Mystic Window
The energy of a developing situation has exhausted itself. Now is the time to stop and celebrate your accomplishments even if your achievement is only a small one. Moving forward at this time will only bring misfortune and bad luck. Expect delays, but don't worry about them.
Poem — Sifu John A. Fey
The sounds of thunder over the lake
Reveal a sun threatened and obscured by clouds.
The procession must stop, hold its ground, And celebrate where they stand.

Alchemic Wisdom — Yao Tsi (Line Verses)
1. Accept a lesser role and
Embrace the Qi of assisting
Rather than of leading.
Sometimes,
Only a blind man can see the truth.
Be blind;
Consult the soul.
Accept a position of partial leadership.
Embrace the Qi of co-operation
Rather than of contention.
Now is the time to Embrace patient Qi
And wait to see what happens naturally.
Everything has its own time of ripening.
Look to the Yin moon
For wisdom and contentment.
Absorb the moon essence.
Absorb the moon spirit.
An offering already burnt
Will bring no abundance.
A barren womb
Will produce no children.
These are inauspicious times.
