Arrow _ foreign constellation

On one occasion, I participated in and received a visiting group composed of European nobles. They are related to the royal family in Otawa, and they are very knowledgeable and cultured, and they are polite to people, but there is an arrogance hidden behind their cultivation. On the last day of dinner, they may have drunk too much, and these nobles became more outspoken. During the dinner, a German nobleman stood up and said, You China people, what kind of pigs and dogs are you? Unlike us, they are all Taurus, Leo and Andromeda ... I don't know what your ancestors thought! Everyone laughed and clinked glasses, and the previous elegance was completely gone.

It is natural for people to call your ancestors names. Even if you can't think of any counterattack, you can at least lift the table! However, the people of China who were present didn't say anything, or maybe they didn't react. I stood up and said in a calm tone: Yes, the ancestors of China people are very real. Our zodiac signs are relative, and the six divisions in the wheel of karma reflect the expectations and demands of our ancestors. At this point, the atmosphere at the scene gradually quieted down, but the faces of the nobles were still indifferent.

I said: The first group is rats and cows. Rats represent wisdom and cows represent diligence. Wisdom and diligence must be closely combined. If wisdom is not diligent, it becomes smart; And just being diligent without thinking becomes stupid. The two must be combined. This is the expectation and requirement of our ancestors for our first group, and it is also the most important group.

The second group are tigers and rabbits. Tigers represent courage, rabbits represent caution. Courage and caution must be closely combined to achieve boldness and caution. If courage leaves prudence, it becomes recklessness, but without courage, it becomes timidity. This group is also very important, so it ranks second. I think these nobles should add: When we show caution, don't think that China people are not brave.

Looking at everyone lost in thought, I went on to say: the third group is dragon and snake, the dragon represents fierceness, and the snake represents flexibility. The so-called rigid is easy to break, and too rigid is easy to break. However, if there is only a soft side, it is easy to lose your mind. Therefore, combining rigidity with softness is our ancestral motto.

Next are horses and sheep. Horses represent courage and sheep represent harmony. If a person only cares about his own goals and doesn't consider the surrounding environment, he will inevitably bump into the surrounding environment, and he may not be able to achieve his goals in the end. But if a person patronizes harmony, he may even have no direction. So his courage must be closely combined with harmony, which is the fourth set of expectations of our ancestors.

Then there are monkeys and chickens. Monkeys represent flexibility, and chickens crow regularly, which represents constancy. Flexibility and constancy must be closely combined. If you are flexible and inconsistent, no matter how good the policy is, you will not get anything. On the one hand, it will be stable and maintain the overall harmony and order, on the other hand, it can move forward in flexibility. This is the most fundamental gist.

Finally, there are dogs and pigs. Dogs represent loyalty and pigs represent easygoing. If a person is too loyal and doesn't know how to be easy-going, he will exclude others. On the contrary, if a person is too easy-going and has no loyalty, he will lose his principles. No matter his loyalty to a nation or his own ideal, he must be closely combined with easygoing, so as to easily maintain a deep balance.
