Game Plan Layout
Difficulty: Easy
When a person has a certain plan in mind, this simple five-rune layout presents a choice, hinting at what action or attitude should be taken for their plan to succeed, and what should be avoided to help the plan work out for the best.
The initial rune is laid in the centre of the layout, the significator. The following four runes are laid out clockwise around the significator.
In this layout, the second rune is about what drives the reader, but also says they are not fully conscious of this, perhaps even completely unaware of it. It provides a hint as to the reason they strive for their goal.
The third rune uncovers what others think of the reader and their goals. The reader may or may not be aware of this. Sometimes other people factor into the plans (and sometimes they don't).
The fourth rune suggests what not to do. If things are permitted to go down this path, the plan will collapse.
The fifth rune is a hint as to how to make this plan work out favourably. The idea this rune presents should be followed to make the plan successful. It is the differences between Runes #4 & #5 that should be noted, as the differences provide important clues.
