Classical structure layers
The Lo Shu grid sets out the eight directions around a central palace.
Rest (休), Life (生), Injury (伤), Obstruction (杜), Scenery (景), Death (死), Alarm (惊), and Open (开).
Tian Peng, Tian Rui, Tian Chong, Tian Fu, Tian Qin, Tian Xin, Tian Zhu, Tian Ren, and Tian Ying.
One common set is Zhi Fu, Teng She, Tai Yin, Liu He, Bai Hu, Xuan Wu, Jiu Di, and Jiu Tian. Lineages vary; no palace assignments are made here.
South is at the top. 4–9–2 / 3–5–7 / 8–1–6 is the Lo Shu arrangement. The layers above are conceptual categories only; no event chart or palace assignment is generated. English gate names are explanatory translations and can vary across lineages.
