Zhuge Oracle Lesson 242 “The sheep strays from the flock”: The verse here is near to the obscure and esoteric, unsuited to modern times; you may as well draw another oracle.

From the complete 384-lesson Zhuge Shen Shu (Zhuge Oracle) system.

Oracle Text

The sheep strays from the flock,
by day it faces the people;
it meets the ox's mouth
and bites a person;
one a lord, and one a minister,
lord and minister somewhat alarmed—
you must rely on the true god to save the living.

Interpretation

The verse here is near to the obscure and esoteric, unsuited to modern times; you may as well draw another oracle.
