To
find our Character Number, look at the chart below. On the
top portion you will see the heading “Principle Number”. Find
your Principle Number, then look over to the left where you
see solar month. Find the month you’re born in. Next, slide
your finger across until you’re in the column where your Principle
Number heads. That will be your Character Number.

To
find your Energetic Number is a bit tricky. So, pay attention.
Go back to the original Lo-shu Magic Square. Now, place your
Character Number in the center. What is it? A five? A three?
Place that Lo-shu with your central number over the Lo-shu
Magic Square. Where your Principle Number falls, the number
underneath is your Energetic Number.
For
example: Birth date July 4th 1970. The Principle # is 3 and
Character # is 1.

When
you place it over the Lo-shu Magic Square you will see that
the Principle Number falls on top of the 7. That 7 is your
Energetic Number. A person with this birth date, is 3-1-7.
Now,
what do all these numbers mean? Well, lets take a look at
ourselves- the good and the bad.

run from one extreme to the next. Knows a little about a lot.
Ones are complainers and they don’t like to follow chain of
command. They have trouble finishing things. Moving waters
like to stir things up. They are strong & very independent.
They love travel. Be careful not to isolate yourself too much,
for One is the loneliest number.
Two:

sincere & loyal. Always finding shortcuts to complete their
work. They are motherly & conservative. Women tend to treat
their boyfriends like babies. A 2 person is reserved & gentle.

first, but they get bored easily and move on quickly. Trendsetters.
Quick tempers. Usually good with money, but can be a spendthrift.
