General Characteristics of an Ox

Patient, hardworking and a great heart are the qualities most associated with the Ox. Under that cool and calm exterior belies a hot temper though so people should be wary not to provoke the Ox. The Ox is a completely transparent creature – what you see is what you get. There is no sense of pretense about him, he wouldn’t know how.

Devoted to his job and his family, he has a fierce loyalty that will never be broken. Resilient and determined, the Ox will be a fantastic partner in work or on a personal level. Just bear with the rough edges and you will have a diamond in the rough.

 

 



Strengths

 

The Ox is probably the most hardworking of the animal signs. It takes the Ox some time to make decisions, but once made, he is stalwart and unwavering. No matter what obstacles arise, the Ox will persevere until he reaches his goal. In times of hardships, the Ox’s stamina and strength will always pull him through.

The Ox is also a traditionalist at heart and holds his principles high. Not at all easily swayed, he will hold onto his beliefs and the people he cares about loyally. Once he is your friend, he will defend you to the end, always with the best interests of all at heart.

Taciturn by nature, the Ox simply gets on with what needs to be done, without much discussion, justifications or explanations. He can be a great leader as well as a responsible head of the family. His success will be reflected in his results rather than by words.

 

Weaknesses

The tenaciousness of the Ox can become a weakness if the Ox is inflexible, stubborn and fixated. While the Ox is principled, he is also firmly set in his thoughts and it is difficult to make him see another view. There’s a fine line between principled and bigotry and the Ox can sometimes veer towards the latter.

The Ox is also resistant to advice and criticism, however constructive it is. The Ox will often just screen out anything he is not comfortable listening to, which can make it frustrating for people who are working with him. He hates to fail and he also cannot accept people who are opposed to his ideas.

The Ox’s bad temper is legendary. Quick to flare up and only appeasable at his own pace, the Ox makes people tiptoe around him in fear of setting him off.

Generally intolerant of facetiousness, pretentiousness and insincerity, the righteous Ox will only work with those who are willing to work with the Ox on his terms. This requires complete transparency, a lot of hard work, honesty and forthrightness. Unfortunately, this can mean that there are few people left for the Ox to work with.

The Ox’s practical mind also makes him seem cold. Due to his lack of empathy and care, he may run roughshod over you in his eagerness to attain his objective, but he didn’t mean it. Really.

 

 

Career and Working Life

At work, the stalwart, obstinate Ox prefers to forge his own path to achieve a particular objective. He is likely to go off on his own track and as such, if he is a member of your team, you should keep close tabs on what he is doing. It is not that he is rebellious but simply decides that his way is best and he charges full steam ahead.

The Ox enjoys being in the great outdoors and usually has a green thumb. Work wise, he might gravitate towards agriculture, land development or plantation management. Sales, rental and purchasing of property would also be suitable for the steady Ox.

The Ox’s ability to follow rules and regulations strictly, as well as his general resilience and courage, makes the Ox also suitable for a career in the armed forces. The Ox makes a good leader because of his strong sense of moral discipline, ethics and firm responsibility.

He is a long-term thinker and will make sure that whatever work he does is sustainable and has the potential for growth. As he is not fond of change, he is risk-averse and will always look for the safest and most secure option.

While not very sociable, the Ox is generally kind by nature and can be attracted to charity work, spirituality and community service. Whatever work the Ox pursues, he is diligent to the extent of obsession. Watch out though – if he has issues in other areas of his life, he may use work to hide from the problems.

 

Love and Relationships

As in every area of his life, the Ox takes his time when it come to romance. He will consider and date for a long time before deciding on his mate, but when he finally decides, he is a faithful partner and his family will be his priority. A creature of habit, the Ox prefers places of familiarity and his home is his castle. He is not fond of traveling, and is happiest to just potter around his home and garden.

Practical and prosaic in nature, don’t expect the Ox to be flirtatious or creative in romance. However, where he lacks in refinement, he makes up for with honesty and reliability.

The Ox can be your best friend as once he believes in you, he will stand by you no matter what. However, once you let him down, he is inclined to hold a grudge and it will take a long time before he can forgive and forget.

 

Finances

The Ox is not a good speculator and knowing that, he is usually risk-averse. Everything he earns will have to come by hard work but since he works hard, he will be able to lead a reasonably comfortable life and provide for his family, which is important to him.

The Ox is generally not interested in material goods and he can be turned off by ostentation. As such, he lives within his means and does not overspend. His acquisitions and home environment are dictated more by practicality and comfort than luxury.

 

Social Life

The Ox’s introvert nature leads the Ox to avoid the limelight and he is happiest in the background. He enjoys his own company rather than group activities, and this naturally leads to a less developed range of social skills.

