Over the centuries, the Arabic ‘Shield Chart’ method has helped seekers navigate life’s currents by mapping 16 ancestral symbols. This guide will walk you through casting your first chart in four simple steps:
- Set Your Intention
Before you do your reading, take a moment to quiet your mind. What question or situation do you wish to illuminate? Geomancy works best when your focus is clear. - Cast Your Chart
This will randomly generate your Four Mothers: the foundation of your reading. These primary figures represent the raw energies at play. - Watch the Chart Unfold
After the Mothers, the method will derive:- Four Daughters (echoes of the Mothers)
- Four Nieces (patterns emerging from the Daughters)
- Two Witnesses (the moral architects of your question)
- The Judge (the decisive force)
- And the Reconciler (your bridge to resolution)
- Explore Each Position
On the Reading page you’ll find each figure laid out with:- A brief label (e.g. ‘First Daughter’)
- The figure’s name, image, and meaning
- Ideas on how to read its role in your situation
Absorb each symbol, and see how the chart’s story weaves together. Visit the full meanings page for more context on every figure and their interpretations.
