Two Tigers in Conflict
FairPoem
One den cannot house two tigers fierce,
Ride the wind to distant peaks, each finds its tier.
Claim your mountain, guard your lair with care,
Lest regret follows when both wounds bear.
一窟難藏兩虎兒
乘風別嶺各棲之
名山自守為巢穴
可免傷殘後悔遲
Interpretation
Two tigers cannot share one mountain. When winds of conflict rise, wise beasts part ways—each claiming a separate peak to avoid mutual destruction. This sign warns against forced confrontations: retreat timely, act only when conditions favor, and let humility turn danger to advantage. Though omens seem dire, yielding prevents harm; beware hidden foes while seeking peace.
