Three questions to ask yourself

  1. “崔巍崔巍復崔巍” — if this line were a painting, where would you be standing in it?
  2. “履險如夷去復來” — what is harder to let go of here: the outcome, or the process?
  3. “長安一道放春回” — what is the smallest thing you could do for it today?

About this set

A folk collection of fortune-stick poems named after Guan Yu, the Three Kingdoms general; this site only explains the text. 100 in all. The four-line verses often speak of timing, advancing and holding back. Grades range from 大吉 (very auspicious) to 下下 (lowest).
