Good Health for Oxes
Oxes are strong and robust; they can enjoy a fairly healthy and long life,
fulfilled lives, and little illness.
Because of hard work with a stubborn personality, they often spend too much time in their work,
rarely allowing themselves enough time to relax, and tend to forget meals,
which make them have intestinal problems.
So enough rest and a regular diet are needed for Oxes to work efficiently.
With a stubborn temperament, they find it easy to bear stress and tension,
and they are reluctant to reveal themselves to others.
Proper relaxation and regular short trips will benefit the Ox.

they can come up with different approaches to their task.
With a keen eye for details and an admirable work ethic, they are competent in such careers
as agriculture, manufacturing, pharmacy, mechanics, engineering, draftsmanship, artistry,
politics, real estate, interior design, painting, carpentry, or quarry work.
With a stubborn temperament, they find it easy to bear stress and tension, and they are reluctant to reveal themselves to others. Proper relaxation and regular short trips will benefit the Ox.
Wood, Fire, Earth, Gold, and Water Oxes
In Chinese element theory, each zodiac sign is associated with one of the five elements: Gold (Metal), Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. For example, a Wood Ox comes once in a 60-year cycle.
It is conjectured that someone's personal characteristics are decided by their birth year's
zodiac animal sign and element.
So there are five types of Oxes, each with different characteristics:
Wood Ox (1925, 1985) Restless, decisive, straightforward, and always ready to defend
the weak and helpless
Fire Ox (1937, 1997) Short-sighted, selfish, narrow-minded, impersonal, but practical
Earth Ox (1949, 2009) Honest and prudentive, with a strong sense of responsibility
Metal Ox (1961, 2021) Hardworking, active, always busy, and popular among friends
Water Ox (1913, 1973) Hardworking, ambitious, tenacious, and able to endure hardship,
with strong sense of justice and keen observational abilities
