Fortune

志気勤修業

禄位未造逢

若聞金鶏語

乗船得便風

In English

  • With high spirits you work at your craft
  • but rank and reward have yet to arrive
  • if you hear the golden rooster call
  • board the boat and catch a fair wind
Meaning
Hear the golden rooster call the dawn, the poem says, and your boat will catch a fair wind. Effort has not yet brought its reward, so keeping your preparations going until that signal comes seems to be the way.
What to do today
When you wake up, choose just one thing you want to move forward on.
A word from the capybara
Until the rooster crows, a little more sleep is perfectly fine.

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