History
The Year of the Ox is the second in the 12-year cycle of the Chinese Lunar Calendar. According to Chinese mythology, the ox was the second to arrive at a race of the worlds animals to meet with the Jade Emperor. The ox would have been first if not for the crafty mouse that hitched a ride on its shoulders across a raging river.
