Guan Yin lot 90 of 100
News and a laden ship
Highest (上上). Grade from the related Goodfate edition. Grades differ between temples, and many Taiwanese temples print none.
忽朝一信天下墀
寶貝船裝滿載歸
若問前程成底事
始終應得貴人提
One morning a message reaches the steps below heaven.
The ship comes home, filled to the rail with treasure.
If you ask what your road will come to,
You should have a noble friend's help, first to last.
What this lot says
A single piece of news arrives, and a loaded ship follows it home. The verse moves quickly from waiting to plenty, and it credits that change to someone helping from start to finish.
The advice is to keep your relationships in good order. Long-term help usually goes to people others remember well.
If you are waiting to hear about a role or a contract, stay in touch with the people who have backed you and tell them how things stand. When the answer comes, credit them openly.
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
