Born in 1997: the Ox
A Yin Fire Ox 🐂
The Ox is the steady worker of the zodiac: disciplined, calm under pressure, and trusted to finish what it starts. Loyalty runs deep. As a Fire-element year, 1997 adds a dynamic, warm and a little restless streak to the usual Ox character.
The 1997 lunar year ran from February 7, 1997 to January 28, 1998. If you were born on or after February 7, 1997 you are a Ox; if you were born earlier in 1997, you belong to the previous year's sign, the Rat.
