Decision Layout

Difficulty: Easy
This simple but highly useful layout 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.
Domino #7 is the significator, the overall theme of the query.
Dominoes #3, #1, & #5 represent the chronological sequence of events that occurs if the reader chooses to do (X).
Dominoes #4, #2, & #6 represent the chronological sequence of events that unfolds if the reader chooses not to do (X).

Four/Three (NA/PA): The Overflowing Jewelled Vessel
The Good Field which Increases Happiness
This pair is known as 'the wish-fulfilling cow' and is a symbol of growth and happiness. However, it also suggests that a recent setback may have thrown you off course, possibly due to external negative influences. While it may seem like an evil spirit has interfered, these obstacles were necessary for your development. Sometimes, life presents challenges to prepare you for greater strides forward. Embrace the lesson of resilience, knowing that the detours were part of a larger, more beneficial journey.
Outcome if you do it:
Three/Three (PA/PA): The Ocean of Nectar
The Washing that Cleanses
This sign represents wealth and prosperity flowing towards you, like a river feeding into the ocean. Success in ventures related to water is highlighted, particularly those that involve fluidity, change, or travel. However, be cautious with pursuits related to marriage or rituals involving fire, as they may not meet with the same level of success. Prosperity is assured, but it is important to prioritise the right areas of focus for maximum benefit.
Five/Six (TSA/AH): The White Umbrella of Good Fortune
The Path of Safe Travel
This is a time of good fortune, and your plans are set to come to fruition. Positive news is on the way, and you will see progress towards your goals. However, be cautious about trusting promises made by others—now is a time when external advice or promises may not align with your needs or desires. Trust your own instincts and inner guidance as you continue on your path. Only you can determine what is right for you, and now is the time to take ownership of your future.
One/Six (DHI/AH): Manjushri Appears
The Increasing of Wisdom and Accomplishment of Excellence
The presence of this domino signifies a divine intervention or guidance. Manjushri, the revered deity of wisdom and clarity, is making his presence known to you. This powerful sign calls for introspection and a commitment to finishing unresolved tasks or projects. By addressing and closing the chapters you've left open, you will unlock new opportunities for growth and success. Meditating on or visualizing Manjushri's wisdom will help guide you towards the right path, bringing clarity and progress. Complete what you started, and the rewards will follow.
Outcome if you do not do it:
Five/One (TSA/DHI): The House of Good Tidings
Joyful News Arrives at the Summit of the Mountain
This sign is often called 'the wish-fulfilling tree', representing rapid growth and success. Any efforts involving communication, such as sending messages or receiving important news, will be met with favourable outcomes. It suggests that your goals can be achieved faster than expected, particularly when you focus on presenting your ideas or projects to others. The act of decoration, embellishment, or adding flair to your plans will enhance their impact, bringing positive recognition and results.
Blank/Blank (OM/OM)
The Double Blank is one of the most powerful dominoes in the game. It symbolises a turning point in life, often indicating a significant shift in destiny. This domino is associated with fate, karma, and divine intervention, suggesting that a series of events beyond your control are about to unfold. New opportunities will present themselves, and you are mentally and spiritually prepared to seize them. However, if drawn in a single-domino reading, this domino advises patience—ask the question again at a later time.
Five/Blank (TSA/OM)
You are entering a period of deep self-discovery and personal transformation. This is a time to explore new ways of seeing and understanding the world around you. Trust your intuition, but also make decisions based on logic and reason. Weigh your options carefully before taking action, as impulsive decisions could have long-term consequences. This is a time for thoughtful planning and reflection, not rushing into anything. Take the time to think things through, and the results will be rewarding.
