Fortune

臘木春将至

芳菲喜再新

鯤鯨興巨浪

挙鉤禄為真

In English

  • Spring is about to reach the winter trees
  • fragrant blossoms gladly open anew
  • the great fish stirs up mighty waves
  • lift the hook and the reward is real
Meaning
Everything hangs on the hook in the last line. Spring is reaching the winter trees and a great fish is stirring the waves, so when you finally lift your line, the catch is real, and what you have waited for can now take shape.
What to do today
Open the notes for a plan you shelved and add one line about the next step.
A word from the capybara
Dozed off with the fishing line still dangling in the water.

The explanations added by each temple differ. The poems and fortunes follow an Edo-period printed edition.
