Analysis
Cui is an auspicious image. The Use Spirit Wife/Wealth Mao Wood meets Empty, showing the woman is unmarried. The Use Spirit combines with the day-stem; ordinarily this would mean physical harm, but because she has travelled far that danger no longer applies. She is alive, moving east. On the 7th day of the 7th month, leaving Empty meets a combination — that day she will surely return.
Actual outcome
Three days later a telegram came: she had returned the previous evening, on a Hai day.
