Snakes Entangled
Heaven-plate Ren over earth-plate Xin: Xin metal feeds Ren water while fault clings to the body — a snake coiling without release. Even auspicious doors bring no peace, and ventures meet deception at every turn; an ominous pattern.

Work is snared in trivia and personnel disputes, energy draining away inward, while someone cooperates on the surface and drags their feet in the dark. This is no time to run parallel projects: cut secondary tasks and focus on one main line. The fewer promises made to others, the better.
An image of money entangled: funds delayed, positions trapped, capital tied up in chain after chain, each round of collection uncovering another layer. Beware scams that pay old debts with new borrowing. Cut losses swiftly — better to exit at a discount than to throw in more money trying to get free.
The relationship is tangled beyond easy telling: old loves intruding, or a many-cornered involvement that resists explanation, promises woven together with lies. This pattern signifies being deceived — verify the other party's words through independent channels. A clean break benefits both sides; dragging on wounds both. Short pain beats long pain.
A chronic, clinging illness: neurasthenia, insomnia and troubled dreams, anxiety, and the urinary system predominate — sickness leaves as slowly as silk drawn from a cocoon. Recurring symptoms are no cause for alarm; hold to standardized treatment and do not switch regimens repeatedly. Untying the knots of the heart is the key to recovery.
Journeys meet entanglement: itineraries interrupted by sudden business, or the traveler caught mid-route in personal disputes and unable to pull free. Trips taken to resolve disputes mostly return empty-handed. If you must go, travel light, keep plans quiet, and cut down on social obligations along the way.
The case coils on without conclusion: procedures repeat, the opponent plays for delay, and key facts may be concealed as well. Even with auspicious doors assisting, losses can only be trimmed, not turned into quick victory. Set a stop-loss line in advance — once acceptable terms appear, settle and leave.
