Your Luck & Remedies In The Year Of The EARTH OX 2009

Chinese New Year 4706 or 2009 in the Western calendar is the Year of the Female Brown Earth Ox — sometimes called the cow or water buffalo. This year of the ox is the second year in this 12 year cycle of the Chinese zodiac.

Like the houses of the zodiac in Western astrology, the animals of Chinese astrology are thought by many to influence your luck during the year. Your horoscope for 2009, the year of the ox, depends on which animal signifies the year you were born.
