The history behind Guan Yin lots →

Sickness and strife need not alarm you now,
Riches lie scattered, yours to gather in.
Like a monkey slipping free of its golden chain,
It wanders home to the mountain cave again.

眼前病讼不须忧
满地资财尽可求
恰似猿猴金锁脱
自归山洞去来悠

Once present worries are overcome, little stands beyond your reach. Patience earns its reward, and the road ahead opens toward success.

This lot signals that present troubles, illness, disputes, or money worries, are already loosening their grip, and relief is close at hand. Like a captive creature finally freed, you are about to return to ease and natural movement.

Home life feels unsettled even though your own footing is stable and secure. Wealth is within reach, but a business deal needs the right moment rather than haste, and marriage plans have not come together yet. Pray for a safe pregnancy and delivery. A traveler reaches their destination, farming flourishes while livestock stays steady, and a missing person returns on their own. A lost item is found, but far from home. A lawsuit reaches a fair outcome, house moves go smoothly, illness lingers rather than improves, and the ancestral graves are well blessed.

There is a particular relief in watching a knot untie itself after you stop pulling at it so hard. This lot points to that quiet unclenching, the moment worry finally loses its grip on the mind. Rather than rushing to claim the good news, notice what it felt like to be bound, and let that memory soften how you meet the next difficulty. Ease, when it comes, deserves gratitude more than grasping.
