Neither good nor bad. It depends on how you act.A time of rich harvest. Everything goes very smoothly.
Governing text · Dayou: Nine at the beginning
In plain wordsYou have not yet been touched by anything bad, so where would any fault come from? But you must still treat it as a hard matter and handle it with care; only then will you not go wrong.
- Now
- Like the sun shining in the sky: you possess a great deal, and things go through.
- The key
- Only one line is changing: Nine at the beginning. The answer is in that line. Neither good nor bad. Do your part, correct mistakes, and nothing will go wrong.
- Where it is heading
- Things are moving toward Ding (The Cauldron): A new order is being set up. Great good fortune.
- What to do
- When you have many resources, use them for the right ends, and help good people and good things succeed. The richer you are, the more modest you must be; only then can you keep it for long.
