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.
