Li Bai Drunkenly Grasps the Moon太白醉撈明月
Catching the moon in the water takes great effort;
after all the effort, there is nothing there.
Do not speak idle or confused words;
wasting heart and strength only wears you down.
English rendering: our editorial version.
Chasing an illusion. Redirect your effort to what is real.
詩意：此卦貪求費力之象。凡事勞心費力也。
解曰：言諾難思。費力勞心。宅中憂慮。等遇貴人。
另本 Variant：水中捉月費工夫，費盡功夫卻又無，莫信閑言併浪論，枉拋心力也難圖。
Li Bai Drunkenly Grasps the Moon
The poet Li Bai, drunk on a boat under the full moon, saw its reflection on the river and leaned out to embrace it. He fell in and drowned.
A connection that is more reflection than reality. Avoid chasing it.
Breakthroughs are unlikely; projects may start strong and fade. Lower expectations.
This lot invites care with money: avoid investing on hopes. Risky bets can cost the principal. Treat money moves as personal judgement, not a prediction.
This lot invites gentle attention to wellbeing: rest and avoid overwork; your nerves need quiet. This is reflection, not a diagnosis.
Worries at home. Avoid building work for now.
Difficult news. Avoid risky journeys, especially by water.
Probably lost. Avoid chasing it.
This lot invites patience with disputes: it will likely end in settlement anyway. Stop the losses early. A qualified adviser beats any oracle for binding matters.
