Explanation
[Summary] Steady efforts and humility create trust. If you cherish your close relationships, collaborators will appear and you will succeed.
This lot means 'rest-relationships'. Do not disregard familiar human resources and relationships. By treating people with sincerity and courtesy, you will gain their trust, and collaborators will appear. If you accumulate steady efforts and a humble attitude, fame and achievement will naturally follow.
Practical Advice for Modern Life
Like King Zhao of Yan building the Golden Terrace to welcome talent, good helpers appear where respect is shown. Before expanding your network, create conditions where others feel safe helping you. Gratitude for introductions and remembering what someone says invite luck.
Recommended Deity & Prayer Advice
Pray to Guan Sheng Dijun for relationships of cooperation based on trust. Instead of seeking profit alone, state your resolve to honor promises and courtesy.
