Zanarkand Dome
One of the simplest yet most time-consuming puzzles in the game, the Zanarkand Dome. Step onto the green square near the entrance to actiave the floor puzzle. The puzzle solution is displayed on the far wall. However, I'll tell you the easiest way to get through the first room, by giving you a grid. Each X is a switch you should step on, and each period is a block you shouldn't press, or can't press at all.

After you press all those, there should be six pedestals. Push the northwest pedestal and a new solution is displayed. Enter the next room. Go to the screen display and press X to make all the solutions appear. Here's the solution (with O being something that you can't even get to):

Eh. Something like that. I might be off one or two squares or so, but you should be able to get them yourself, right? Anyway, after you do that, a glyph appears around the central chasm. Go back and push in the southwest pedestal. Here is the solution to that one:

Geez. Repeat what you did before, this time pressing in the northeast pedestal. Solution:

Alright. One last one, I think. I'm not really positive, I need to replay the game. For the last one, press in the southeast pedestal:

Alright, I'm probably off on a few of them, but I tried my best guys. Anyway, after you do that, take the Kilika Sphere from the left side of the screen display and return to the first chamber. Put the sphere into the pedestal on the west side of the first chamber. Return to the larger chamber and take the Besaid Sphere to the last pedestal in the first chamber, which causes the giant chasm to glow. Also, a new Save Sphere appears in the first chamber. Save your game and then you're going to fight the Spectral Keeper.
Re-enter the temple after acquiring the airship to find a new puzzle solution that will allow you to get the item to obtain Anima. Step on the 3 white squares in the first room and then the 4 white ones in the larger. This opens a panel in the first room revealing a Destruction Sphere. Place it into the slot to the right of the monitor in the larger chamber, causing the screen to explode and to reveal the Magistral Rod.
