门前车马往来频问利还须问自身盘点囊中余几许量入为出最安神
What it means: Get the accounts straight before you push forward.
The verse is kept in Chinese. It is a four-line regulated poem — rhyme and metre are part of the thing itself, and they do not survive translation. The reading below is written in English.
The reading
Plenty of traffic, not much of it landing in your pocket. Work out what you actually have, take on only what you can carry, and spend within it. Leave nothing vague in the books.
Wealth lots rarely promise a windfall. They talk about keeping, and about work.
How to read this grade
Fair is not a bad lot. It means even — no great tailwind, no wall. This band most often lands on doing the thing in front of you well and not changing roads yet.
All eighty lots are lines written for Hanlu Temple. They are here to help you put a question into words — no promise, and no medical, financial or legal advice.
Draw this lot in the hall
Walk to the Wealth Hall, sit down on a cushion and put your palms together. The tube of lots stands by the altar. A lot you drew in the same hall on the same day is remembered, so you can come back and read it again.
