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.
	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. If the reading is negative it may represent a structure in which you are stressed and uncomfortable.
The Western Tiles explore obstacles and solutions to strife caused by The Nucleus.
	Wan 1 Symbol: Entering The Entering tile indicates that barriers you now face will soon be lifted. Opportunity and success are ahead, but you must have the courage and energy to take advantage of them.
	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.
	Circles 4 Symbol: Jade The Jade tile indicates hard work resulting in spectacular results. Jade is thought to be an "immortal stone" to many. Therefore, is also denotes longevity of relationships, life and principled values.
The Southern Tiles represent current and near-future influences that are affecting The Nucleus.
	Circles 5 Symbol: Dragon The Dragon tile indicates good luck and large fortunes. Effort is not a prerequisite for the gain suggested by the Dragon tile. You cannot work towards acquiring the Dragon's gifts. They will come when they come, and will most likely be a surprise.
	Circles 1 Symbol: Pearl The Pearl tile denotes the attainment of wealth and a life of luxury. The task will be to balance your spiritual self with your physical self.
	Circles 7 Symbol: Insect The Insect tile indicates short-term gain through a short flurry of hectic work. It is important to realize that the gains the Insect tile offers are not lasting, or of long-term importance. At best they are a stopgap until more substantial goals come along.
The Eastern Tiles are a composite of the factors in your personality that are influencing The Nucleus.
	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.
	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.
	Bamboo 9 Symbol: Willow Tree The Willow Tree tile represents adaptability and survival in the face of harsh conditions. The Willow bends before the bitter winter winds, but does not break. The Willow tile suggests compromise. You must be willing to give some to get some.
The Northern Tiles indicate the outcome of the issue The Nucleus represents.
	Circles 6 Symbol: Peach The Peach tile represents the female spirit in its purest form. Where the Peach tile appears, it is likely a woman or possibly a young girl will play an important role in outcome of your reading.
