天地交泰萬物新
自形自色自怡神
森羅萬象皆精彩
事事和諧得稱人
Heaven and earth meet in peace, and all things are new.
Each in its own shape and color, glad in itself.
The whole array of creation shines.
All things agree, and people are content.
What this lot says
Heaven and earth meet and everything is renewed. Each creature keeps its own shape and color, and each is content in it. The picture is of spring, when a thousand different things thrive at once.
The verse finds harmony in variety, with nothing forced to look like anything else. It advises you to let people and things be what they are.
If you are running a team or settling into a new household, this is a good lot for making room for different habits and strengths. Set the common goal, leave others free in how they reach it, and enjoy the season while it lasts.
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
Sun Wukong attains the Way (行者得道)
In the classic Chinese novel of the pilgrimage to India for Buddhist scriptures, the fictional monkey Sun Wukong is made the Victorious Fighting Buddha at the end of the road. It suits a lot about everything coming right.
