Path Layout

 

 

Difficulty: Easy

For the Path reading, one asks for suggestions how to behave properly to achieve a desired result. The Current column represents how the reader has been acting, and the Suggestedcolumn suggests how they should act to achieve a certain goal. The chart-like spread uses the standard three levels: Rational, Emotional, and External Stance (how one projects oneself outwardly). When comparing the Current and Suggested tiles, the most important thing is to notice the differences between the two tiles. It is these differences which hint at the behaviours that should be altered.

Tile #1 is the significator, the tile which should reflect the nature of the query and/or the desired outcome.

Tile #2 shows the way the reader is and has been thinking. Tile #7 suggests how to change the way one thinks to serve themselves better.

Tile #3 suggests the reader's emotional attitude. Though it may seem difficult to manipulate one's own emotions, it can be done if one puts their mind to it. For example, acting a certain way such as smiling intently for a few minutes will lead the emotions to follow. When a person tries this, as silly as the exercise seems, they find this to evoke the emotion of happiness. For this reading, one should try to make themselves feel the way that Tile #6 suggests.

External Stance means how one acts outwardly, how they hope others see them. Tile #4 is about how the reader has been acting, while #5 indicates how they should act outwardly, for other people's sake. It is the differences between these tiles that hint at what behaviour patterns should be altered.

The Significator

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 Embrace this moment as an invitation to move forward; however, the transition requires that you leave behind outdated practices and step into roles that foster growth.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.

 

 

 

 

Current Thoughts

Wan 4 – Lute

The Lute resonates with the harmonies of balance, introspection, and the gentle rhythms of life. This tile is an invitation to slow down, find solace in the delicate interplay of sound and silence, and appreciate the art of subtle expression. It symbolises the need for restorative pauses in an otherwise frenetic existence—encouraging you to nurture your creative and emotional well-being through the soft strains of music and contemplation. The Lute calls for a mindful retreat from stress, indicating that complex problems may be resolved through calm, deliberate reflection. In its vibration, the Lute speaks of letting go of discord and embracing the moments that allow your inner self to be heard, guiding you towards balanced decisions and a more harmonious existence.

Current Emotions

Worm

The Worm epitomises regenerative energy, transformation, and the power hidden within seemingly insignificant beginnings. It represents the natural process of decay and renewal, where overlooked resources are converted into the nourishment required for growth. This tile speaks to the strength found in humility and persistence, reminding you that progress starts from the smallest seed of effort. The Worm's influence encourages you to see potential in neglected areas and initiate healing processes in both personal and professional realms. It emphasises the importance of continual self-improvement and the subtle shifts that lead to long-term change. By embracing the cycle of decay and rebirth, you learn to transform setbacks into stepping stones, harnessing the power of incremental progress to cultivate lasting results. The worm is an old Tibetan home remedy with tremendous healing properties, and it represents a powerful cure-all.

 

 

 

 

Suggested Emotions

Red Dragon – The Centre

The Red Dragon is the embodiment of vibrant energy, success, and the fulfilment of destiny. It radiates warmth and vitality, symbolising the core drive that propels you towards achievement. In esoteric terms, the Red Dragon is not merely a sign of ambition but also a reminder to balance passion with moderation. Its fiery hue and central position reflect both the life force and the transformative power within, urging you to harness your inner courage to overcome challenges. As a harbinger of favourable outcomes, the Red Dragon warns against reckless pursuits, insisting that success arises from a harmonious integration of heart and mind. Its presence in a reading signals that your goals are within reach, provided you maintain clarity and determination amid the ebb and flow of life's challenges.
