lot will be asked of the Earth Ox and this will be very much a year for making the most of his situation and rising to the tasks given. These may not always be easy and some Earth Oxen will not be helped by delays, increased bureaucracy or the pettiness and unhelpful attitude of those around them. For these Earth Oxen parts of the year will be frustrating, but again it is a case of focusing on what needs to be done and resisting any irritations and distractions that arise.

Many Earth Oxen will remain with their current employer over the year, but for those keen to move, alter their working commitments or find work, the Tiger year can be daunting. In some cases there could be few suitable vacancies and when they do arise the Earth Ox could find himself facing stiff competition. However, one of the main features of the Tiger year is that it favours personal development and by being willing to widen the scope of what they are prepared to consider, many Earth Oxen will be given the chance to use their skills in different ways. The Earth Ox’s alert and perceptive nature will be of great help in keeping him informed of developments and possibilities. With the aspects as they are, chances need to be taken when they arise, but March, April, September and November could see some interesting possibilities.

In all the Earth Ox tackles this year, it is important that he is thorough. This is no time for risks or shortcuts, particularly when dealing with paperwork or forms which have financial implications. Earth Oxen, do take note. In addition, with any expensive purchase or plan he is considering, the Earth Ox should avoid rush. In some cases by waiting for more favourable buying opportunities he could save himself considerable outlay or find something that better meets his requirements. Many Earth Oxen are careful in financial matters, but sometimes the general pace of the Tiger year could make the Earth Ox act before he has considered all the implications. This is not a time for him to lower his usually cautious guard.

A more positive aspect of the year concerns the Earth Ox’s personal interests and he should allow himself the time to both enjoy and develop these. Not only can they bring him satisfaction and be a source of relaxation, but they can also have additional benefits. For those Earth Oxen who enjoy creative activities, new ideas and projects could be especially absorbing.

The Earth Ox’s interests can also bring him into contact with others, and by going to gatherings and events he will often enjoy himself and welcome the opportunity to meet other enthusiasts. In addition, when he has invitations to social occasions or sees events that appeal to him, he should follow these up. Although some Earth Oxen may be tempted to stay at home, their social life can bring an important balance to their lifestyle. Late February to the end of April, June and August could be particularly interesting months for socializing.

In the Earth Ox’s domestic life, this is a year to be attentive to the views of others. The Earth Ox does like to hold sway and make the decisions, but while those around him are grateful for all he does, it is important that he regularly consults them over plans and ideas as well as listens closely to their suggestions. Without care and mindfulness, misunderstandings or differences of opinion could arise which, with more discussion, could have been avoided. In addition, some plans could need altering as situations change, and again the Earth Ox will need to be accommodating. This is very much a year to be alert, flexible and liaise with others. However, despite the cautionary aspects, the Earth Ox’s domestic life will certainly have some meaningful times, including any holidays or breaks he is able to take with his loved ones.

Given the hectic pace of the year, the Earth Ox could also find it helpful to give some consideration to his well-being, including making sure he takes regular exercise and has a balanced diet, though he should seek medical guidance before making any modifications.

Generally, the Tiger year will be a demanding one for the Earth Ox and throughout he will need to remain alert and adapt to changing situations. However, with his perceptive and adroit nature, he can get a lot from the year, particularly in terms of exploring and developing some of his skills and interests.

TIP FOR THE YEAR

This can be a fast-moving year with changes taking place, situations altering and plans sometimes having to be modified. To benefit, keep alert and be flexible.
