Stick #69
Han Yu's Crocodile Sacrifice
GoodPoem
Ten years of loyal service as an official
Bountiful years bring joy people still recall
Even the crocodile's venom was pacified
Through prayers to the River and Sea Gods
忠義存心官十載
年豐民樂惠難忘
鱷魚毒害都能息
禱告長江北海王
Interpretation
Han Yu served as governor of Chaozhou with loyalty and righteousness, bringing prosperity and happiness to the people. When man-eating crocodiles plagued the coastal waters, he performed rituals to appease them, and the threat ceased. Those who draw this sign should maintain a kind heart and perform good deeds. Positive energy will turn misfortune into blessing and dissolve all calamities. This sign indicates general stability without major obstacles—more auspicious than harmful—but beware of petty individuals.
