Introduction to the Lo Shu Grid
The Lo Shu Grid is a special 3x3 square used in Chinese

numerology to understand how numbers influence life. Each

box in the grid contains a number from 1 to 9, and every row,

column, and diagonal adds up to 15—a number symbolizing

harmony and balance. It was discovered on the shell of a turtle

from the Lo River, making it a mystical and ancient tool. People

use the Lo Shu Grid to reveal strengths, weaknesses, and

patterns in personality, as well as to bring good energy through

practices like feng shui

This simplified introduction gives a kid-friendly focus on

what the grid is, its structure and its purpose. Let me know if

this version aligns with what you're looking for!

Lo-shu Grid
 Origin of the Lo Shu Grid: The Tortoise from
the Lo River

A long time ago in ancient China, there was a powerful emperor

troubled by the flooding of the Lo River. No matter what he tried, the

river’s waters kept overflowing, creating chaos for the people. One day,

while he stood by the riverbank, something extraordinary happened—a

giant tortoise emerged from the waters. But this was no ordinary

tortoise.

The emperor and his advisors noticed a strange pattern of dots

on the tortoise’s shell. When they looked closely, the dots

formed a grid-like structure with nine sections, each

containing a unique number. What was even more surprising

was that, no matter how they added the numbers—horizontally,

vertically, or diagonally—the sum always came out to 15. The

emperor believed that this was a divine message, a secret code

from the universe about balance and harmony.

From that moment, the pattern on the tortoise's shell became

known as the Lo Shu Grid, named after the river from which the
13
tortoise had come. The emperor’s scholars began to study this
grid, believing it held the key to understanding the hidden

meaning of numbers and how they influence life.

This story of the tortoise from the

Lo River has been passed down for

generations, not just as a legend

but as the foundation of

numerology and feng shui

practices. It symbolizes the idea

that numbers are more than just

tools for counting—they can unlock

secrets about ourselves and the

world around us.

Historical Significance in Ancient Chinese

Numerology

The Lo Shu Grid is an ancient numerology tool. Chinese scholars

believed that each number in the grid carries a hidden meaning

about life and personality. It was used to study people's traits,

strengths, and weaknesses by analyzing which numbers were

14
present or missing in a person’s grid, based on their birth date.
 Connection with Feng Shui and the Five
Elements
The Lo Shu Grid is not just a tool for numerology—it also plays an

important role in feng shui, the ancient Chinese practice of

arranging spaces to attract positive energy (Qi). In feng shui,

each number in the Lo Shu Grid is linked to one of the Five

Elements:

- Wood

- Fire

- Earth

- Metal

- Water

These elements are believed to affect different parts of life, such

as health, wealth, relationships, and personal growth.

Balancing the five elements ensures that energy flows smoothly,

bringing harmony and success.

Each number in the Lo Shu Grid corresponds to a specific

element:

- 1 = Water 15

- 3 and 4 = Wood
 - 2, 5, and 8 = Earth

- 6 and 7 = Metal

- 9 = Fire

When people apply the Lo Shu Grid to their living spaces using

feng shui, they aim to activate or balance these elements. For

example, if a person’s grid is missing the number 1 (Water), it

could suggest challenges with communication or flow in life. To

balance this, feng shui practitioners might recommend placing

a fountain or water element in the home.

The Lo Shu Grid also helps people decide where to place objects

in their environment. For example, the direction connected to a

missing element can guide how to decorate a room to enhance

positive energy. This connection between the grid and feng shui

shows how numbers and elements work together to create

balance, well-being, and prosperity.

This blending of numerology and feng shui demonstrates the

ancient Chinese belief that everything in life is

interconnected. When the energy of the elements is properly

balanced, people feel more at peace, creative, and16

successful in their daily lives.

 Symbolism of the Number 15 in the Lo Shu
Grid
Below is a visual representation of the Lo Shu Grid. It’s a 3x3

square with numbers from 1 to 9 arranged in a special way. Each

row, column, and diagonal adds up to 15, which symbolizes

balance and harmony.

The Lo Shu Grid

How Every Row, Column, and Diagonal Adds to 15

Rows Columns:

1. Top row: 4 + 9 + 2 = 15 1. First column: 4 + 3 + 8 = 15

2. Middle row: 3 + 5 + 7 = 15 2. Second column: 9 + 5 + 1 = 15

3. Bottom row: 8 + 1 + 6 = 15 3. Third column: 2 + 7 + 6 = 15 17

 Symbolism of the Number 15 in the Lo Shu Grid

Diagonals:

1. First diagonal: 4 + 5 + 6 = 15

2. Second diagonal: 2 + 5 + 8 = 15

Why Does the Sum of 15 Matter?

The magic number 15 shows us that all parts of life must work together

in perfect balance. No matter which way you look at the numbers—

across, down, or diagonally—they always add up to the same total. This

teaches us that balance is key in everything. Just like how the numbers

in the grid come together, life works best when thoughts, emotions, and

actions are aligned.

The grid is a logical arrangement that brings a sense of order. Ancient

scholars believed that when everything adds up equally, it creates peace

and stability. This is why the Lo Shu Grid has been a symbol of harmony for

centuries—it shows that the universe operates smoothly when every part is

in the right place.

