Mystic Window
The energy of unusual things is present. Now is not the time to be sedate or listless. Instead, seize the moment and find unique paths to walk. Move forward "without hurry and without worry."
Stay calm even in the face of difficulty.
Poem — Sifu John A. Fey
Waves of rolling thunder
Call men to immediate action, Splitting bamboo and wood While embracing the dragon.

Alchemic Wisdom — Yao Tsi (Line Verses)
Line 1
A sudden clap of thunder
Startles and surprises.
It clears and loosens the spirit.
It ushers in ease and longevity.
Words flow easily into the silent night.
Abundance abounds.
Line 2
Thunder brings shaking and the sounds of danger.
Rest the heartmind in silence and solitude.
Embrace the Qi of openness and surrender.Walk slowly through the Nine Palaces And you will find contentment in seven days.
Line 3
The sounds of danger make you nervous.
Proceed even if your strength is bravado.
Everything will be fine.
Line 4
Thunder confuses the heartmind.
Wait until the heartmind clears
Before moving on.
Line 5
Be brave as the danger comes and goes.
Even now things can move forward.
Line 6
A murder of crows frames the sounds of thunder.
Clear the channels by looking left and right.
Gather the Qi.
Still the bodymind must not move forward.
To move will bring calamity. To
