Game Plan Layout

 

 

Difficulty: Easy

When a person has a certain plan in mind, this simple five-tile spread presents a choice, hinting at what action or attitude should be taken for their plan to succeed, and what should be avoided to help the plan work out for the best.

The initial tile is laid in the centre of the layout, the significator. The following four tiles are laid out clockwise around the significator.

In this spread, the second tile is about what drives the reader, but also says they are not fully conscious of this, perhaps even completely unaware of it. It provides a hint as to the reason they strive for their goal.

The third tile uncovers what others think of the reader and their goals. The reader may or may not be aware of this. Sometimes other people factor into the plans (and sometimes they don't).

The fourth tile suggests what not to do. If things are permitted to go down this path, the plan will collapse.

The fifth tile is a hint as to how to make this plan work out favourably. The idea this tile presents should be followed to make the plan successful. It is the differences between Tiles #4 & #5 that should be noted, as the differences provide important clues.

Rooster

The Rooster symbolises punctuality, discipline, and the promise of new beginnings. It stands for communication and the commitment to rising early, establishing order in your daily life. This tile embodies self-reliance and the drive to assert your presence in the world, ensuring that every new day is approached with determination. The Rooster's crow is not just a call to awaken; it signifies the importance of marking time and seizing opportunities as they emerge. It champions responsibility and the readiness to defend one's personal space, encouraging you to face challenges. The Rooster teaches that consistency, vigilance, and proactive engagement create the groundwork for enduring success.

 

 

 

 

Bamboo 5 – The Lotus Flower

The Lotus is a sacred emblem of rebirth, enlightenment, and the ability to rise above challenges. Its emergence suggests new beginnings—a birth, a fresh opportunity, or spiritual awakening. Rising from the mud to bloom in pristine beauty, this tile signifies triumph over adversity and the purity of spirit gained through hardship. The Lotus encourages letting go of pain, releasing attachments to negativity, and embracing a higher state of consciousness. It heralds a period of recovery and renewal, reminding you that even the most challenging circumstances can lead to profound clarity. Now is the time to embrace new perspectives and allow yourself to flourish.

 

 

 

 

Circles 4 – The Jade Coin

The Jade Coin represents prosperity, stability, and the enduring value of hard-earned success. Unlike fleeting wealth, jade is a symbol of long-term security, integrity, and wisdom in financial or personal matters. This tile suggests that careful planning, persistence, and ethical actions will lead to lasting rewards. It may indicate an opportunity for financial gain, but one that requires patience and wise decision-making rather than impulsive action. The Jade Coin also carries spiritual significance, reminding you that true wealth is not measured by material possessions alone, but by the richness of experience, wisdom, and meaningful relationships.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Circles 5 – The Dragon

The Dragon represents power, transformation, and the potential for monumental achievements. It embodies courage, strength, and adventure, urging you to harness your inner power and rise to the challenges ahead. This tile suggests a time of opportunity, where you can achieve extraordinary feats if you are willing to take bold actions and face any fears head-on. The Dragon also symbolises spiritual growth, renewal, and transcending limitations. It encourages you to embrace change and believe in your ability to influence your destiny. The presence of the Dragon in a reading highlights a period of expansion, where personal and professional boundaries are pushed, and your potential is realised.

 

 

 

 

Wan 1 – Entering

The Entering tile signals the imminent removal of barriers that have confined you, ushering in a period when hidden opportunities become accessible. This tile speaks to the moment of transition when your efforts align with new gateways to success. It demands courage and readiness—entering uncharted territory with both determination and mindfulness. The energy of this tile implies that personal and professional doors, once firmly shut, are now opening. Embrace this moment as an invitation to move forward; however, the transition requires that you leave behind outdated practices and step into roles that foster growth. The Entering tile, thus, is both a call to action and a herald of transformation, underscoring that the rewards for seizing these new opportunities are worth the effort of change.
