4.95

The Divinations of Shi Kuang says: "When spring thunder first arises, its sound is bo-bo ge-ge. What crashes as a thunderbolt is the so-called male thunder, the vapour of drought. When its rumbling follows in low tones without great thunderbolts, that is the so-called female thunder, the vapour of water." The Divinations of Shi Kuang says: "When rain and thunder sound at the spring equinox, with a noise like thunder yet not thunder, and the sound is underground: wherever it dwells, warfare will arise beneath it. Thunder without clouds is named 'Heavenly Dog'; before three years pass, that state will suffer calamity."
