Stick #83: Omen of Great Ill Fortune (Very Unfavorable)
乌云压城势欲摧，大凶之兆须回避。凡事收缩守本分，静待云开见日辉。
Plain reading
Dark clouds press the city as if to crush it — a great omen of ill fortune. Pull back, keep your proper place, and wait quietly until clouds part and sunlight returns.
Interpretation
This is a very unfavorable lot titled "Omen of Great Ill Fortune." Clouds press the walls — omen of great harm. "Pull back, keep proper place, wait for clouds to part" shows motion worsens ill fortune; still guarding is root.
Advice
Stop everything not required for survival. Each day do three things only: eat, sleep, avoid trouble. Make no major decision before clouds part.
From the Book of Changes, Bo hexagram: when yin overwhelms yang, lie low — in great ill fortune, stillness awaits the hour.