 How to Build and Calculate the Lo Shu Grid

Creating a Lo Shu Grid from someone’s birth date is simple and helps

uncover their strengths, weaknesses, and life patterns. Below is a

step-by-step guide to building the grid, identifying missing or

repeated numbers, and understanding what they mean.

The Lo Shu Grid is a powerful numerology tool used to analyze a

person’s personality, strengths, weaknesses, and life patterns based

on the numbers in their birth date. Below is a step-by-step guide

explaining how to extract numbers from a birth date, use them to fill

the Lo Shu Grid, and interpret the results through missing and

repeated numbers.

20
Step-by-Step Guide to Create the Lo Shu Grid from
a Birth Date

Step 1: Break the Birth Date into Single Digits

- Write the full date of birth and break it into individual digits.

- For example: 7th July 1993 → 07/07/1993

- The digits are: 0, 7, 0, 7, 1, 9, 9, 3

Step 2: Eliminate Zeros (if any)

- The Lo Shu Grid only uses numbers from 1 to 9. Zeros are not

included, so ignore any 0s from the birth date.

- Digits after eliminating 0: 7, 7, 1, 9, 9, 3

Step 3: Understand the Lo Shu Grid Layout The grid follows a fixed

layout where each number from 1 to 9 has its place. Here is the

standard layout

21
 How to Build and Calculate the Lo Shu Grid

- This layout never changes.

- Now, place each digit from the birth date into its respective position on

the grid.

- If a number appears multiple times, list it multiple times in the same

box.

Step 4: Insert the Digits into the Grid

Let’s apply this process using the first example: a young man born on
7th July 1993.

Example 1: Young Man Born on 7th July 1993

1. Birth Date: 07/07/1993 Digits (after removing 0s): 7, 7, 1, 9, 9, 3

2. Insert the Digits into the Grid:

Step 5: Identify Missing and Repeated Numbers

22
 How to Build and Calculate the Lo Shu Grid

Repeated Numbers:

- 7 appears twice → This suggests strong learning abilities and

introspection, but the person might get stuck in overthinking.

- 9 appears twice → Emphasizes ambition and humanitarian traits, but

could lead to frustration if goals are not met.

Missing Numbers:

- 2, 4, 5, and 8 are missing.

-Interpretation: Missing 2 means the person might struggle with

sensitivity and cooperation. Lack of 5 indicates challenges with

emotional balance, and no 8 may suggest difficulties in handling

discipline.

Interpretation for the Young Man - This young man is likely to have

strong inner reflection and ambition but may face challenges with

emotional connection.

Example 2: Old Woman Born on February 29, 1944

1. Birth Date: 29/02/1944 Digits (after removing 0s): 2, 9, 2, 1, 9, 4, 4

2. Insert the Digits into the Grid:

23
3. Identify Missing and Repeated Numbers

Repeated Numbers:

- 4 appears 2 times → Suggests strong organizational skills but may

lead to rigidity

. - 9 appears twice → Shows ambition and humanitarian tendencies but

could also mean frustration.

- 2 appears twice → Indicates strong sensitivity and the ability to work

well with others.

Missing Numbers: - 3, 7, 5, 6 and 8 are missing.

Interpretation for the Old Woman This woman is very organized and

sensitive, but she may struggle with creativity and flexibility.

Conclusion - By following these steps, you can build a Lo Shu Grid using

anyone’s birth date to gain insight into their strengths and weaknesses.

Repeated numbers highlight areas where the person is naturally strong

but might need balance. Missing numbers reveal traits that may require

extra focus for personal growth.

24
Note: A detailed explanation of what each number means and the impact

of missing numbers will be provided in a later chapter of this book. Be sure

to refer to that section to fully understand the significance of your Lo Shu

Grid results.

 3. Structure and Planes of the Lo Shu Grid

The Lo Shu Grid is arranged in a 3x3 square, and each row represents a

different “plane” in life. These planes help us understand how different

areas of our personality and actions come together to shape who we

are. Let’s explore the three main planes in the Lo Shu Grid and what they

mean.

Horizontal Planes in the Lo Shu Grid

Each horizontal row in the Lo Shu Grid focuses on a different part of

life: mental, emotional, and practical. Each of these planes has three

numbers, and together, they help us understand how a person thinks,

feels, and acts.

1. Mental Plane (Numbers 4, 9, 2) - The Mental Plane is the top row of the

Lo Shu Grid, made up of the numbers 4, 9, and 2. This row tells us about

a person’s thinking abilities and how well they can remember things.

Rationality: People with these numbers are usually logical thinkers.

They like to solve problems in a practical way.

Memory: This row also tells us about how good a person is at

remembering information and learning new things.

27
If a person has all these numbers (4, 9,

and 2) present in the top row, they

likely have a strong, active mind and

can think clearly. Missing numbers

may mean they need to work on these

skills.

2. Emotional/Spiritual Plane (Numbers 3, 5, 7) - The Emotional/Spiritual

Plane is the middle row and contains the numbers 3, 5, and 7. This row

shows how a person feels and connects with others on a deeper level.

- Feelings: These numbers reveal how emotional or sensitive a

person may be.