The Ox does not have a very high emotional quotient so he does not read people or their emotions well. He does not like to share, nor confide and keeps his thoughts to himself. As a result, there can be much unintentional miscommunication with an Ox.

However, because of his sincere, trustworthy and dependable nature, the Ox will always find people who like him and will support him.

 

Life Lessons

The Ox should not take things too personally and learn to let go of grudges because they do not serve him nor the goals he works so hard to accomplish. If the Ox could also be more objective and examine the feedback to improve himself, he would benefit greatly from it.

The Ox should tone down his opinionated views and learn to accept others’ thinking and judgments.  He doesn’t have to be just his way all the time. He must realise that if he continues to rely only on himself, he won’t get as far as he could if he had the support and assistance of others around him. If the Ox is in the role of a leader, he should be more flexible with the rules, otherwise he is likely to alienate his team if he is too strict.

Once the Ox realises that hostility and being confrontational is not achieving the results he wants, he would do better to consider bending or lowering his standards in order to take control and achieve his goals.

 

 

 

COMPATIBILITY

Who will the Ox share his manger with?

 

The Ox is the best of friends with the Rooster and the Snake. These three have great affinity with each other, so any partnership with people born under these signs or in the hour ruled by these animals will be successful. This injects much needed flair and fun to the evasive Snake and serious Ox; the intense Snake and flamboyant Rooster will be brought back to earth by the grounded, stable Ox.

The quiet Ox gets on perfectly with the chatty Rat, whose inherent insecurities will be assuaged by the Ox’s solidity and loyalty. If the Ox can make the Rat feel content, this will be a very positive union.

Other animal signs that the Ox gets on well with are the Monkey – their opposite natures of the Ox’s seriousness and the Monkey’s playfulness will attract. The Ox will also get on well with the Rabbit, who is also gentle and introverted.

 

 

Who will the Ox lock horns with?

 

The Ox clashes with the Sheep on various levels. The Sheep is an emotional creature while the Ox functions on pure logic. Both animals are equally stubborn so they will hardly ever see eye to eye.

The Ox will also have issues with the fierce Tiger, whose strong character and quick temper will clash with the Ox. Neither will give in, which can only result in disharmony.

The Ox and the Dragon is also ill matched, as the down-to-earth Ox tends to be intolerant of the Dragon’s flamboyant imagination.

 

How to work with an Ox

Do not provoke the Ox unnecessarily. Like a bull in a china shop, an aggravated Ox will become very destructive. And he will hold a grudge for a long time, so it’s best to avoid conflict if at all possible.

The straightforward Ox will also expect you to hold your ground and do what you say you will. Don’t beat around the bush – be direct, honest and sincere. He is a hard-worker and the best way to work with the Ox is to pull your weight.

Instead, resolve conflict with an Ox in a logical, supportive manner and you will find him more willing to consider your point of view. Note that this does not mean he will accept it but at least he will listen!

    I’m not a person who’s very into horoscopes and zodiacs, but somehow my friends are very interested in all these, so I kind of know what is what.
    I’m also an ox, born in the year of 1997, it is written that an ox is very tenacious, inflexible, stubborn etc. For me, I think that it’s quite true because I have been told that i’m very stubborn since young, which is not a good thing and is also what i’m working on in order to change.
    Thank You for sharing Rinpoche.

    Rinpoche, I’d like to seek your advice on two things:-

    1. What is my prospect of practising dharma in this life time?
    2. How will be my career in politics?

    Please kindly see your astrology and let me know.
    Thanking you.
    Warm regards.

    I’m an ox and this has been an eye opener. It is accurate regarding me on so many levels. Only issue I have a really good friend who is a sheep. We don’t conflict at all. 😀

    I was infected with Genital Herpes Virus 10 month ago, ever since then i have been searching for cure everywhere because i was feeling so uncomfortable with it. I have been dating for almost 5 years until i contracted Genital Herpes from my ex-boyfriend. since then I became very sad about the whole situation, always going online checking if i could get a cure to Genital Herpes, then i came across so many testimonies. Due to my seriousness and eagerness to be completely cured, i became a victim of fraud after contacting several so-called herbal doctors i was referred to. I lost a lot of money but i didn’t stop searching for a cure. Then one faithful day, i came across a testimony of a lady saying that she got her Genital herpes cured by a Great Herbal Doctor she called Dr iniboku by contacting him through his email address. And she advised anyone with Genital Herpes or Simplex Herpes to contact the herbal doctor for Herbal Cure. I contemplated for about 4 hours whether or not to contact him. then something inside of me told me ‘Nothing good comes easy’. I then contacted him through his email and told him my problem. He told me all the things I needed to do and also gave me instructions to follow, which I did properly. Just within weeks of drinking and applying the herbal medication he sent to me through DHL delivery service, i started seeing changes, i went to my medical doctor for check-up, i was so happy when the doctor told me i was no more having Genital Herpes Virus, it was all tears of Joy from that moment, People think herpes is really a minor skin irritation herpes has a long term effects on health and if i could ever meet a Genuinely Great Herbal Doctor. I’m so grateful to him. i am completely free from Genital Herpes Virus, i introduced a family friend who have Simplex Herpes virus to him, He called me and told me he was also cure completely. I promised to share my own testimony like that of the lady on the internet. Friends, If you are also struggling with Herpes disease you can as well Contact him via Email: drinibokuspelltemple@gmail.com <drinibokuherbalhome@gmail.com or message him on via whatsApp at +2347059186346 or visit page https://www.facebook.com/driniboku/

