Fortune No.60
Poem (The Oracle's Verse)
抱薪救火火增煙,燒卻三千及大千,若問營謀並出入,不如收拾莫憂燃
If you save the fire by holding the wood, the fire will increase and the smoke will increase. Three thousand and a thousand and a thousand will be consumed. If you question the activities of others, their plans, their comings and goings, put them away and do not worry about the spreading of the fire.

Interpretation (Meaning of the Oracle)
總有千般,一旦皆休,安心守舊,維得無憂。此籤抱薪救火之象,凡事守舊則吉。
This lot is the "save the fire by holding the firewood" elephant, and all things are good if you observe the old ways. If you try to extinguish the fire by holding firewood, the fire will naturally smoke more, and bad omens will be compounded by bad circumstances. Therefore, if you are going to start something and make it happen, you must always protect the old. Never be proud of your temporary valor, look at the successes of others, and do not act rashly. There is a risk that great harm will come to you. Not only will it not work, it will destroy you, and you will lose more than you gain. I say to you, "Rest for the moment, even if you have a thousand things to say. If you keep your mind at rest and observe the old ways, you will be free from worry.

Explanation
[Summary] Control your emotions and remain calm. If you make decisions calmly, you can prevent mistakes.
This lot has the meaning of "mind floating mania". It encourages the person involved to remain as calm as possible. Excessive emotional reactions can cause a person to lose the basic ability to analyze things. When one is not calm, one's judgment is prone to error and can lead to uncontrollable situations. When you are faced with a situation of great joy, great sorrow, or great anger, do not react immediately, but first calm yourself down and return your emotions to a normal level. Only after your mind is at peace can you concentrate and think, and only after careful and repeated examination and verification can you make a correct and rational decision. Do not rush forward impulsively, but be prudent, so that your joy will not turn to sorrow and your regret will not reach you.
Practical Advice for Modern Life
Liu Bei’s linked camps warn of expanding action through anger. Do not message, post, or approve decisions while hurt. For major problems, wait overnight and ask someone trustworthy to review them to prevent irreversible mistakes.
Recommended Deity & Prayer Advice
