The global interpretation for this lot

Average

1. Translation from the ancient Chinese text

My counsel to you is honest and plain, bear it in mind. Pursuit of trade in other lands is not your lot. There is no better way to choose. Remaining unchanged and in peace is the best course for you. Be satisfied and content with your lot. For there is no better place to go, if you attempt to make a further move; no blessing but misfortune will result.

No change of residence is recommended so stay where you are. The sick are not to be cured. You have no hope of regaining things lost. You are strongly recommended to make changes to your ancestral graves.
