The second Path layout is a seven-level design that yields insight to achieve a high level of personal and spiritual growth. The roots of the tree, shown in the first two runes, suggest what you need to learn and where the challenge lies. Growing upward, the next two runes are about the forces that guide you and what will help boost your growth. The next two runes show the lower branches of the tree, which provide warnings about what you need to let go of in order to maximise your progress. Finally at the top of the tree, we come to the outcome, showing where this growth process will ultimately lead.
