The origin of the zodiac ox

The ox is in the second place in the Zodiac , and the twelve lands are dominated by "Chou", 1-3 in the morning (ie "Chou Shi"). At this time, the cow has eaten enough grass, the "chewing" is the finest and most comfortable, so the ugly time is matched with the cow, so the "ugly time" in the twelve o'clock of the day-the "cow time" from one to three o'clock in the night. The hexagram of Yi is "Kun is the son and the cow".

In ancient times, the cow was the guard in front of the Jade Emperor Palace, often traveling between the heavenly palace and the earth. One day, the farmer entrusted a cow to send a message to the Jade Emperor, saying that there is no grass in the world, and the earth is bare and too ugly. He asked the Jade Emperor to bring some mother grass seeds to the world to make the world look better. The Jade Emperor heard it and felt that it made sense, so he asked his Highness who would like to plant grass seeds in the world.

"Jade Emperor, I would like to sow grass seeds in the world." Niu Wang volunteered.

"You are a careless guy, I'm afraid you can't." The Jade Emperor said worriedly.

"Jade Emperor don't worry, I can't handle this little thing, and I'm willing to be punished." Niu Wang insisted on going.

The Jade Emperor agreed to the request of the Niu King, and ordered the Niu King to take three steps to spread a handful of grass seeds after he came to the world.

The Niu King took the grass seeds and walked out of the Heavenly Palace. When he stepped out of the South Heaven Gate, he accidentally stumbled. After enclosing the world, his head was dizzy, and he mistakenly thought that the Jade Emperor’s decree was to take a step and sow three grass seeds. . So, a lot of grass seeds were scattered on the ground.

In the second year, weeds were overgrown, and the farmer could not grow crops at all.

They asked the kitchen god to tell the Jade Emperor that there were too many weeds and crops could not grow. The Jade Emperor knew what was bad, and he summoned the King Niu to ask a question before he knew that the careless King Niu was sowing three handfuls of grass seeds in one step, and he had done a good thing.

"You careless old cow made grass everywhere in the world. How did you guarantee that? From now on, you and your children and grandchildren are only allowed to eat the grass and help the farmer weed. At the same time, your ancestors have been helping the farmer to work for generations. Er." After the Jade Emperor finished speaking, his anger was not quenched, and he flew up and kicked at the old bull. The bull king fell from the sky to the earth with a somersault, his mouth was down, and a row of upper teeth was thrown off. As a result, the cow has been working as a coolie for the farmer all his life, and people have not stopped gnawing the grass. To this day, its upper teeth have not grown out.

However, the cow is a good animal that knows the past and changes quickly. It is hardworking, diligent and practical. It never loosens the cart to plow the field. It has done a lot of work for the farmers and won the praise of people. When arranging the zodiac, people always recommend him as the zodiac. If it weren't for the speculative little mouse hiding in the horns of the ox and getting the first name first, the ox king would definitely become the leader of the zodiac. The cow became the zodiac of mankind based on his contribution to mankind. (Chinese Zodiac http:///shengxiao/)

A cow is a quiet, strong moral and dignified person, and never wants to achieve goals by unfair means. Cattle are self-reliant and don't like others to help, so that others have to beg for cattle to accept other people's services. Some people will unfairly criticize the cattle for lack of imagination. In fact, the indomitable character and logical mind of the cattle are concealed by a simple but neat appearance; cleverness and dexterity are concealed by taciturn and reserved. Although the bull is basically an introvert, your strong nature makes you a majestic and eloquent speaker when opportunities come. In times of chaos, the cattle are not afraid of danger, not afraid of intimidation, and natural self-confidence, which will restore order to everything. The cow sign symbolizes success through hard work. The cow is a patient and tireless worker, you don't want to take shortcuts. but. You should still always remind yourself to be cautious and not to be overwhelmed by victory.
