Path Layout

Path Layout #1

 

 

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 layout uses the standard three levels: Rational, Emotional, and External Stance (how one projects oneself outwardly). When comparing the Current and Suggested dominoes, the most important thing is to notice the differences between the two dominoes. It is these differences which hint at the behaviours that should be altered.

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

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

Domino #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 Domino #6 suggests.

External Stance means how one acts outwardly, how they hope others see them. Domino #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 dominoes that hint at what behaviour patterns should be altered.

The Significator

Six/Five (AH/TSA): The White Umbrella of Good Fortune

Increasing the Power of Air

Steady and careful work will pay off in the long run. Focus your efforts on consistent, thoughtful actions, and you will see positive results. Avoid distraction and impulsiveness, as these will only scatter your mental energy. Travel and giving are favourable, especially when you make offerings to natural spirits such as ancestors or trees. Performing your spiritual practices in new or different locations will also amplify their effect, helping you to establish a deeper connection to the energies around you.

 

 

 

 

Current Thoughts

One/Four (DHI/NA): The Golden Wheel

Climbing upon a Throne

A period of prosperity is on the horizon. Like inheriting a fortune, you will experience wealth and success. Your long-term efforts will be rewarded, and your future is filled with promise. You will attract new friends, and even your enemies will come under your influence. For those who are sick, recovery is likely, as their troubles stem from divine displeasure.

 

 

 

 

Suggested Thoughts

Two/Three (RA/PA): The Demon of Death

Activity that Achieves Destruction

At this moment, it may be best to delay your pursuits. Pressing forward now will likely lead to setbacks and obstacles that could hinder your progress. This may seem like a negative sign, but it offers you an important opportunity for re-evaluation. Take time to adjust your approach, refine your strategies, and plan for the future. You'll find success later, but only after taking the time to reconsider your methods and eliminate the barriers in your way.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Current Emotions

Three/Four (PA/NA): The Golden Lotus

Increasing Happiness

The sign of the Golden Lotus, or 'the unploughed harvest', speaks to the eventual success of your efforts. While the road may seem long and slow, rest assured that patience will be rewarded. This sign advises you to focus on nurturing your spiritual growth now, as it will yield long-term results. It is also a good time for you to share your wisdom and knowledge with others. Consider becoming a mentor or guide to someone in need. This act of selfless giving will not only help others but also strengthen your path, aligning you with the flow of prosperity.

 

 

 

 

Suggested Emotions

Two/Six (RA/AH): The Bright Lamp

The One Who Helps Oneself

Soon, you will experience a wave of happiness and success, as doors that were once closed will now open to you. This sign suggests that progress will come easily in areas that were once challenging, bringing a sense of relief and advancement. Embrace the ease of the situation, and take advantage of these opportunities for growth. Now is a time for expansion, where things that seemed impossible will suddenly become attainable.

 

 

 

 

Current External Stance

Four/Five (NA/TSA): The Scattered Mountain of Sand

Dwindling the Mountain to Dust

This pairing signals that your pursuits are in danger of falling apart. Hopes and dreams may feel as if they are being blown away by the wind, leaving you feeling lost. Now is the time to step back and examine where things went wrong. Perform suppression or burial rituals to cleanse yourself of negative influences, as well as peaceful fire rituals to burn away any lingering bad energy. You may also want to consider making amends with those who have wronged you, as your enemies are currently working against you. Retracing your steps will offer clarity and guide you towards healing.

 

 

 

 

Suggested External Stance

Six/Six (AH/AH): The Stainless Sky

The Giving of Fearlessness

The 'Stainless Sky' suggests a need for mental clarity and purity. Now is the time to listen to the subtle guidance of the spirits of the air, as their messages will bring valuable insight. Cleanse your mind of impure thoughts and focus on cultivating peace and balance. Small offerings of gratitude will help preserve your wealth and relationships. This sign is generally neutral, but it highlights the importance of maintaining purity and alignment with spiritual forces.
