Inferior

Temporarily set aside.

Reading the Fortune Stick Poem

In your current situation, it is not advisable to proceed. Like a warrior cutting off a finger, decisively abandon it. Otherwise, it will invite trouble and no benefits can be gained.

Interpreting the Poem

“Temporarily set aside” means to temporarily let go. This can be interpreted as in love, to let go of some stubborn thoughts or unnecessary persistence to achieve better results. Sometimes, we may be too fixated on certain things and unable to move forward or let go. This stick advises us to let go of them temporarily and let things develop naturally.
