The Eastern Tiles


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.
	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 Western Tiles explore obstacles and solutions to strife caused by The Nucleus.
	Wan 2 Symbol: Sword The Sword tile indicates a decision must be made before attainment of your goals can be reached.
	Bamboo 2 Symbol: Duck The Duck tile symbolizes a long lasting relationship with the strength to overcome all obstacles. It suggests fidelity and trustworthiness as well. Regardless of the type of partnership in question, the 2 Bamboo tile indicates a strong, healthy relationship.
	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.
The Southern Tiles represent current and near-future influences that are affecting The Nucleus.
	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.
	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.
	Red Dragon Symbol: Centre The Red Dragon tile is indicative of success and the fulfilment of your goals.
The Eastern Tiles are a composite of the factors in your personality that are influencing 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.
	Bamboo 3 Symbol: Toad The Toad tile indicates some troubling moments along your life's path, but these aches will heal. It also suggests your ambition may be greater than your reach.
	Bamboo 7 Symbol: Tortoise The Tortoise tile suggests impatience with the time certain aspects are taking to play themselves out. It is likely any open issues you may have will need extra attention and patience to resolve properly. The Tortoise also symbolizes long life.
The Northern Tiles indicate the outcome of the issue The Nucleus represents.
	Wan 9 Symbol: Heaven The Heaven tile suggests completion. This tile denotes a time for you to consider moving on to your next goal.
	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.
	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.
