What is the Loshu Grid?
The Loshu Grid, also known as the Lo Shu Square, is an ancient Chinese numerology system that dates back over 4,000 years.
It's a 3x3 magic square where numbers are arranged in a specific pattern. In numerology, this grid is used to analyze
a person's date of birth to reveal their strengths, weaknesses, and personality traits.
How Does It Work?
Your date of birth is broken down into individual digits, which are then placed into the corresponding positions in the Loshu Grid.
The presence or absence of numbers reveals important information about your character, abilities, and life path.