- Instinct: This row also tells us about their inner guidance or “gut

feeling” when making decisions.

If someone has 3, 5, and 7 in this row,

they’re likely to be very in tune with their

emotions and have a strong instinct.

Missing numbers here might suggest

they need to focus more on

understanding their emotions and

connecting with others. 28

 Structure and Planes of the Lo Shu Grid

3. Practical/Material Plane (Numbers 8, 1, 6) - The Practical/Material

Plane is the bottom row, made up of 8, 1, and 6. This row focuses on the

practical side of life, like career, money, and everyday success.

Success: These numbers tell us about a person’s drive to achieve

their goals.

Prosperity: They also show how well a person can manage material

things, like money and resources.

Having 8, 1, and 6 in this row means a

person is usually good at managing

practical matters and likely has a

strong sense of ambition. Missing

numbers may mean they could benefit

from working on their planning or

resource management skills.

Together, these three planes create a complete picture of a person’s

mind, heart, and practical life.

Each number in the Lo Shu Grid plays a role in how we think, feel,

and succeed, and when the numbers are all present and balanced,
29
they create a sense of harmony in a person’s life.
 Motivation: Their inner drive to reach goals and take on challenges.

Persistence: How consistently they stick to their goals, even when things are

tough.

Discipline: Their ability to stay focused and committed to what they start.

3. Action Plane (Numbers 2, 7, 6) The third vertical row is the Action

Plane, represented by 2, 7, and 6. This row shows how well a person can

put their plans into action and follow through.

Execution: Their effectiveness in turning ideas into reality.

Consistency: How steadily they work on tasks to reach completion.

Follow-through: Their commitment to seeing things through once they

begin.

30
 Structure and Planes of the Lo Shu Grid

This style makes it easy to understand how each Vertical Plane

reveals different strengths and abilities, guiding the reader through
thoughts, motivation, and actions in a straightforward way.

Diagonal Planes in the Lo Shu Grid/Golden and

silver rajyogs

In the Lo Shu Grid, there are two important diagonal planes that carry
special meanings. These diagonals are known as the Golden Yog
and Silver Yog. Each of these Yogas (or alignments) reflects different
aspects of success and prosperity in life.

1. Golden Yog (Raj Yog) – Numbers 4, 5, and 6 The Golden Yog is made
up of the numbers 4, 5, and 6 arranged in a diagonal. This alignment is
also known as Raj Yog, which represents fame, wealth, and recognition.

Fame: People with this alignment are likely to become well-known or

respected in their field. They might have strong leadership qualities

and attract attention naturally.

Wealth: The Golden Yog is associated with financial success. Those

with this alignment often have a knack for attracting money and

building wealth over time.

Recognition: Individuals with Raj Yog may achieve status, respect, and

admiration from others.

31
 Structure and Planes of the Lo Shu Grid

Having the Golden Yog in one’s Lo Shu Grid is considered a positive

sign. It indicates that the person has the potential to reach high
levels of success and enjoy public recognition.

2. Silver Yog (Rajat Yog or Property Yog) – Numbers 2, 5, and 8 The

Silver Yog, also called Rajat Yog or Property Yog, is formed by the
numbers 2, 5, and 8 arranged diagonally. This alignment focuses on
property, asset management, and stability.

Property: People with the Silver Yog often have a good connection
with property and real estate they may have a natural ability to
acquire or manage property well

. Asset Management: This alignment indicates that the person is skilled at

handling resources and managing their assets carefully. - Stability: Rajat
Yog suggests a stable life with a focus on long-term security, particularly
in terms of financial and material possessions.

The Silver Yog is valuable for anyone looking to build a strong, stable

foundation in life. It suggests that the person has a good sense of

security and resourcefulness.

32
Together, the Golden and Silver Yogas in the Lo Shu Grid provide a

balanced view of success. While the Golden Yog brings fame and
financial growth, the Silver Yog focuses on stability and wise asset
management. Both are considered beneficial alignments that
contribute to a well-rounded, prosperous life.

33
 Structure and Planes of the Lo Shu Grid

Vertical Planes in the Lo Shu Grid

The vertical rows in the Lo Shu Grid represent three important aspects of

life: thoughts, will, and actions. Each row provides insight into a different

part of a person’s drive and how they bring ideas to life.

1. Thought Plane (Numbers 4, 3, 8) The first vertical row is the Thought

Plane, represented by the numbers 4, 3, and 8. This row shows a

person’s ability to come up with ideas and how they approach planning.

Creativity: How easily they generate ideas and think outside the box.

Planning: How well they organize thoughts and make future plans.

Vision: The strength of their imagination and ability to see the bigger

picture.

2. Will Plane (Numbers 9, 5, 1) The second vertical row is the Will Plane,

made up of the numbers 9, 5, and 1. This row reflects a person’s inner

34
strength and determination.
35
 Numerology of Numbers in
the Lo Shu Grid
Each number in the Lo Shu Grid holds special meaning and represents

different traits. Together, the numbers from 1 to 9 provide a complete

Importance of Repeated Numbers

(Amplification of Traits)

When a number appears more than once in a person’s Lo Shu Grid, it

amplifies or strengthens the traits associated with that number.

