Beginner's Guide to Geomancy

1. Introduction to Geomancy

Geomancy is a traditional form of divination using 16 figures composed of 1 or 2 dots per line, representing

the elements: Fire, Air, Water, and Earth. It is used to answer questions or explore situations through

symbolic patterns.

2. The 16 Geomantic Figures

Each figure is made up of 4 lines:

1st line - Fire

2nd line - Air

3rd line - Water

4th line - Earth

Examples:

Fortuna Major: 1 dot, 2 dots, 2 dots, 1 dot - Strong success

Populus: 2 dots on all lines - Passivity, crowd, waiting

Via: 1 dot on all lines - Change, travel

3. How to Generate a Reading

1. Ask a clear question.

2. Randomly generate 4 lines of 1 or 2 dots (traditionally by making marks in sand or on paper).

3. Repeat this 4 times to create the 4 Mothers.

4. Derive 4 Daughters by using the same-positioned lines from each Mother.

5. Use pairs to calculate 4 Nieces: add dot counts per line (odd=1 dot, even=2 dots).

6. Calculate Witnesses and Judge in the same way.

7. The final figure (Judge) gives the overall answer.

4. Interpreting the Figures

Each figure has an elemental and symbolic meaning. Consider:

- The Judge: final answer

Interpret the result based on the question, position, and symbolic meaning of the figures.
