Lot 19
BalancedGuo Ziyi Is Made a Prince
At the head of swift rapids, the boat would turn for home;
Why contend with wind and breaking waves?
If you would pass in safety and calm,
Wait until the water settles and the danger is gone.

The Lot in Detail
Traditional image
The image is of a boat entering dangerous rapids. Delay is prudent, not timid; hold the established course until turbulence subsides.
Traditional explanation
The current is too swift for launching
At danger, wait for the hour
If you ask about a plan
Act only when the time arrives
