“Reading the Lo Shu Grid for others is not about predicting their future — it’s about awakening their power to shape it.”

Once you master your own Lo Shu Grid, the next step is learning how to interpret grids for others. Whether you’re reading for family, friends, or clients, you become a guide and mirror, helping them understand themselves better and suggesting improvements. However, reading for others carries responsibility — it must be done with compassion, accuracy, and ethical consideration. This chapter teaches you how to step confidently into the role of a Lo Shu Numerologist.

How to Read Grids for Family and Friends

Build Trust Before Reading

• Explain what the Lo Shu Grid is and how it works in simple terms.
• Let them know it is not “fortune-telling” but a tool for self-understanding and growth.
• Get their consent before analysing their birth data.

Step-by-Step Reading Process

Step 1: Plot their date of birth accurately on the Lo Shu Grid.

• Step 2: Analyse the presence, absence, or repetition of numbers.
• Step 3: Examine the Horizontal, Vertical, and Diagonal Planes.
• Step 4: Look for secret combinations, missing grids, Mystic Triangle, and double/triple numbers.
• Step 5: Connect all observations to form a holistic personality profile.

Giving Insights Gently

• Highlight strengths first before talking about challenges.
• Present weaknesses as areas of improvement, not as fixed flaws.
• Suggest practical remedies or mindset shifts in a supportive way.

Starting a Practice as a Lo Shu Numerologist

Gaining Experience

• Start by reading grids for family, friends, and acquaintances.
• Keep notes of each reading to track your accuracy and insights.
• Reflect after each reading: What felt intuitive? Where could you improve?

Setting Up Professionally

• Create a simple service offering: Grid reading, personality decoding and remedies.
• Offer short consultations (30–60 minutes) to explain the findings.
• You can offer sessions offline, online via Zoom, WhatsApp, or even email reports.

Building Credibility

• Share testimonials (with permission) from those you’ve helped.
• Educate your audience through small posts, videos, or workshops.
• Always continue studying advanced Lo Shu and complementary numerology systems.

Ethics of Giving Predictions and Remedies

When reading for others, ethical practice is essential to maintain trust and integrity.

Respect Free Will

• Never impose your reading; always offer it as guidance, not absolute truth.
• Remind people they have the power to choose and change their path.

Handle Sensitive Information Carefully

• Keep personal details and readings confidential.
• Avoid making dramatic, fearful, or negative predictions.

Avoid Over-Promising

• Don’t guarantee wealth, marriage, or life events.
• Focus on highlighting potentials and helping them make better decisions.

Give Remedies Responsibly

• Suggest remedies that are simple, empowering, and ethical (affirmations, habit changes, mindset shifts).
• If suggesting spiritual remedies (like chanting, crystals, colours), explain their symbolic nature, not as superstitions.

Blending Intuition with Analysis

While Lo Shu is a scientific system of numbers, true mastery comes from blending structured analysis with intuitive feeling.

Analytical Approach

• Start with facts: what the grid shows based on the numbers.
• Use techniques like checking missing numbers, secret combinations, Plane strengths, etc.

Intuitive Approach

• Tune into the energy of the person you’re reading for.
• Notice what feelings, words, or images naturally arise while reading the grid.
• Sometimes the grid may “speak” differently — a missing number might feel more important than usual, or a double number may “vibrate” a specific theme.

Balancing the Two

• Use analysis to build the skeleton of the reading.
• Use intuition to add soul and subtlety to your interpretation.
• Always cross-check your intuitive insights with the grid’s structure for balance.

Final Rule: “Practice-Practice Practice”
