January 26 begins the year 4707 in the Chinese calendar.
It's the year of the ox. I'm an ox. Therefore, it's MY year.
If you were born in one of these years, you too are an Ox, and I'll share my year with you: 1901, 1913, 1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009
The new year promises growth, stability and accomplishment.
Here is some more information I found:
Legend has it that in ancient times, Buddha asked all the animals to meet him on Chinese New Year. Twelve came, and Buddha named a year after each one. He announced that the people born in each animal's year would have some of that animal's personality.
Those born in ox years tend to be painters, engineers, and architects. They are stable, fearless, obstinate, hard-working and friendly. Jack Nicholson, Jane Fonda, Walt Disney, and Anthony Hopkins were all born in the year of the ox.