Repeated numbers indicate a strong focus on certain qualities, but

having too many of the same number can sometimes lead to

imbalances.
38
 Repeated 1s: Strong independence and leadership, but could lead to
stubbornness or reluctance to accept help.
Repeated 2s: Heightened sensitivity and cooperation, but may result in
being overly dependent or emotional
Repeated 3s: Amplified creativity, but could lead to a lack of focus.
Repeated 4s: Strong organization, but may lead to rigidity.
Repeated 5s: Enhanced adaptability, but could lead to restlessness.
Repeated 6s: Strong sense of responsibility, but may lead to
overprotectiveness.
Repeated 7s: Heightened introspection, but may lead to isolation.
Repeated 8s: Strong ambition, but could lead to materialism.
Repeated 9s: Deep compassion, but may lead to neglecting one’s own
needs.

Impact of Missing Numbers on Personality and

Remedies

In the Lo Shu Grid, each number from 1 to 9 represents specific

personality traits and strengths. When a number is missing in

someone’s grid, it can show an area of life that may need extra focus

or improvement. Missing numbers highlight traits or skills that might be

less developed and can reveal challenges a person might face.

To balance these missing traits, people often use remedies like specific
crystals, colors, and directions. These remedies help to bring more of the

missing number’s energy into a person’s life, supporting personal

39
growth and balance.
 Impact of Missing Numbers on

difficulty taking initiative. People might find it hard to start new

projects or lead others. Traits to Build: Independence, self-belief, and

boldness.

 Kua Numbers (Angel Numbers) and Life
Paths

In Lo Shu Grid numerology, Kua Numbers, also known as Angel

Numbers, play an important role in understanding a person’s life path

and personal growth. Kua Numbers are calculated from a person’s

birth date and represent key aspects of their character, strengths,

and life direction. Each Kua Number is also linked to specific colors

and traits that support personal development.

1. Calculation of Kua Numbers Based on Birth Date

To find a person’s Kua Number, we follow a few simple steps. The

calculation method differs slightly for males and females, as each

has a unique formula. Let’s look at how to calculate it.

Step-by-Step Calculation for Males and Females :

Add the Year of Birth:

Take the last two digits of the birth year and add them together.

Example: If someone was born in 1994, add 9 + 4 = 13. If the result is a two-

digit number, add those digits together until you get a single digit. For

1994: 1 + 3 = 4

51
 Kua Number Formula:

For Males: Subtract the single-digit result from 10.

Example - for a male born in 1994:

10 - 4 = 6.

So, the Kua Number is 6.

For Females: Add 5 to the single-digit result.

If the result is two digits, add them together to get a single digit.

Example for a female born in 1994: 4 + 5 = 9. So, the Kua Number is 9.

Detail Examples

Let’s calculate the Kua Number for a male born on July 7, 1993, and

a female born on February 29, 1994.

Male (1993): Female (1994):

Last two digits: 9 + 3 = 12 Last two digits: 9 + 4 = 13

Simplify: 1 + 2 = 3 Simplify: 1 + 3 = 4

Apply the male formula: 10 - 3 = 7 Apply the female formula: 4 + 5 = 9

Kua Number: 7 Kua Number: 9

 Master and Karmic Numbers in
Numerology
In numerology, certain numbers carry extra importance because

they represent deep spiritual lessons or life challenges. These

numbers are divided into Master Numbers and Karmic Numbers.

Master Numbers are connected to a higher purpose and spiritual

growth, while Karmic Numbers indicate lessons that a person needs

to learn from past experiences.

Master Numbers: 11, 22, and 33

Master Numbers are powerful because they represent high levels of

spiritual energy and potential. People with Master Numbers in their

charts are believed to have a higher purpose, often related to

helping others, spreading wisdom, or creating positive change. The

three main Master Numbers are 11, 22, and 33.

Master Number 11

Spiritual Significance: Known as the “Intuitive Master,” 11 represents

intuition, insight, and enlightenment. People with this number often have

a strong sense of purpose and can be very sensitive to the feelings of

others. 57

organizing and leading projects that benefit many. They have the

potential to make a big impact in the world, building structures,

organizations, or movements that last.

Master Number 33

represents compassion, service, and selflessness. It combines the

energies of both 11 and 22, emphasizing the importance of helping

others without expecting anything in return.

Higher Purpose: Individuals with Master Number 33 often dedicate

58
their lives to humanitarian work or teaching. They feel fulfilled when

they are helping others and making the world a kinder place.
 Karmic Numbers: 13, 14, 16, and 19

 Arrows in the Lo Shu Grid
Arrows in the Lo Shu Grid are simply another name for planes. These

are patterns formed by numbers in a row, column, or diagonal. There

are two types of arrows (visit chapter 3 to read about each plane)

1. Arrows of Strength

2. Arrows of Weakness

1. Arrow of Strength in the Lo Shu Grid

The Arrow of Strength in the Lo Shu Grid is simply another name for

planes in the grid. When a row, column, or diagonal pattern forms in

the grid, it is referred to as an Arrow of Strength. These patterns show

strong qualities in a person, like determination, focus, and the ability

to face challenges.

