OK Rong!

Read from the stars - The stars - slang our horoscopes. 

Cloud 9 is a place where we are very happy! If we are falling from cloud 9, we are becoming unhappy.

If you let go of something you move on, forget about it.

If you land on your feet you quickly become strong or successful again after a problem or difficult period.

The lion's den is an idiom used to describe a difficult place, or a place in which somebody finds themselves in a very difficult position.

I hope this helps.
