Fortune Element: ○○ – two white stones
Life-soul Element: ●● – two black stones
Vitality
Two black stones mean that the Element for the year controls the natal Element. This is a special reminder that the sphere of life and vitality requires attention, awareness, and harmonization. Black stones bring danger and require you to be prudent. Beware of accidents. Avoid extreme situations. Try to lead an unhurried, even lifestyle, because the energy of life goes „with interruptions and delays.“ Tibetans are advised to compensate for black stones by taking care of the lives of other creatures, giving alms. Hunting and fishing should be completely excluded from your to-do list. What’s good is to save living creatures, for example, to buy a fisherman's catch and release the fish back into the water. Tibetans believe that thus you will prolong and protect your own life. The Tibetans also recite mantras for the long life (you can pick up a similar practice by your religion). Do not forget that all life-affirming rituals, including, for example, giving up fishing, should be done with full awareness of why you are doing it. This is the inner magic work.
Body
One white stone and one black stone mean that your natal Element produces the Element for the year, it’s considered neutral. Health energy will be enough to maintain your normal well-being, but it is better not to subject your body to overloads. The black stone requires sanity and regularity.
Strength
One white stone and one black stone mean that your natal Element produces the Element for the year. It is considered neutral by Tibetans, and it has both pros and cons. The black stone serves as an incentive for greater awareness. This year, your efficiency will not be as high as you would like. Don't try to move mountains, take a sensible approach.
Fortune
Two white stones mean that your natal Element controls the Element for the year (suppresses it). You’re luckier this year. You will attract situations through which your good karma can manifest itself. Fortune will be (usually) on your side, and you have the opportunity to use it to harmonize your life and the lives of your loved ones.
Life-soul
Two black stones indicate that the Element for the year controls your natal Element. Black stones indicate that the energy of your life-soul will be weakened. It will affect your physical immunity, undermine your self-confidence, your will-to-live. Do not give in to despair, do not fall into despondency (it is considered a sin). Overloads are dangerous, take care of your mental and physical health. Harmonize your life. Regularity and moderation will help you.

Body
Two black stones mean that the Element for the year controls your natal Element. Black stones for the body – a danger of diseases and injuries. Watch yourself and be careful. You do not need to run to the gym, you need to show prudence and take care of your health. Full sleep, a moderate balanced diet, no overloads, etc. Tibetans also advise to compensate for black stones magically: change the style of clothing, change the image, hairstyle, hair color, etc., or, for example, come up with a new nickname, alias. By doing this, you will be able to cheat the „evil spirits“ that can not get you and damage your health. As with any magic practice, focus on internal changes, be fully aware of the result. But do not overdo it, fit all changes harmoniously into your life.
