Lucky Charms and Numerology Your Personal Magic Square Talisman

Long believed to possess great magical properties in India and the far east; numerological Yantras are Magic Squares attuned to an individual by using the numbers of their date of birth to construct the square. Yantra Magic Squares can be used for divination, to bring good luck to the bearer, ward off harm and ill luck, and to draw love and prosperity to you like a magnet. They are relatively simple to make, can be drawn or printed on paper, inscribed on metal, or carved in wood or stone.

In general, Magic squares are any regular grid of numbers; (3 x 3), (4 x 4), etc. where each box of the grid contains an integer number, and all of the rows, columns, and diagonals add up to the same total. Several famous western occultist created and worked with Magic squares: Agrippa, John Dee, Abramelen, and the Golden Dawn just to name a few. Even Benjamin Franklin had a passion for constructing magic squares.

Yantra Magic Squares

The only book I've seen that describes them in detail is "Talisman Magic, Yantra Squares for Tantric Divination" by Richard Webster (Llewellin Publications, St. Paul, Minnesota, 1995). It's currently out of print, but you can find it out there. The book provides a formula for constructing a (4 x 4) magic using your birthday numbers, and your Life Path from Numerology. Let's look at an example to see how they are made.

Johnny Depp's Magic Square

Johnny Depp was born on June 9th, 1963. His Life Path of (7) is calculated as follows:

6 + 9 + 1963 = (1978) = 1 + 9 + 7 + 8 = (25) = 2 + 5 = (7).

The top row of his Yantra Magic square if filled in from left to right with the Month, Day, Year (without the century), and his Life Path as follows:

( 6 ) ( 9 ) ( 63 ) ( 7 )

This row sums up to (85), so we fill out the Magic square with numbers such that all of the rows, columns, and diagonals add up to (85) giving us the following result.

( 6 ) ( 9 ) ( 63 ) ( 7 )

( 61 ) ( 9 ) ( 4 ) ( 11 )

( 8 ) ( 64 ) ( 8 ) ( 5 )

( 10 ) ( 3 ) ( 10 ) ( 62 )

Summation

Using some very simple techniques and materials, anyone can make a potent talisman to attract money, good fortune, and help you reach your life goals; all through the power of numerology.
