The 12 animals of the Chinese calendar recur every 12 years. The last Year of the Ox was 2009. Therefore, the next Year of the Ox will be 2009 + 12 = 2021.

Each animal of the zodiac is also associated with an element: wood, fire, earth, metal, or water. In a 60-year cycle each animal occurs 5 times, once for each of the elements. In 2009, the animal was the earth ox; in 2021 it will be the metal ox. The earth ox will not return until 2009 + 60 = 2069.
