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

Blank/One (OM/DHI)

A fresh chapter in your life is about to unfold, bringing a wealth of new opportunities. This is a time for you to step forward and embrace new challenges. If you stay true to your values and act with integrity, success will come. The path ahead may seem uncertain, but your strength of character will be your guide. Don't shy away from taking the first step—this is a chance to begin a new journey, one that will lead to personal and spiritual growth.

 

 

 

 

Current Thoughts

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.

 

 

 

 

Suggested Thoughts

Five/Three (TSA/PA): The Empty Mind

Scattering the Mind to Pieces

This domino suggests a time of scattered energies and wasted efforts. You may find yourself chasing fleeting thoughts and ideas that dissipate like paper in the wind. The lack of focus and clarity is hindering your ability to achieve success. During this period, it would be wise to resist external distractions and centre yourself through ritual. Perform a grounding or stabilising ritual to regain control of your thoughts and energy. Only by focusing your mental resources will you begin to find the path forward.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Current Emotions

Blank/Two (OM/RA)

The appearance of this domino heralds the arrival of new relationships, friendships, and opportunities. You may soon encounter a new love, or a current relationship may deepen. The key to success lies in your openness to change and your willingness to take risks. Embrace the new energy that comes into your life, as it will bring personal growth. Be brave, as this is a time to move forward with confidence and trust in the future.

 

 

 

 

Suggested Emotions

Five/Two (TSA/RA): The Great Fiery Weapon

Subduing All Others by being Endowed

This sign is indicative of inner strength and the potential for triumph over your adversaries. There is power in destruction at this moment, so if you must confront enemies or challenges, do so with confidence. Your actions will meet with success, but it will come at a cost. Continually honour your spiritual protectors and engage in rituals to strengthen your defences. Be aware that activities involving earth and water may encounter difficulties during this time.

 

 

 

 

Current External Stance

Four/Blank (NA/OM)

This domino serves as a reminder that you will reap what you sow. While you may feel the urge to focus solely on your own needs and desires, it is important to consider the broader implications of your actions. Greed and self-centeredness will only isolate you and lead to unhappiness, no matter how much wealth you amass. Cultivate generosity, humility, and compassion, and the rewards will be far greater than anything material wealth can offer.

 

 

 

 

Suggested External Stance

Four/Two (NA/RA): The Demon of the Heavenly Son

The Believers of the Deceiver Suffer

A bad omen of instability surrounds you, and obstacles are blocking your progress. There may be unseen forces or adversaries causing disruption, particularly through items you've acquired—such as a red or triangular object that might be holding negative energy. A person in the western direction may be contributing to these challenges. Be cautious of your environment and the people around you, as their intentions may not be aligned with your goals. Focus on clearing obstacles and protecting yourself spiritually.