The Arrow of Strength consists of the following planes:

1. Mental Plane (4, 9, 2)

2. Emotional/Spiritual Plane (3, 5, 7)

3. Practical/Material Plane (8, 1, 6)

4. Thought Plane (4, 3, 8)

5. Will Plane (9, 5, 1)

6. Action Plane (2, 7, 6)

62
7. Golden Yog (4, 5, 6)
 8.Silver Yog (2, 5, 8)

Note

Note: A detailed explanation of each plane in the Lo Shu Grid is already

provided in Chapter 3. Please refer to that chapter for in-depth insights.

Above graphic showing arrows of mental, emotional , practical planes

2. Arrow of weakness in the Lo Shu Grid

In the Lo Shu Grid, Arrows of Weakness highlight areas where

individuals may face challenges or experience certain vulnerabilities.

These arrows are created by the absence of specific numbers in the

grid, which can lead to traits that may require extra attention and

growth.

.
63
The Arrow of Weakness Consists of the Following Patterns

1. Arrow of Frustration (absence of 2, 5, 8 in Lo Shu Grid): Indicates

frequent setbacks and struggles in achieving goals.

2. Arrow of Loneliness (absence of 3, 5, 7): Reflects a lack of

emotional connection, often leading to isolation or loneliness.

3. Arrow of Confusion (absence of 3, 4, 8): Shows difficulty in

organizing thoughts or long-term planning, often resulting in

disorganization.

4. Arrow of Indecision (absence of 1, 5, 9): Highlights difficulty in

making decisions and a strong desire to be accepted by others.

The Arrow of Frustration (Absence of 2, 5, 8)

The Arrow of Frustration in the Western chart is marked by the

absence of the numbers 4, 5, and 6. In the Eastern interpretation, it

is a diagonal arrow formed by the absence of the numbers 8, 5,

and 2. This arrow indicates many setbacks and frustrations. In the

East, it is regarded as a sign of consistent failure. People who have

this arrow should try to learn from every experience and think

carefully before acting.

64
The Arrow of Loneliness (Absence of 3, 5, 7)
The Arrow of Loneliness consists of the absence of the numbers 3, 5,

and 7 in the center horizontal row. This arrow denotes a lack of

feelings. People with this arrow are so focused on achieving their

goals that they often forget their friends and family, lacking joy,

love, and laughter in their lives. They usually suffer enormously from

loneliness in their old age.

The Arrow of Confusion (Absence of 3, 4, 8)

The Arrow of Confusion is caused by the absence of the numbers

3, 4, and 8 in the chart, occupyingthe left-hand vertical column.

People with this arrow are not logical, methodical, or organized.

They live from day to day, seldom making long-term plans. When

they do, they often sabotage the plans before they bear fruit. -

Western Version: Absence of 3, 5, and 7 – Associated with a lack of

mental clarity and direction.

The Arrow of Indecision (Absence of 1, 5, 9)

The Arrow of Indecision is created by the absence of the numbers 1,

5, and 9 in the center vertical row. No one has had this arrow for the

last 1000 years, but we may start to see it in the 21st century. People

with this arrow have a desperate desire to be accepted and liked.

65

Consequently,
they can be easily led and swayed by others. They find it extremely

hard to stand up for what they believe in, as they want to please

everyone and are unable to express views that others might not

accept.

These Arrows of Weakness indicate areas where individuals

may face particular challenges, helping them to recognize and work

on these traits for personal growth and resilience.

Some Small Arrows worth Knowing

In the Lo Shu Grid, there are some other small planes or arrows that

are worth knowing. These Small Arrows are formed by the

connection of two numbers in the grid and represent specific traits

or tendencies in a person’s life. While not as comprehensive as full

planes, they provide additional insights into personality and behavior.

Detail and Deceit (1,3)

Litigation (3,9)

Peace of Mind (7,9)

Science (1,7)

66
 1. The Arrow of Detail and Deceit (1, 3)

The Arrow of Detail and Deceit is formed when the chart contains

both the numbers 1 and 3. This arrow represents an eye for detail

and, in some cases, a tendency toward dishonesty.

- Traits: People with this combination enjoy focusing on details and

may even lean toward perfectionism if there are multiple instances

of these numbers. However, on the negative side, individuals with

this arrow may resort to dishonesty or conceal the truth when it

suits them, often to protect themselves.

2. The Arrow of Litigation (3, 9)

The Arrow of Litigation is created when both 3 and 9 appear in

the chart. This arrow indicates a tendency toward argument and

involvement in disputes.

- Traits: Individuals with this arrow often have a strong inclination

to argue and may frequently find themselves in disputes or

disagreements. If these conflicts escalate, they may even end up

in court, hence the term 'litigation.' This arrow suggests that these

people should learn to manage conflicts constructively to avoid

67
serious disputes.
 3. The Arrow of Peace of Mind (7, 9)

The Arrow of Peace of Mind appears when both 7 and 9 are present

in the chart. This arrow represents a calm and confident approach

to life, grounded in strong faith and positivity.

- Traits: People with this combination are generally optimistic,

confident, and have a strong belief that things will work out for the

best. The logical nature of the 9 complements the spirituality of the

7, giving these individuals a balanced and composed outlook that

allows them to rise above challenges with peace and calmness.

