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

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.

 

 

 

 

Current Thoughts

Three/Five (TSA/PA): The Demon of Afflictions

The Boiling Agitation

A turbulent sign, this pairing indicates significant emotional unrest and the threat of external disruptions, such as enemies or legal battles. You feel attacked, whether by malicious gossip, deceit, or even black magic. The source of this disturbance lies in negative, combative energy—perhaps stemming from quarrels or environments where negativity breeds. Now is the time to confront these sources, address conflicts, and settle unresolved disputes. You must also channel your negative emotions into positive action. Performing rituals such as creating yellow clay stupas or honouring sacred deities will help restore balance and ward off further harm.

 

 

 

 

Suggested Thoughts

Two/Five (RA/TSA): The King of Power

Increasing Power and Strength

Strength is rising from within, similar to the wind that strengthens a fire. This is a time for introspection, where your dreams and inner desires will guide you towards the right decision, even if it seems unclear at first. However, it's important to harness this energy effectively, focusing it on specific goals. Now is not the time for scattered thoughts or impulsive actions. Channel your desires into clear, actionable plans, and you'll find success. Be open to unexpected surprises along the way, as they may hold the key to your success.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Current Emotions

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.

 

 

 

 

Suggested Emotions

Six/Three (AH/PA): The Nectar Rays of the Moon

Good Dense Clouds

The sign of 'the Good Moon' represents light-heartedness and ease, suggesting that you will find success through enjoyment and simplicity. During this time, playful and light-hearted activities will flourish, but remember, force or manipulation will not bring results. Allow things to unfold naturally, without trying to exert too much control. This sign favours harmony, so approach situations with gentleness and openness. White-coloured objects, symbols of purity, are particularly auspicious during this time, aiding in your peaceful progress.

 

 

 

 

Current External Stance

Three/One (PA/DHI): The Nectar-like Medicine

Similar Goodness

This is a time of healing and recovery. Any maleficent forces that have been holding you back are now gone. Your ailments, whether physical or emotional, will soon subside, and the plans you've been working on will start to bear fruit. This is a good omen—things are turning in your favour.

 

 

 

 

Suggested External Stance

Six/Four (AH/NA): The Ground of Gold

The Base will be Firm if You Stay Put

Steady work will bring rewards, especially if you remain diligent and consistent. You will accomplish much through persistence and quick action, though the results may not always be immediate. This sign suggests that air-related activities, such as communication or sending letters, may not be as favourable during this time. Instead, focus on fiery, action-driven tasks, and your efforts will yield more significant results.
