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

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.

 

 

 

 

Current Thoughts

One/One (DHI/DHI): The Jewelled Banner of Victory

Hoisting the Banner of Victory

The time is ripe to embark on new ventures and opportunities. Whatever you set your sights on now will be achieved, often surpassing even your highest expectations. This is a time for success and growth. Logical thinking and introspective meditation on your spiritual guide or deity will yield significant rewards. Partnerships and collaborations are favoured, so don't be afraid to join forces with others. Opportunities may seem too good to be true, but take the time to explore them before dismissing anything.

Current Emotions

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 Emotions

Six/One (AH/DHI): The Tone of the Vajra

That Which Pleasantly Increases Intelligence

The arrival of good news is imminent, bringing joy and clarity to your situation. Your happiness will be amplified as though you've just heard positive updates. This domino also emphasises success in intellectual and creative pursuits, including studies in art, science, and spirituality. Take this time to engage in activities that fuel your personal growth. Especially beneficial will be those endeavours involving women or nurturing relationships, as they will play a key role in your current achievements.

 

 

 

 

Current External Stance

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.

 

 

 

 

Suggested External Stance

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.
