What it means

A very auspicious lot: timing, place and people all align, and everything renews. Whatever your starting point, moving with the tide and building good relationships can lead to great things. Liu Bang rose from a petty constable to emperor by knowing people and working in harmony with them. Act boldly and let others share in the gain.

The story · The Sishui Constable Becomes Emperor

Under Qin, Liu Bang was only the constable of Sishui post in Pei County, a minor officer in charge of a way station. When the empire fell apart he rose against Qin, gathered talent such as Zhang Liang, Xiao He and Han Xin, defeated Xiang Yu and founded the Han dynasty as its first emperor.
