Future fortune

家道生荊棘

児孫防虎威

香前祈福厚

方得免分離

In English

  • Thorns spring up along the family's path
  • shield the children from the tiger's might
  • pray before the incense for ample blessing
  • and you may yet avoid being parted
Meaning
Sincere prayer before the incense is what keeps the family from being split apart. When thorns spring up along the household path, caring for the people closest to you and waiting for things to settle seems the wiser course.
What to do today
Send a short message to a family member or someone close to you.
A word from the capybara
Steer clear of the thorny path and walk where the grass is soft.
