How to read a destiny matrix chart

A chart holds 28 numbers. Eight sit on the rim: A on the left, B on top, C on the right, D at the bottom and the four corners F, G, I and H between them. The centre E sits in the middle. Each of the eight rays carries two more numbers, and three numbers of the money and love channel sit at the lower right. Every number is one of the 22 arcana.

Two places are drawn in crimson. The solid ray running down from the centre is the karmic tail, and the dashed line at the lower right is the money and love channel. Circles with a double ring mark the four main points, and the dark circle in the middle is the centre.

The chart for February 26, 2001. In the calculator every number can be tapped to show its sum.

Point A, personality, comes from the day of birth: when the day is above 22, its digits are added, so day 26 gives 8. Point B, talents, is the month with no reduction, so it only takes values from 1 to 12. Point C, material karma, comes from the digits of the year, added until the number is 22 or less.

Point D, the outer end of the tail, is A + B + C. The comfort zone, centre E, comes from adding all four: A + B + C + D. Any sum above 22 is reduced the way the day was, by adding its digits. For this date it works out like this.

Everything else is computed from these five numbers alone, so a slip in one of them moves the whole chart. If a result looks doubtful, check the day, month and year first.

Each corner is the sum of two neighbouring main points: F is A + B, G is B + C, I is C + D and H is D + A. In the example F = 10, G = 5, I = 16 and H = 21.

Corners F and I together form the male ancestral line, and G and H the female one. These names belong to the chart, and they come back below in the social purpose.

From each of the eight outer points a ray runs to the centre with two numbers on it. The number nearer the centre is the point plus the centre, and the number nearer the rim is the point plus that first number. For personality A that is A + E = 8 + 8 = 16, then A + A₁ = 8 + 16 = 24 → 2 + 4 = 6.

A ray is named after its point: the line of personality, talents, material karma, the tail, and the male and female lines. Index 1 sits by the centre and index 2 by the rim. All eight rays of the example are in the table.

This is a chain of five numbers at the lower right. It starts from D₁, the tail number by the centre, and C₁, the entrance to the channel. The love point is D₁ + C₁: D₁ + C₁ = 21 + 11 = 32 → 3 + 2 = 5. The money point is the love point + C₁: love + C₁ = 5 + 11 = 16.

The fifth number links the love point to the start of the tail: D₁ + love = 21 + 5 = 26 → 2 + 6 = 8. The chart draws the channel as a dashed line, and it feeds two reading cards, the money point and the love point.

Purposes are sums of lines. Sky is B + D and earth is A + C. Together they give the personal purpose, which the method ties to the years up to about 40. The male line is F + I and the female line G + H, and together they give the social purpose, about ages 40 to 60.

The spiritual purpose is the personal plus the social, and the planetary is the social plus the spiritual; both are tied to the years after 60. In the example the personal purpose is 8, the social 16, the spiritual 6 and the planetary 22.

The table has seven rows and three columns: physics, energy and emotions. The top row takes A and B, the bottom row C and D, and the line numbers and the centre fill the rows between. The third column of each row is the sum of the first two, and the last row adds each column.

The rows carry the Sanskrit names of the chakras. They are labels for rows of the table, and nothing about wellbeing is concluded from them. The totals for the example are physics 13, energy 12 and emotions 16.

The eight main points are spread round a circle ten years apart: A at 0, F at 10, B at 20, G at 30, C at 40, I at 50, D at 60 and H at 70. Seven more numbers sit between each pair of neighbours, 64 cells in all from age 0 to 80.

The numbers in between come from adding neighbours. The period 0 to 10 runs from A = 8 to F = 10, and its midpoint, at five years, is 18. Every number on the ring is read like any other arcanum.

The tail is line D, and it is read from the centre out. In the example it is 21, then 7 and, at the rim, 13: the tail 21-7-13. Look at the number by the centre first, then the second, and the point D last.

The matrix treats a tail as a task, not a sentence: every arcanum has a resource side and a shadow side. The tail 21-7-13 has its own page, and your own tail is found by the tail calculator.

Begin with the centre and the three points A, B and C, which give the base. Then look at the tail and the money and love channel, and the purposes last. Every number has an arcanum page with a section for its position.
