Rain on the seedbed

Neither for nor against. The outcome depends on what you do next.

The verse

Soft rain on the new-turned earth,
Nothing to see for days.
Do not dig to check the seed;
The green comes when the green is ready.

What it means

Something is growing that you cannot see yet. The lot asks for faith in the ordinary kind: keep watering, keep the weeds down, and do not dig the seed up to see whether it has sprouted. Checking too often is the one way to spoil it.

What lot 15 says for

Love: Something new and tender. Do not ask where it is going; let it grow.
Work and study: A plan or a project is in its quiet phase. Keep at it without demanding results.
Money: What you have planted needs time. Leave it alone.
Wellbeing: A new habit is taking root. The first weeks show nothing; keep going.
Home and travel: Settling in takes longer than moving in. Give a new place a season.

Take away

Keep watering.

Drew this at a temple?

Temples use different sets, most of them a hundred lots, and ours is a set of fifty, so the verse on your slip will not match ours and the grade can differ. Treat the number as a fair guide if it is fifty or under, and read the verse on your slip first; the image on it is the real answer. Here is how to shake for yourself.

A stick is one question. Your chart is all of them.
