The Eagle Beneath the Cliff
觀音靈籤第6签
The history behind Guan Yin lots →Beneath the cliff the great eagle makes its home,
Yet keeps, even there, a hero's dauntless heart;
What it gathers by its quiet craft none else could win —
None roams between heaven and earth as this one does.
投身岩下雕鸟居
须是还他大丈夫
拾得营谋谁可得
通行天地此人无
Resources will be scarce, so learn to be content with a simple life. Be patient, enjoy what you already have, and let others chase wealth and power.
This lot speaks of modest means matched with a noble spirit: resources may be lean, but contentment and uprightness make the life rich. When better times come, the gains are meant to be shared.

Family life feels unsettled, though day-to-day matters stay stable. Business deals meet difficulties and marriage prospects are neither good nor bad. The traveler is close to home, a missing person or lost item is found, and the lawsuit resolves reasonably, but a sick person in the family faces a grave outcome.
A simple life held with dignity is often a freer life. Find sufficiency in what you already have, and keep generosity ready for the day your circumstances widen. What would change this week if you treated enough as enough?
