Earth God Shrine · Lot 1Excellent
一方土地保平安家宅安宁老少欢灶暖床温灯火亲和和美美是丰年
What it means: The house is calm. Harmony brings the luck.
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
The household is settled and everyone is well. Sit down to eat together, speak warmly — that harmony is the real fortune. This is a year to stay put rather than move.
The Earth God looks after one patch of ground. His lots always come back to harmony.
How to read this grade
Excellent is the highest of the four bands, and the rarest. It means the timing, the people around you and your own frame of mind all line up. It does not guarantee an outcome — it says this road has little resistance and is worth walking to the end.
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 Earth God Shrine, 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.
