The Wind Carries Him to the Pavilion of Prince Teng
Auspicious
The poem
Original: 梧桐叶落秋将暮 / 行客归程去似云 / 谢得天公高着力 / 顺风船载宝珍归
The story
When the Pavilion of Prince Teng at Nanchang was rebuilt, the young Wang Bo wanted to attend the opening but lived seven hundred li away. A river god promised him a sail in a dream; waking, he found a boat at the bank and reached the pavilion overnight. There he wrote the Preface to the Pavilion of Prince Teng, which has been famous ever since.
What it means
The image is falling wutong leaves, and the sign runs from bad to good. The opening is bleak, with autumn ending and everything thinning out, and then the journey home moves as fast as cloud. Heaven lends its strength quietly, and the ship comes back loaded. What was overlooked, slow and unpromising at the start turns out to have been arranging the meeting that makes you. What you have set your heart on, heaven will go along with; act, and act freely.
By area of life
Wealth
Something is quietly guiding this. Investment goes as you intend and returns a profit, so take hold of the favourable wind.
Love
The match comes together. Heaven seems to know what you want, and the two of you are brought quietly into the same place.
Work
Help is working behind the scenes throughout. The business runs smoothly, and even a bad stretch resolves itself quite unexpectedly.
Health
An effective medicine or an unusually good recovery is possible. The turn is close, and there is no cause for anxiety.
Travel
There are minor obstacles, but the journey is favoured all the same. Set out rather than waiting for perfect conditions.
Advice
When the fair wind comes, board the ship instead of watching the leaves fall.
