The Image
Accept the world as it is. Think about your attitudes. Speak your Mind. Illuminate the skys.
The Inside
The Dragon thinks before it acts. Wait for the right moment, before you make your move. Supreme Good Fortune. Concentrate upon recovery, & save what you can after an unexpected setback. No blame. Do not over-react, when you have an easy victory. Be moderate while re-establishing order. Be fair. Retreat when necessary & regroup. Pay attention. Learn to enjoy the company of friends in difficult times. Good fortune. There is no blame in being friendly with your neighbors, if you mind your own business. Pay attention.
The Outside
It is wise to restrict the movement of disruptive influences. Get smart! The Dragon is patient. Cultivate the internal strength by developing a hidden talent. Good fortune. Do not make a Community hostile. Do not make yourself unwelcome by meddling in other people's business. Pay attention. Accept the truth. You cannot evade the results of mis-directed activity. Come clean & plead for mercy. There will be a transition of alliances. Learn something! Make certain that you really have things all together. Be careful. The situation is not what you thought it was, & it is time to change your plans. Misfortune.
