Guan Yin lot 20 of 100

Clear sky after spring rain

Favourable (中吉). Grade from the related Goodfate edition. Grades differ between temples, and many Taiwanese temples print none.

當春久雨喜初晴

玉兔金烏漸漸明

舊事已成新事遂

看看一跳入蓬瀛

After long spring rain, the joy of the first clear sky.

Jade hare and golden crow grow slowly bright.

Old business is finished, new business goes well.

Before long, one leap and you are in the islands of the immortals.

What this lot says

Long spring rain finally stops, and the sun and moon grow bright again. Old business is finished and new business moves ahead, and the last line leaps to the islands of the immortals.

The verse favors a clean transition. It pairs a finished old matter with a new one going well.

If you are wrapping up one role before starting another, or closing one chapter of a relationship, finish the loose ends first. Send the final report and return what you borrowed. Then, when the weather clears, move without delay.

A lot is a prompt for reflection. It cannot promise a result, and it is no substitute for medical, legal or financial advice.

The story behind it

Jiang Taigong meets King Wen, and Su Wu returns to Han (姜太公遇文王、蘇武歸漢)

In the legend behind the first of these titles, Jiang Ziya, also called Jiang Taigong, was fishing on the Wei River in old age when King Wen of Zhou met him and brought him to court as a chief minister. A long wait that ends in a sudden meeting suits a verse about the first clear sky after rain.