4. The Arrow of Science (1, 7)

The Arrow of Science is formed when both 1 and 7 are present. This

arrow reflects a deep interest in the mysteries of the world and a

passion for exploring hidden truths.

- Traits: Individuals with this arrow are often drawn to scientific

studies, especially those that delve into the unknown or

mysterious aspects of the world, such as ocean sciences. Their

curiosity drives them to seek answers and dive deeply into

subjects that intrigue them, sometimes becoming so absorbed

68
in their studies that they lose track of time.

Personality and Compatibility Analysis Using the
Lo Shu Grid

The Lo Shu Grid is a numerology tool used to understand a

person’s personality, strengths, weaknesses, and compatibility

with others. By creating a grid from someone’s birth date, we can

reveal qualities and challenges that shape their life. Let’s explore

how to build a Lo Shu Grid, identify key traits, and understand

compatibility.

Build a Lo Shu Grid from Birth Dates

Building a Lo Shu Grid from a birth date is simple and reveals

valuable insights. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

1. Write Down the Birth Date: Begin with the full date of birth. For

example, if the birth date is July 7, 1993, write it as 07-07-1993.

2. Extract the Digits: Break down the date into single digits. For 07-

07-1993, the digits are 0, 7, 0, 7, 1, 9, 9, 3.

70
3. Place the Numbers in the Grid: in the top left, and so on. - Repeat

numbers if they appear multiple times in the birth date. For 07-07-

1993, the grid might look like this:

99

3 77

4. Observe Missing or Repeated Numbers: Note any missing

numbers (these indicate areas of growth) and repeated numbers

(which strengthen certain traits).

Now Identifying Strengths, Weaknesses, and Challenges

Once the grid is complete, analyze it to identify personality traits,

strengths, and potential challenges.

Strengths: - Arrows of Strength: When three numbers align in a

row, column, or diagonal, they form Arrows of Strength, which reveal

strong qualities. For instance, 1, 5, and 9 in a row form the Arrow of

71
Determination, showing strong willpower.
Repeated Numbers: If a number appears more than once, it

strengthens that quality. For example, multiple 1s indicate strong

leadership and self-confidence.

Weaknesses:

Arrows of Weakness: Missing numbers in a row, column, or

diagonal create Arrows of Weakness, showing areas that may need

improvement. For example, if 3, 5, and 7 are missing, this forms the

Arrow of Loneliness, suggesting challenges in emotional

connection.

Challenges:

Single Missing Numbers: A missing number in the grid points to a

specific challenge. For instance, a missing 2 may indicate difficulty

in expressing emotions. - Combination of Arrows: Sometimes,

certain arrows combined can create unique challenges. For

example, if a person has both the Arrow of Frustration and the Arrow

of Confusion, they may need extra guidance in managing stress

and organizing their thoughts.

72
The Lo Shu Grid not only reveals personal traits but also helps

understand compatibility with others. Here’s how:

-Compare Grids for Compatibility: By comparing the Lo Shu

Grids of two people, we can see complementary traits and

potential conflicts. For example:

- If one person has the Arrow of Willpower (4, 5, 6) and the

other has the Arrow of Emotional Balance (2, 5, 8), they might

balance each other well, with one providing stability and the

other bringing harmony.

- On the other hand, if both have the Arrow of Litigation (3, 9),

they may need to work on managing conflicts constructively to

avoid arguments.

- Identifying Mutual Strengths and Weaknesses: Shared arrows can

strengthen a relationship, while differing arrows can highlight areas

where partners may need to compromise or support each other.

73
 - Understanding Emotional Needs: By observing which numbers

are missing or present in each person’s grid, we can better

understand their emotional needs, communication styles, and

life goals, making it easier to build a harmonious connection.

Personality Compatibility for Marriage

and Business Using the Lo Shu Grid

The Lo Shu Grid offers valuable insights into compatibility, helping

individuals understand how their personalities align in

relationships, whether in marriage or business. By examining

specific number combinations and arrows, we can see areas where

two people might complement each other or face potential

challenges. Compatibility analysis in the Lo Shu Grid provides a

unique way to strengthen connections through understanding and

balance.

Compatibility in Marriage -

In marriage, compatibility goes beyond love; it includes

understanding each other’s emotional needs, communication

styles, and life goals. The Lo Shu Grid helps reveal these qualities:
74
- Complementary Traits: If one partner has strengths where the

other has weaknesses, they can balance each other well. For

example, if one partner has the Arrow of Emotional Balance (2,

5, 8) and the other has the Arrow of Willpower (4, 5, 6), one

brings harmony while the other brings stability, creating a

balanced relationship.

- Shared Strengths: When both partners share certain arrows, such

as the Arrow of Spirituality (3, 5, 7), they may enjoy a deep

connection and mutual interests, like exploring life’s deeper

meanings together.

- Potential Challenges: Some combinations can bring friction. For

instance, if both partners have the Arrow of Litigation (3, 9), they

may have strong opinions and need to work on open

communication to prevent conflicts from escalating.

