This easy-to-read four-card layout is one of the most useful of all the layouts. The first domino is the significator, and the last shows the outcome, provided that the advice given is followed. The advice is broken down into two dominoes which can easily be compared and contrasted. Card #2 suggests what to avoid, while #3 shows the path to take.
This layout can also be used to ask about the meaning of a domino from a previously executed layout that may have been unclear. In this usage, Card #2 shows what it did not mean, while #3 clarifies the meaning.

It Deals with This
This sign indicates a great disturbance, and that happiness will be destroyed. There is most likely an enemy, perhaps even a lawsuit. Black magic may have been performed against you. You are being harmed by reciprocal fighting, gossip, or by having gone to a place of much quarrelling. Nothing you do will produce successful results unless you intend to do harm. Now is the time to confront your enemies and settle differences. You should try to find a positive way to vent negative emotions, such as taking action against a perceived injustice. Rituals of making yellow clay stupas representative of deities, saints, or sacred happenings would be beneficial.
Remember that you will reap what you sew. Do not allow yourself to become greedy or totally self-absorbed. To do so will leave you isolated and unhappy, even if you had all the money in the world.
That which has confused you will soon become clear. Your ability to think lucidly is reaching its zenith. Solutions to lingering problems will soon be obvious to you, and you may question how it was possible that you did not see this before.
This sign indicates great stability, and that projects already begun will meet with success. Generally, a favourable sign, the only problem may be a delay in travel, as this is a sign of staying in one place.
