People born in the year of the Ox are described as intelligent, determined, mild-tempered, reliable, trustworthy, low key & humble. They want their work to speak for itself. They tend to follow rules & think logically. This makes Ox good leaders. However, due to their confidence (almost arrogance), they don’t allow anyone to go against their rules which makes them stubborn and closed off to suggestions at work. They have high expectations for those around them.

What Zodiac animal is most compatible with the Ox?

The Ox is the most compatible with the Rat. Their Earth/Water signs align and they complement each other’s lives. The Snake & Rooster are also good options. Tiger, Dragon, Horse, and Sheep are thought to be incompatible with the Ox.
