The Nucleus represents the central issue the reading concerns. When interpreting your reading remember that the four sets of tiles surrounding The Nucleus relate to this issue in some way.
	Winter Symbol: The Scholar The Scholar represents gain through intellectual pursuits. The Scholar's mind is sharp and find solutions to the most difficult problems.
The Western Tiles explore obstacles and solutions to strife caused by The Nucleus.
	North Wind Symbol: Water The North Wind tile indicates there will be difficult moments ahead. These can be cancelled out if the South Wind Tile is in your reading as well.
	West Wind Symbol: Metal The West Wind tile represents an obstacle that must be faced before you can make progress towards your goals. This obstacle may be anything from a person to needing to find work.
	Bamboo 8 Symbol: Mushroom The Mushroom tile represents eternal life and oddity. It gets these attributes from the fact that mushrooms in nature always seem to regenerate and often popup where they are unexpected. The notion of oddity is derived from the mushroom seemingly having the nature of a plant, but lacking leaves. The Mushroom tile foretells the coming of unexpected events that will have a lasting impact on you.
The Southern Tiles represent current and near-future influences that are affecting The Nucleus.
	Wan 4 Symbol: Lute The Lute tile indicates a need for relaxation: a break from the stress of your everyday life. For people nearing the end of their career it may suggest that the time for them to retire has come.
	Wan 8 Symbol: Knot The Knot tile represents both bonding and severing. If the Sword tile (2 Wan) is in your reading then the time to sever ties with someone or something is at hand. Conversely if the Duck tile (2 Bamboo) is in your reading then there is bond that will strengthen. If both or neither appear in your reading, then you have a relationship of some kind that is of undecided value.
