What are missing numbers? When your date of birth digits are plotted on the Lo Shu Grid, any number from 1-9 that does not appear is a "missing number" — a karmic lesson representing a quality you must consciously develop. Effects span health, career, relationships, and finances. With consistent remedies, negative effects can be reduced by 70–90%.
