Aries Ox - The Four Challenges
The Most Challenging Matches in the Western and Chinese Zodiacs

Four Challenges Matches

  • The combative yet growth-oriented Square Western matches of Aries /Cancer and Aries /Capricorn.

  • The confrontational and attention-grabbing Opposition Chinese match of Ox and Sheep.