    Setrap Chen is a wrathful protector deity in Tibetan Buddhism, particularly revered in the Gelugpa tradition. Setrap is believed to be an emanation of Amitabha Buddha and is known for his fierce and powerful appearance. Setrap’s wisdom is unmatched. He sees through the illusion of samsara and knows the best ways to help us .
    Even Though this is an old post , happy for Liew & family that have purchased a stunning Setrap statue from Kechara Paradise outlet.

    Mount Emei, built in the 1st century CE, is a 3,099-metre-tall mountain in Sichuan Province, China. It is the highest of the Four Sacred Buddhist Mountains of China an area of great cultural significance. That’s where Buddhism first became established on Chinese territory and from where it spread widely through the East . Worth visiting this UNESCO World Heritage Site a scenic mountain area which includes over 70 temples, monasteries, and attractions. Emei Shan said to be inhabited since 10,000 years ago according to historians. Visited this awesome mountain years back, seeing it for myself those ancient Buddhist architecture on Emei shan.

    Sasquatch, also known as Bigfoot, is a legendary creature said to inhabit forests, mostly found in the Pacific Northwest region of North America. As described by eye witnesses as a large, hairy, humanoid creature, often reported as being taller than the average human, and covered in dark hair. While many believe in its existence, but there’s no definitive scientific proof. Bigfoot is a figure deeply embedded in the folklore of North America. Despite numerous reports and alleged evidence, there is no conclusive scientific proof of Sasquatch’s existence. Many sightings of these hairy creatures yet no one ever getting close to it . Tibetan high lamas have reported seeing Yetis or bigfoots. Never been doubt these extraordinary creatures do exist as Tibetans, Nepalese, and others believed. Interesting .
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this.

    One of China’s most capable rulers, Kangxi who laid the foundation for a long period of political stability and prosperity. Emperor Kangxi was the second and longest reigning emperor of China’s Qing Dynasty whom had instrumented in developing China. From ancient times, blessed manifestations have taken place at Wu Tai Shan. Kangxi sponsored many literary works, monasteries, monks and teachers all over China, Tibet and he was considered extremely modern for his day as he also gave religious freedom to all religions. Many emperors considered Wutaishan as a special place, and built many temples. It is associated with Manjushri and is one of the four sacred mountains of China. It is also one of the five Buddhist blessed places on earth. Wutaishan holds a very special place in the more than 1,000 years of Buddhist and Chinese history. Manjushri embodies the perfect wisdom of the universe. China is considered to be the Land of Manjushri where the people are blessed with intelligence. Many of the historical and miraculous stories of Wutaishan are recorded in history. From the Ming Dynasty until modern times, magical manifestations have continued to be reported in Wutaishan. Emperor Kangxi was known to be a great patron of the Buddhadharma and had visited Wu Tai Shan and its Gelug temples a number of times . Great masters believed Emperor Kangxi to be the reincarnation of Tulku Drakpa Gyaltsen and an emanation of Manjushri, which has been confirmed by many others. Interesting read indeed, would love to visit this holy place again.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Ani for this great sharing.\\

    Venerable Geshe Lobsang Sopa is an incredible monk with a reputation of being sincere, fiercely devoted to his Gurus and extremely principle. Outspoken known to be very kind, spiritual and be a loyal to the Gelugpa lineage involving efforts to end the Dorje Shugden conflict. He has quietly accomplished virtuous works from building monasteries to serving the highest of lamas. It was a great privilege for writers team to interview Geshe-la during his visit at Kechara Forest Retreat sharing his experiences.

