that the number 5 moving down 135 degrees to 6 in the NW, then up 180 degrees to 7 in the West pattern, then down 45 degrees across to 8 the Northeast and so forth – the angle of flight of the numbers going from one to nine move in angles of 135, 135, 45,180,45,135 and 135, and every angle of degrees adds up to 9. Even when these total angles in degrees are added together, they make a sum of 810, which again add up to 9. Not just that, but drop the zero from 810 and you have 81, which is the square of nine. This stands for the moon, and the moon of course is always related to the passage of time i.e. to the calendar! I am thus not surprised when Lillian tells us that the Lo Shu square holds many secrets, and that the square unlocks the change of energy over time. There are other magic squares with one up to nine in
4 9 2 7 3 8 1 Flight of the Flying Stars 6
the centre that relate to the other planets and numbers. This is also reflected in the number of squares per side; so the “square” is sequentially enlarged. The reason Feng Shui uses the magic square of three or which belongs to the planet Saturn, is that Saturn stands for real-estate or home and feng shui is about improving the home, so that it is in harmony with the cycles of a home’s life.
The square of the numbers 1 and 6 is for the Sun, while the magic square of 6, 2 and 7 are for the moon; these two numbers are added together to make the magic square of 9 for the moon. 3 is for Saturn which is also the Lo Shu square, 4 is the magic square of Jupiter,5 is the magic square of Mars ,7 is the magic square of Venus and 8 is the magic square of Mercury. Lillian explained that these “magic squares” are also used in advanced feng shui.
The 12 animals and the Five Elements in Feng Shui T e earth rotates 15 degrees every hour and 24 hours x 15 = 360 or 1 day. T e 24 Mountains relate to the 15 degree movement of the earth. Every year Jupiter moves 15 degrees and the is where the twelve animals comes from in Chinese astrology and Feng Shui. T e elements run Earth, Mental, Water, Wood and Fire. T ese elements are 72 degrees apart. T e 5 pointed star that is the symbol of the 5 elements is also the symbol of the Vitruvian Man. T e pattern of the fi ve pointed star starts at zero which has to start in the earth sign at 4th February and moves 144 degrees times fi ve which equals a movement of 720 degrees to get back to zero.