Compatibility in Business
In business partnerships, compatibility helps create effective

teamwork and mutual understanding. The Lo Shu Grid can highlight

qualities like leadership, problem-solving, and decision-making,

which are essential in a professional setting:

75
- Business Strengths: A partner with the Arrow of Determination (1,

5, 9) combined with someone who has the Arrow of Science (1, 7)

can form a powerful team. The determined partner brings drive and

focus, while the partner with the Arrow of Science adds curiosity

and analytical skills.

- Balanced Roles: If one person has the Arrow of Practicality (8, 1,

6), focusing on material success, and the other has the Arrow of

Peace of Mind (7, 9), they balance each other. One focuses on

results, while the other helps maintain a calm and harmonious

work environment.

- Areas of Potential Conflict: If both partners have strong

opinions (e.g., both have the Arrow of Detail and Deceit with

numbers 1 and 3), they may need to agree on clear boundaries

and roles to avoid misunderstandings or competition.

Punch Lines for Number Combinations: Fun

Insights
Using number combinations in the Lo Shu Grid, we can create punch

lines or fun phrases to summarize personality traits. These are

lighthearted yet insightful ways to understand the qualities 76

associated with specific combinations:

- 1-4: “Sometimes King, Sometimes Beggar” – Reflects a person

who experiences both highs and lows but always strives to

bounce back.

- 2-5: “Heart of Gold with a Practical Soul” – Indicates a caring

person who is also grounded and realistic.

- 3-6: “The Dreamer and the Doer” – Represents someone who

dreams big but also has the drive to make those dreams a

reality. -

-4-9: “Thinker with a Cause” – Shows a person who combines

practical thinking with a desire to help others or work for a cause.

- 5-7: “Exploring the Depths” – Reflects someone who enjoys

exploring deeper meanings in life and is often drawn to learning.

- 7-8: “The Magnetic Personality” – Indicates someone with a

strong presence who attracts others, often through charm and

confidence.

77
78
 Practical Uses and Applications in Daily Life

The Lo Shu Grid and numerology offer practical ways to

understand and improve daily life. By applying numerological
insights, people can enhance their personal growth,
relationships, and even their environment. Here’s how
numerology can be used in areas like mobile numbers, signature
analysis, and house numbers.

Numerology Applications

1. Mobile Numbers Analysis

- Mobile Numbers: Your mobile number can reveal hidden patterns

about your personality and life path. In numerology, each number
has a meaning. By adding up all the digits in your mobile number
and reducing it to a single digit (or Master Number like 11, 22, etc.),
you can discover its influence on your communication style and
interactions.

- For example, if your mobile number adds up to 5, it

represents adaptability, freedom, and adventure. People with
this number may find themselves frequently on the move or
constantly seeking new experiences.

- Changing or choosing a mobile number that resonates with your

goals (such as success, balance, or better relationships) can positively

influence your life. 79

 Influence of House/Home Numbers on
Life(address of your home)

- House/Home Numbers: The number of your house has a unique

vibration and energy that can influence the atmosphere and the

people living there. In numerology, house numbers are reduced to

a single digit (unless they are a Master Number like 11 or 22) to

determine their energy. -

House NO. 1 - A great place for independence, new beginnings, and

leadership. People living in a number 1 house are often driven and

focused on personal goals.

Number 2 House: This house promotes cooperation, peace, and

emotional bonding. It’s a place where people connect deeply and

support one another.

Number 3 House: Creative and lively energy fills a number 3

house. It is perfect for artists, communicators, and anyone who

enjoys expressing themselves freely.

Number 8 House: This house resonates with power, ambition,

and success. It is ideal for people focused on career growth

and financial stability.

80
- Adjusting House Energy: If you find that your house number’s

energy doesn’t align with your goals or lifestyle, you can adjust it

with small changes. For example, adding a small number to your

door (like placing a “1” sticker next to your number) can change

the vibration of your home.

Note: Mobile numbers and house numbers are vast topics and
cannot be fully described here.

Remedies for Missing or Repeated Elements

in the Lo Shu Grid
In the Lo Shu Grid, the presence or absence of certain numbers

can highlight areas of strength or potential challenges. Missing

elements may indicate traits that need development, while

repeated elements can amplify certain qualities. By using specific

remedies, individuals can balance their grid and improve different

aspects of their lives, including career, relationships, and wealth.

Remedies for Missing Elements

1. Using Colors: - Colors have a powerful effect on energy.

Surrounding yourself with colors linked to the missing number can

81
help balance its influence.
- For example, if you are missing the number 4, you can use more

green in your clothing, home decor, or workspace to encourage

stability and growth.

2. Crystals and Stones:

- Different crystals resonate with specific numbers. Carrying or

wearing these crystals can enhance their energy.

- Example: If 8 is missing from your grid, Black Obsidian can help

bring focus and ambition.

3. Directions and Placement:

- Spend more time in specific directions within your home to

amplify the qualities of a missing number.

- For example, if you are missing 1, spending time in the North

direction can promote leadership and confidence.

4. Daily Practices and Activities:

- Engage in activities that build the traits associated with the

missing number.

