Four of these openings bring winds that bless and bring good fortune, while the other eight release harmful winds. When these destructive winds are sent out, they cause devastation across the entire earth and its waters, affecting all living things on land and in the water.
Through four of these come winds of blessing and prosperity, and from those eight come hurtful winds: when they are sent, they bring destruction on all the earth and on the water upon it, and on all who dwell thereon, and on everything which is in the water and on the land.
