लो शू अंकज्योतिष 02 | Ch. 00 Lo Shu:

HOW TO USE THE CHINESE MAGIC SQUARE: THE LO SHU

Thousands of years ago in China, the Lo River flooded, inundating the local population. The people were desperate, and frantically made offerings and sacrifices to the river god, asking him to return the water to its banks.

Suddenly a turtle surfaced on the river. The people saw that there was a pattern on its shell, a grid of nine squares. Each square had dots adding up to numbers. No matter which way the dots were added across the rows either diagonally, vertically, or horizontally, the sum was 15. The diagram was called the "Lo Shu," or "Lo River Writing."

The turtle gave the people the pattern on its back as a map or grid of the natural flow of chi and the elements, and this square with its numbers became a foundational tool in Feng Shui and Taoist traditions. The square is also carried as an amulet or placed in homes and offices as a protective charm.

Find Missing Elements by Birth Date: By laying the numbers of someone's day, month, and year of birth over the corresponding magic square numbers, one can see which elements are missing - those squares with no corresponding numbers in the birth date indicate elemental imbalances. Just drop out any zeros - there is no corresponding Lo Shu sector for zero. These elements can be emphasized by using corresponding colors in home decor, clothing, and jewelry choices. If, for instance, there are no fours in the birth date, the four square in the Lo Shu will be under-emphasized. Remedies would include wearing purple or placing purple objects in the far left corner (if looking from the front door) of the home, office, and individual rooms. Since the element is Wood, keeping a healthy plant in that area will also help bring the lo shu into balance. Additional remedies are listed below.

Find Missing Elements in the Home: Look at the Lo Shu and imagine that the black, one square is laid over your front door. Then imagine the grid stretching to overlay the rest of the structure since few of us live in perfectly square homes, there will likely be empty areas. It's important to imagine the grid stretching to the very back wall of the structure as well. The grid may also be overlayed on an individual room, with the entry doorway at the black number one square. Don't worry about actual compass directions in the Lo Shu square, north is always on or near the main entrance.

If the larger structure has missing elements, those can be emphasized by placing the appropriate remedies within individual rooms in the house. For instance, if there is no "structure" in the far left back four corner, purple amethyst or flowers may be placed in those sectors of individual room. In addition, "empty" or "missing" spaces may be remedied by planting a garden or placing a water feature in the area.

Below are the qualities and rulerships of the squares in the Lo Shu.
