The Bird That Rushed Into the Net
觀音靈籤第98签
The history behind Guan Yin lots →In all your comings and goings, let your plans move slow,
Haste over trifling worries only lets more trouble grow.
Like a bird that rushes straight into a waiting snare,
Who can say how long it takes to fly free of there?
出入求谋事宜迟
急恐闲愁惹是非
如鸟飞入罗网内
脱困能有几多时
Wait for the right opening. Time itself will bring the good outcome. For now, patience and no sudden changes serve you best.
This lot warns against acting in haste on any matter. Rash movement now is compared to a bird flying straight into a waiting net, hard to escape once caught. It advises pausing all plans and waiting for a calmer, clearer time before moving forward.

Family life carries worry and suspicion right now, and some people around you turn unfriendly. Financial loss and failure are real risks, and a business deal here brings loss rather than gain. A marriage under consideration won't last, childbirth may prove difficult, and a traveler runs into trouble. Farming and livestock both bring loss, a missing person stays untraceable, a lost item is unlikely to return, and this lawsuit isn't winnable. Don't move house, illness here carries real danger, and the ancestral grave is bringing bad fortune.
Urgency has a way of making bad decisions feel necessary, when the wiser move is often simply to wait. This lot is a reminder that not every itch needs scratching right away, and that pausing before we act, especially when anxious, tends to save us from tangles that take a long time to work loose afterward. Stillness here is the discipline of choosing timing over impulse.
