60th Cim – Guihai – of the Water Element favoring Winter – The North is blessed

The rays of the moon were once pure white,

But once blocked the sun it loses its color,

Those at home should look to charity,

While those in office must provide justice to obtain fortune.

Intepretation:

When the moon comes out, its rays were initially pure white. However, once blocked by the clouds it will lose its pure color. Those at home should focus their mind on charities while those in office must carry out their duties fairly to receive benefits. This cim tells the recipients that most undertakings do not produce the expected results. Even the pure white moon may sometimes be blocked by a dark cloud. But the moon does not feel unjust when blocked. Instead, focus on performing charities and refining your soul, for once the dark cloud retreats, the light will be even brighter and beauteous to behold.
