Success comes through this. The shock strikes and everyone trembles in alarm, then laughter and easy chatter follow right after. Even though the tremor is felt for a hundred miles around, the ceremony continues without the sacred vessel being dropped.
Initial Nine: The shock hits and everyone startles in alarm -- but the laughter and easy talk that follow right after bring good fortune.
Six in the second: The shock arrives with real danger -- vast wealth is lost, and you're forced to climb to the highest ground for safety. Don't chase after what's gone; within a full cycle of days, it comes back on its own.
Six in the third: The shock leaves you shaken and unsteady -- but if that jolt actually moves you to act, no real harm follows.
Nine in the fourth: The shock lands, but gets swallowed up in the mud -- nothing moves.
Six in the fifth: Shocks keep arriving from every direction, and the danger is real -- yet nothing essential actually gets lost, and the necessary work still has to continue.
Six at the top: So rattled by the shock that you can barely stand still, eyes darting everywhere -- pressing forward now brings misfortune. If the blow lands on your neighbor before it reaches you, there's nothing to fault in taking the warning; though people close to you will have plenty to say about it.
