Fortune sticksLot 23 of 50Take care
The wind takes the kite
A warning, not a sentence. Wait, check, or change course.
The verse
Higher, higher, the string sings in the wind,
Then a gust, and the reel spins out of your hand.
Chase it or let it go; both are losses.
Next time, tie the string to your wrist.
What it means
Something is getting away from you: a plan, a budget, a conversation, a habit. The lot is honest that some of it is already gone. Its advice is for next time: hold what matters more tightly, and do not fly in a wind you cannot manage.
What lot 23 says for
- Love
- A situation is running ahead of what you agreed. Slow it down, out loud.
- Work and study
- Scope is creeping. Pin it to the brief before it carries the project off.
- Money
- Spending has slipped the string. Pull it back this month, gently but firmly.
- Wellbeing
- A habit has got loose. Tie it to something fixed: a time, a place, a person.
- Home and travel
- A plan with too many moving parts. Simplify it or postpone it.
Take away

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.
