Decision Layout

 

 

Difficulty: Easy

This simple but highly useful spread calls for a question to be asked in this format:

"What happens if I do (X), and what happens if I do not do (X)?"

Please note that it should not be viewed as a decision between two different options, but about whether a single option should be exercised or not. A second option would call for a separate reading.

Tile #7 is the significator, the overall theme of the query.

Tiles #3, #1, & #5 represent the chronological sequence of events that occurs if the reader chooses to do (X).

Tiles #4, #2, & #6 represent the chronological sequence of events that unfolds if the reader chooses not to do (X).

Wan 7 – Seven Stars

The Seven Stars tile represents the luminous force of creative energy and the expansive potential of your inner universe. It is a beacon of innovation, intellectual brilliance, and artistic expression, urging you to channel your imaginative capabilities into tangible achievements. This tile denotes a time when your visionary ideas can take flight, provided you harness them with disciplined creativity and structured planning. The Seven Stars inspire you to look beyond the mundane and see the hidden patterns that guide your destiny. They suggest that the power of creation lies in the synthesis of dreams and practical action, illuminating the path ahead with hope and the promise of new beginnings. Embrace the cosmic alignment of inspiration and effort, and you will find that creative power can manifest transformations in every area of your life.

 

 

 

Outcome if you do it:

 

 

Circles 2 – The Pine Tree

The Pine Tree tile embodies steadfast strength, resilience, and mature resolve. It represents a powerful, determined individual—often a person of diplomatic skill—whose unwavering principles guide them through adversity. This tile speaks of enduring character, suggesting that success comes not from impulsive action but through planning, persistence, and accumulating wisdom. It encourages a balanced approach to life: fusing fortitude with measured patience and strategic foresight. The Pine Tree calls upon you to root yourself in your values, nurture your ambitions consistently, and let your steady progress be the foundation upon which lasting achievements are built.

 

 

 

 

Wan 5 – House

The House tile stands for the sanctuary of stability, comfort, and the intimate spaces where personal life unfolds. It symbolises not only a physical structure but also the psychological haven that supports your well-being. This tile suggests the quality of your environment—be it a home, workplace, or community—is deeply interwoven with your emotional state. In a positive reading, the House indicates a secure foundation where growth, nurturing relationships, and inner peace are fostered. Conversely, a challenging interpretation might point to stagnation, tension, or the need to reconfigure aspects of your personal domain to better support your aspirations. The House calls for careful introspection about where you reside, both externally and within, urging you to build or restore a setting that reflects your inner values and needs.

 

 

 

 

North Wind – Water

The North Wind embodies the relentless, often tumultuous qualities of Water, signalling periods of emotional challenge and uncertainty. This tile suggests that the road ahead may be marked by deep, transformative trials—where turbulent emotions and shifting circumstances test your adaptability. Water's fluidity represents both the potential for cleansing renewal and the risk of overwhelming currents. It advises you to remain vigilant and adaptive, using intuition and flexibility to navigate through the complexities that arise. In essence, the North Wind is a call to harness inner strength and resilience, allowing the natural ebb and flow of life's challenges to eventually lead to personal growth and renewal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Outcome if you do not do it:

 

 

Bamboo – Learning

The Bamboo represents resilience, adaptability, and the power of communal strength. Unlike rigid trees that snap in strong winds, bamboo bends but does not break, symbolising the ability to endure challenges through flexibility and wisdom. This tile calls for a balance between strength and surrender, reminding you that sometimes the best way to overcome an obstacle is to yield rather than resist. It also speaks to the importance of interconnectedness—family, friendships, and alliances provide stability and support. The Bamboo encourages you to lean on those around you, knowing that cooperation leads to greater success than solitary struggle. Just as a single bamboo stalk is fragile, but a grove is unbreakable, your strength lies in your connections and willingness to adapt.

 

 

 

 

Wan 9 – Heavens

The Heavens tile embodies the notion of completion, divine orchestration, and the transcendence of worldly endeavours. It signifies that a cycle in your life is drawing to a close, marking the culmination of efforts and the readiness to embrace new horizons. This tile suggests the forces beyond the mundane—cosmic energies, fate, or spiritual intervention—are aligning to bring your current journey to a purposeful end. With this closure comes a clarity that allows you to contemplate the next stage of your evolution. The Heavens remind you that every ending holds the seeds of a new beginning, and that your destiny is part of a grand, ever-unfolding cosmic design. Trust that the completion of this phase is not a termination, but a necessary prelude to the emergence of higher aspirations and more expansive possibilities.

 

 

 

 

Plum Blossom – Innocence

The Plum Blossom is a symbol of resilience, purity, and the resolve to endure hardship. Blooming in the cold of winter, it thrives where other flowers wither, representing perseverance through life's harshest trials. This tile suggests that even in difficult times, there is beauty to be found, and endurance will ultimately lead to renewal. The Plum Blossom also speaks to inner fortitude—your ability to withstand adversity with grace and dignity. Challenges may persist, but just as winter gives way to spring, your current struggles will lead to a period of flourishing. It encourages patience, reminding you that the most valuable growth often occurs in times of hardship.
