Meaning and Interpretation
🐂 This big guy is way more than just farm animal vibes. Sure, you can use it for actual cows or ranches, but it's a power symbol. It's the ultimate emoji for saying someone is strong as an ox, working super hard, or just being stubborn AF and refusing to budge. It's also the main symbol for the Year of the Ox in the Chinese zodiac, so it's perfect for Lunar New Year wishes or calling someone a born leader with that strong, reliable energy. Basically, it's for flexing your strength, celebrating determination, or just admitting you're a total Taurus (or Ox).
