In exams, lawsuits, with supportive allies.

Prayers may heal illness and afflictions.

Good for business, marriage, birth.
From hardship to good fortune will come,
Live honorably to avert misfortune.

In trade, partners call for you.
Beware of rumors spread by foes,
Be cautious with whom you trust and disclose.
