Ox in Tiger year 2010:
Stay strong and steady dear Ox! Tiger year brings chaotic energy that is
not comfortable for you. Although others take wild risks or enjoy caprices,
it is not in your best interest to do so. Instead, build on the solid gains
made in Ox year 2009. Stay diligent and conscientious with your work. Slow
and steady wins this race.
Ox Personality:
Ox believes that if she applies herself and performs, she will be
recognized and rewarded. Ox firmly perseveres and is not swayed by other
people's opinions. Rarely does Ox make an effort to seek social connections
to achieve success. But in today's work environment, where advancement often
depends on how you sell yourself, Ox may have to wait a long time to
her her just rewards. In this circumstance, the Ox individual can feel under
appreciated. But Ox must not become bitter and frustrated because of this,
for the Ox temperament can do even more damage to hinder success.
In relationships, Ox is a good provider. It is better for Ox to be
pursued than to be the hunter in selecting a mate. The surprises and thrills
of romance may not be Ox's forte because she may not be overtly romantic.
Nor is the Ox the first to try new things, set trends, or take the
initiative. Ox is home oriented and appreciates both a secure home and work
environment. Ox enjoys feasts and snacks, and often overeats out of habit.
To an Ox, it's not overeating, just grazing.
The year of the Ox is time for hard work. Like Oxen plowing the fields, we to must toil during this year. Success is attained through diligent work and conscientious effort. Begin by putting your affairs in order, especially your home. Stick to routine, tried-and-true methods, and conservative actions. Wild, new concepts will not be well received. (Save them for the following Tiger year). Ox year is not a time for laziness. Everyone is expected to work and contribute. But if we refrain from rebelling, follow the rules, and obey authorities, there will be a bountiful harvest. Expect conservative politics.
In an Ox year it is best to go slowly, drive carefully, be gentle in your
dealings with others, and be very thorough in your work. In Ox year, if
your life seems like a series of boring or repetitive tasks like an Ox
plowing the fields, this year is an opportunity for you to elevate
your everyday mundane tasks by doing them in an extraordinary way. This is
because the Ox qualities of hard work, duty, and discipline allows one to do
ordinary things in an extraordinary way.
For example, preparing dinner tonight is usually an ordinary task, but how
can you apply your creativity to prepare dinner in an extraordinary way? And
then clean the kitchen in an extraordinary way? When you converse with a family
member or co-worker about a simple task, see how can ordinary reality be
elevated to extraordinary. The balance of ordinary and extraordinary is key to
success in an Ox year.
