Steady and loyal, the Ox is a faithful creature who always come through. Lean on an Ox in times of need. They love to be there for you! This sign is a rock-solid family person and a lifelong friend.

After all, an Ox’s success is built on sticking to goals and honoring promises. Look elsewhere for excitement, but turn to an Ox when you need a comforting, rock-solid presence and a dependable friend.
