year of the Ox

Japanese Here

If you get some New-Year postcards from your Japanese frends in 2009, you may find some pictures of ox on them. They are featured the Chinese zodiac sign of the Ox, because 2009 is a year of the ox. And year of the ox is the second year of the 12 years in the Chinese astrological calendar.
