The verse
Muddy water left still turns clear;
a windless lake shows the bright moon.
What it means
When feelings or thoughts are in turmoil, decisions made in a hurry are rarely clear. Today suits giving yourself some quiet time; once your mind settles, the answer often surfaces on its own.
Something to do today
- Take ten minutes away from screens to sit quietly or go for a walk.
