蟾宮月殿桂飄香
玉篋團圓萬里光
六水三山歸鏡裏
無瑕一片掛窮蒼
In the Toad Palace and the Moon Hall, the cassia scent drifts.
The jade case is round and whole, its light reaching ten thousand miles.
Six waters and three mountains come back into the mirror.
One flawless piece hangs across the far blue sky.
What this lot says
The moon seen as a palace, whole and without flaw. Everything in the verse is full and bright.
It is graded highest. Read it as a picture of completeness, and as a prompt to notice what is already whole in your own situation.
A lot is a prompt for reflection. It cannot promise a result, and it is no substitute for medical, legal or financial advice.
