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.
	Circles 8 Symbol: White Tiger The White Tiger tile epitomizes masculinity in its purest form. The male represented by the White Tiger is brave and assertive. He will fight to protect what he feels is right.
The Western Tiles explore obstacles and solutions to strife caused by The Nucleus.
	Bamboo 5 Symbol: Lotus Flower The Lotus Flower tile represents birth or rebirth. On a spiritual level it may indicate you are about to reach new heights in your understanding of your place in the cosmos. Physically it may suggest a child is coming, or a new project is about to emerge. The Lotus Flower tile also speaks of regeneration, and may indicate a time of recovery from hardship: a new beginning.
	Bamboo 6 Symbol: Water The Water tile denotes a need for communication. A trip may be necessary to communicate properly. You may be called upon to present proof of ownership or that an event actually took place.
	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.
The Southern Tiles represent current and near-future influences that are affecting The Nucleus.
	Wan 6 Symbol: Fire The Fire tile is a strong warning that something is wrong or out of balance. The Fire tile is a warning. Your resources are in jeopardy. These endangered resources may be financial or spiritual or physical. In fact, resources of all types may be in danger.
	South Wind Symbol: Fire The South Wind tile is considered to be a very good sign in a reading. It almost ensures a satisfactory end to any problem.
	Bamboo 1 Symbol: Peacock This is the first tile of the first suit in a Mah-jong set. Overall, it represents success. However, it also warns that success sometimes turns to arrogance, which can lead to loss of everything that has been gained. The Peacock tile also suggests a change in your life path is forthcoming.
The Eastern Tiles are a composite of the factors in your personality that are influencing The Nucleus.
	Spring Symbol: The Fisherman The tile of The Fisherman suggests success can be attained through the application of common sense and careful management of your time and relationships. The Fisherman is thorough and patient. He knows that while his efforts will be rewarded as long as he does not give up.
	Wan 2 Symbol: Sword The Sword tile indicates a decision must be made before attainment of your goals can be reached.
	Wan 3 Symbol: Land The Land tile suggests either a stable setting in which you are already thriving, or one that will exist in the near future. With stability your success and vision will grow.
The Northern Tiles indicate the outcome of the issue The Nucleus represents.
	Plum Blossom Symbol: Innocence The Plum tile reflects renewal and viewing your world with fresh viewpoints. It is an inherently 'happy' tile. The Plum tile also suggests inexperience: a trait you must not allow to make you an easy target.
	Wan 5 Symbol: House The House tile represents a building in which you spend much time. If your reading is positive it may well be that this building has the important function providing you with a stable environment in which you are comfortable.
