According to Chinese Astrology, 1913 is the Year of the Ox and it is the Water element. Based on the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, those born in 1913 are Oxs. The Chinese Ox year repeats every 12 years. According to the Chinese lunar calendar, those born between 6 February 1913 and 25 January 1914 are considered born in the Chinese year 1913 and are a Ox sign. In addition, each Ox year is also represented by 5 elements in Chinese astrology that express character and behavior. Therefore, each year it is referred to with a different zodiac animal name and a different element name, and this repeats only once in 60 years. 1913 is also known as the Year of the Water Ox. Each zodiac sign is also associated with a negative/positive expression according to the Yin Yang philosophy. The year 1913 is Yin (-) according to the Chinese calendar.