    Documentaries on these mysterious UFO, native Indian lore, ghosts, or unseen beings stories are some of my interests. Reading and watching the videos again as just simply incredible. Same time recorded images of UFO were captured at Mexico. Several sightings were seen by many eye witnesses including pilots, bus drivers and school children then over the years at Mexico. Some even captured it in videos , those sighting could not by explained by many.There’s one even tried to communicate with them as what she said is UFO. She took a number of photos with 3 different cameras to proof what she saw in the sky. Amazing the Dorthy had then attracted many UFO enthusiasm with her 3 thousands pictures. All these mysterious UFO sighting cannot be explained and solved.
    Interesting, thank you Rinpoche for sharing.

    The Guru Yoga of Lama Tsongkhapa is a very powerful practice, combination of Manjushri, Chenrezig and Vajrapani. We are so fortunate to receive this sacred practice from H E Tsem Rinpoche. Je Rinpoche is an emanation of Manjushri, Avalokitesvara and Vajrapani together, also an emanation of Maitreya Buddha. As explained clearly in this post we should practice as how busy we are. Ever since I started this Guru Yoga of Lama Tsongkhapa practice , my life changed ….having a calm mind , will never gave up. Its such an amazing practice for every one.
    Thank you Rinpoche with folded hands.

    Revisit this post again. A group of Kecharians had made extensive offerings to HH Kyabje Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche and updated all activities at Kechara Forest Retreat. Even brought a photo album of Kechara’s departments . That’s awesome. Kyabje Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche received offerings from Beng Kooi on behalf of HE Tsem Rinpoche. In return Kyabje Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche offered a stunning blessed Amitayus as shown in the blog for HE Tsem Rinpoche. Our individual samaya to our gurus is very important. Our Guru H E Tsem Rinpoche previous incarnations had close connections with Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche. It’s about maintaining a pure and respectful relationship with the guru and diligently following their instructions. The greatness of a Guru cannot be expressed in words. Let no man in the world live in delusion. Without a Guru none can cross over to the other shore.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing.

    For traditional Tibetan Buddhists, acceptance of and relationship with unseen beings is essential to living a full and successful human life.Relating to unseen beings, whether divine, or spiritual, is considered important across many cultures and belief systems for various reasons. Different cultures have their own belief .This connection can foster a more meaningful and fulfilling life by acknowledging the unseen dimensions of reality and their potential influence on our lives. Many believe that unseen beings like a spirit guides, whom might offer guidance, protection, and support in navigating life’s challenges. Connecting with the unseen realm can lead to a deeper understanding of oneself. Some find that engaging with the unseen world provides a sense of meaning and purpose in life depending to how they could accept. Many cultures have rich traditions and stories surrounding unseen beings. They play a significant role in Tibetan Buddhist practice, influencing both personal well-being and the wider world. Practitioners actively engage with these beings through various rituals, prayers, offerings, and visualizations. These interactions aim to establish positive relationships, seek guidance. The concept of unseen beings has practical implications in Tibetan medicine.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Professor Reginald Ray for sharing this

    Doing Dharma work and Dharma practice actively engaging with Buddhist teachings in daily life helps us to cultivate wisdom and compassion, ultimately aiming for liberation from suffering. The purpose of Dharma practice is to enable us to attain permanent liberation from lower rebirth. Practicing and putting into action helps to purify the mind and one’s conduct should be the conduct of a pure mind. We have to chase and transform those ordinary actions of our day into dharma practice. Well its important applying Buddhist principles to all aspects of life, from work and relationships to thoughts and actions. All depends on our own efforts to learn, practice, our diligence, our deeper knowing, and our correct motivation.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    God bless Dr Osalu for his marvelous work in my life, I was diagnosed of HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS since 2019 and I was taking my medications, I wasn’t satisfied i needed to get the herpes out of my system, I searched about some possible cure for herpes i saw a comment about Dr Osalu, how he cured herpes with his herbal medicine, I contacted him and he guided me. I asked for solutions, he started the remedy for my health, he sent me the medicine within 3days. I took the medicine as prescribed by him and 2weeks later I was cured from herpes. Contact him via email: drosaluherbalhome@gmail.com WhatApp +2348078668950

The Unknown

The Known and unknown are both feared,
Known is being comfortable and stagnant,
The unknown may be growth and opportunities,
One shall never know if one fears the unknown more than the known.
Who says the unknown would be worse than the known?
But then again, the unknown is sometimes worse than the known. In the end nothing is known unless we endeavour,
So go pursue all the way with the unknown,
because all unknown with familiarity becomes the known.
~Tsem Rinpoche

    8 years ago
    What the meat industry figured out is that you don't need healthy animals to make a profit.
    Sick animals are more profitable... farms calculate how close to death they can keep animals without killing them. That's the business model. How quickly they can be made to grow, how tightly they can be packed, how much or how little can they eat, how sick they can get without dying... We live in a world in which it's conventional to treat an animal like a block of wood. ~ Jonathan Safran Foer
