Mystic Window
Look for an opporlunity to correct the mistakes of your forbearers. These could be blood ancestors or previous people who used to hold your position. Now is not the time to show weakness or hesitancy of any kind. Be direct, firm, and analytical as you work silently for the common good.
Alchemic Wisdom
Poem — Sifu John A. Fey
Mountains contain invisible winds
Nourishing sleeping dragons not yet full grown
While wizards above search for an antidote To poison with poisons.
Urn, Venom, Strength, Three, Potion, Remedy, Worm
Alchemic Wisdom — Yao Tsi (Line Verses)
Line 1
The father's business, fraught with confusion,
Confronts the son with poisonous Qi.
Clear the vision
And no error will occur.
Things now dangerous
Will evolve to good fortune.
Line 2
The mother's business, fraught with confusion,
Presents poisonous Qi.
It blocks the soul
From making itself known.
Seek the middle place.
Line 3
The father's business, fraught with confusion,
Presents poisonous Qi.
The small-minded have much sadness
But, there is no great error.
Seek the lower place
Line 4
The father's poisonous Qi is condensed And moves forward to a regrettable end.
Anchor yourself and gather vitality.
Line 5
The father's poisonous Qi is transformed.
Uttering the sounds of passing
And great change,
Raises vitality.
Line 6
A simple man's efforts
Transform the flawed work of kings and rulers
Into authentic expressions,
Which elevate and raise the spirit.
Stand alone.