- Example: If 2 is missing, practice empathy, spend more time with

loved ones, or engage in teamwork exercises to cultivate emotional

connection. 82
 The Lo Shu Grid can help you improve different areas of your life by

using targeted practices and remedies. Here’s how it can be

applied:

 Mathematical Significance and
Comparisons

The Lo Shu Grid holds a special place in numerology and

mathematics as one of the earliest known magic squares. A magic

square is a grid where numbers are arranged so that the sum of

each row, column, and diagonal is the same. This unique

mathematical balance has made the Lo Shu Grid and other magic

squares symbols of harmony and order in various cultures.

Properties of the Lo Shu as a Magic Square

- 3x3 Grid Layout: The Lo Shu Grid is a 3x3 magic square using

numbers from 1 to 9 arranged in a specific pattern. Each row,

column, and diagonal sums to 15. This balance symbolizes

harmony and order.

Example:

Comparisons

Comparisons with Other Magic Squares

Magic squares have appeared in various cultures, each with its

unique properties and symbolism. One of the most famous

examples is Albrecht Dürer’s 4x4 Magic Square.

- Structure and History:

Albrecht Dürer, a German artist, created the 4x4 magic square in

1514 as part of his engraving titled “Melencolia I.” Unlike the Lo

Shu Grid’s 3x3 layout, Dürer’s square consists of 16 numbers

arranged in a 4x4 grid, where every row, column, and diagonal

adds up to 34. 92
- Special Features:

Year Reference: The bottom row of Dürer’s magic square

includes the numbers 15 and 14, cleverly representing the year

1514 when the artwork was created. This makes Dürer’s square

both a mathematical and artistic masterpiece.

Sum Properties: Every row, column, and diagonal adds up to 34.

In addition, other unique properties make it even more special:

The four corners of the square add up to 34.

The four central numbers also sum to 34.

Various combinations within the square maintain the same

sum, making it a highly balanced and mathematically

intriguing structure.

- Symbolic Meaning:

Dürer’s magic square symbolizes the blend of art, mathematics,

and mysticism that characterized the Renaissance period.

During this time, scholars and artists explored mathematical

concepts deeply, using them not only for art but also as a

reflection of universal truths. 93

 he square’s placement in “Melencolia I” is believed to

represent human creativity and the struggle for knowledge

and perfection. It reflects Dürer’s fascination with geometry,

mathematics and symbolism.

- Cultural Significance:

While the Lo Shu Grid is rooted in Chinese tradition and used

for purposes such as Feng Shui and spiritual balance, Dürer’s

magic square showcases the European Renaissance’s focus

on the intersection of mathematics, art, and philosophy. - It

serves as a testament to how different cultures approached

mathematical concepts with their unique perspectives,

blending numerology, symbolism, and artistic expression.

Other Popular Magic Squares: Throughout history, magic

squares like Indian Ramanujan’s magic squares and Islamic

mathematicians' complex multi-row magic squares have also

captured interest due to their mathematical properties and

cultural significance.

 Spiritual Growth and Symbolism in the Lo Shu
Grid
The Lo Shu Grid is more than just a numerology tool; it holds deep

spiritual and symbolic significance. It reflects the flow of energy,

connects with concepts like chakras and yin-yang balance, and is

even influenced by seasonal changes. Let’s explore how the Lo Shu

Grid plays a role in spiritual growth and balance.

Connection with Chakras and Energy Flow

In spirituality, chakras represent the energy centers in the body,

and the Lo Shu Grid aligns with this idea by influencing the flow of

energy in our lives.

- Chakras and Numbers:

- Each number in the Lo Shu Grid can correspond to different

chakras, reflecting how energy flows through the body.

- For example, the number 1 often represents the Root Chakra,

which is associated with grounding and stability, while 7 aligns with

the Crown Chakra, representing spiritual awakening and higher

consciousness. 97
 - Balancing Energy Flow:

- When a number is missing in your Lo Shu Grid, it can indicate an

imbalance in the corresponding chakra. This imbalance might

affect how you feel, think, or act in life.

- Example: If the number 3 is missing, it may relate to issues with

the Solar Plexus Chakra, which controls self-confidence and

personal power. Balancing this energy through practices like

meditation, affirmations, or specific activities can help.

- Using the Grid for Chakra Balancing:

- By identifying strengths and weaknesses in the Lo Shu Grid, you

can work on specific chakras to bring balance and harmony. This

can be done through visualization, using colors associated with

each number or chakra, and engaging in daily practices that

resonate with the missing or weakened elements.

Yin-Yang Balance in Personality

The concept of yin and yang is central to Chinese philosophy

and represents the duality and balance of opposite forces in

life. The Lo Shu Grid can reflect this balance in a person’s

98

personality,
helping to understand and harmonize opposing traits.

- Understanding Yin and Yang:

- Yin represents feminine, passive, and nurturing qualities, while

Yang represents masculine, active, and assertive qualities.

Together, they create a balanced and harmonious personality

when properly aligned.

- Each number in the Lo Shu Grid can carry yin or yang energy.

For example, 2 is considered a yin number (gentle and

cooperative), while 9 is a yang number (dynamic and strong-

willed).

- Balancing Yin and Yang Using the Grid: - If your Lo Shu Grid shows

an excess of yang numbers (like multiple 1s and 9s), you may

appear overly assertive or driven. Balancing this energy with yin

qualities, such as compassion and
