Path Layout

 

 

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/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.

 

 

 

 

Current Thoughts

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.

 

 

 

 

Suggested Thoughts

Four/Four (NA/NA): The Mansion of Gold

Placing One Great Thing upon Another Great Thing

This is an extraordinarily favourable sign of prosperity and abundance. Wealth and resources will flow into your life, and your projects will meet with success. This period is ripe for rituals involving earth energies and wealth creation, such as the construction of stupas, shrines, or offerings of gratitude. The abundance you experience will extend to your material world, but be cautious: any efforts focused on destruction or negative energy will not yield favourable outcomes. Additionally, be prepared for delays in travel or the shifting of plans; patience is key, as the universe works in its own timing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Current Emotions

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.

 

 

 

 

Suggested Emotions

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 External Stance

Four/Six (NA/AH): The Golden Mountain

Firmly Holding Your Place

This domino represents a time of stability. Your ongoing projects are on track for success, and the energies around you are favourable for achieving long-term goals. However, there may be some delays in travel or changes to plans. This is a sign of solid progress in your current endeavours, but you may need to wait patiently for the next steps. If you are feeling the urge to move or make drastic changes, take a moment to reflect before acting, as staying grounded in the present will bring the best results.

 

 

 

 

Suggested External Stance

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.
