The Oracle Poem · 籤詩
灘小石溪流水響風清明月貴人忙路須借問何方去莫取林中花草香

The stream is shallow, water sounds over the stones;
under clear wind and bright moon, helpers are busy.
On the road, ask which way to go;
do not be tempted by the fragrance of wild flowers.

English rendering: our editorial version.

Meaning

Progress with help, as long as you ask for directions and avoid distractions.

Traditional text

詩意:此卦船行小灘之象。凡事有貴人助也。

解曰:營謀用事。勞心費力。守舊待時。凡事大吉。

另本 Variant:澗小石粗流水響,力勞撐駕恐損傷,路須指出前江去,風靜潮平儘不妨。

祿山謀反
The Story Behind the Lot · 典故

An Lushan Rebels

Emperor Xuanzong ignored warnings about An Lushan, executed his best generals and forced a fatal battle that the defenders had wanted to avoid. Had he listened, the rebellion might have been contained. The river is rough; the pilot must be heeded.
