旧匣藏一簪 / 取时已半折 / 君今勿强戴 / 自有新可择

What it mirrors · There's something old you've been meaning to patch up and keep using, a relationship, a habit, an object. It may have passed the point where a repair holds. Forcing it back into place doesn't help either of you. Replacing it isn't a failure; it's simply that its time has come. What this slip shows is "老簪折半": you opened the box and discovered it had already become something other than what it once was.

A mirror, not a prophecy. It reflects you as you are right now. How you walk is still yours to choose.
