Lady Su Flees Disaster蘇娘走難
Rushing on, blocked again and again by danger,
dragging through water and mud to cross the hills.
Hoping to find work in a distant land,
a thousand miles away, you do not return.
English rendering: our editorial version.
Restless striving brings hardship. Staying with what you know is wiser for now.
詩意：此卦拖泥帶水之象。凡事守舊則吉也。
解曰：退身可得。進步為難。只宜守舊。莫望高攀。
另本 Variant：奔波役役重重險，帶水拖泥又渡山，更慮他方求別用，千山萬水未能還。
Lady Su Flees Disaster
Queen Su Ying was so favoured that even her parrot answered her cleverly. A jealous consort framed her, and overnight she became a fugitive. She fled from place to place and finally gave birth to the crown prince in a temple.
Long-distance hopes or moves for love are difficult now. Let tensions settle before deciding.
You might hold off on switching jobs; a hurried move may not improve what feels stuck. Finish what is in front of you.
This lot invites care with money: spring and summer are thin; autumn and winter improve. Avoid long-shot ventures. Treat money moves as personal judgement, not a prediction.
This lot invites gentle attention to wellbeing: lingering complaints need patient, consistent care. This is reflection, not a diagnosis.
Unresolved household matters need attention. Stay close to home and calm.
Journeys meet delays. Those away are held up.
Recovery looks uncertain; putting energy into a replacement may serve you better than a long search.
The other side holds the stronger case. Look for an exit rather than a verdict. For binding disputes, a qualified adviser is wiser than any oracle.
