Today marks the start of the Lunar New Year and the start of the Year of the Ox - one of the 12 signs of the Chinese zodiac.
Unlike Western astrology, each sign of the Chinese zodiac rules over an entire year, bringing with it particular energy to everything that occurs over the next 12 months.
As might be expected, the Year of the Ox signals good fortune for those born in the Ox years of 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997 and 2009. It also influences the fortunes of the other 11 animal signs, depending on their relationship with the Ox. The animal of the Chinese Zodiac that presides over 2021 is the Metal Ox, a steadfast and sensible fellow who knows above all how to lock his energy, explained Kay Tom, a Leicester-based master in feng shui and horoscopes at The Energy Specialist.
