Fortune No.57

Poem (The Oracle's Verse)

聞是聞非風過耳,好衣好祿日當空,君須記取他年事,汝意還同我意同
Listen to the pros and cons like the wind that blows past your ears. Good clothes and a good stipend are as the sun is in the middle of the sky. Remember what happened that year. Your will is the same as mine.

Interpretation (Meaning of the Oracle)

選用謀望,皆大吉昌,從心懇切,如子見娘。此籤好子見娘之象,凡事遇貴則吉。

If you win the lottery, you will receive the support of the nobleman, and after the cooperation, the lottery will be fulfilled. When one person chants, a hundred people will agree with him. This is the time to be prosperous, as when the sun is in the sky. All your choices and plans will be in the best interest of all. If you are kind from the heart, it will be like a child meeting his mother.

Explanation

[Summary] Be resourceful and seize opportunities. Flexible thinking and action are the keys to success.
This lot has a "resourceful" meaning. It encourages the parties involved to be proactive and exert their power. Those who know how to be resourceful will make timely use of even the most obscure and intimate things to successfully enhance their reputation. Opportunities must be seized because many opportunities pass in the blink of an eye. Even if it seems hopeless, it is worth a try, and perhaps you will succeed in one fell swoop. In terms of ourselves, we must not be too judgmental or pessimistic. We need to adjust our attitude moderately according to the environment and personnel. Be willing to try, but avoid being stubborn and unchanging.

Practical Advice for Modern Life

Ning Qi striking the ox horn and seizing opportunity shows that unexpected self-expression can open a path. Do not be overly reserved; make your strengths visible. A word in a meeting, a published work, or honest affection may reach the person waiting.

Recommended Deity & Prayer Advice

Pray to Guan Sheng Dijun for courage to step forward when opportunity appears. Ask with the intention to offer useful ability, not to boast.
