Loshu Grid API

The Loshu Grid API analyzes the numeric pattern derived from an individual’s date of birth and name, returning a structured 3x3 Loshu (Lo Shu) grid with both SVG and Base64 image data. This API is ideal for numerology and astrology platforms looking to provide interactive, number-based insights and visual reports.

Overview

This API helps you understand the energetic distribution of numbers (1–9) in a person’s chart. Each cell represents a number and how frequently it appears based on the date of birth. Missing numbers highlight lessons, while repeated ones show dominant traits.

}

The response includes:

grid – Array showing each number’s frequency in the 3x3 matrix.

svg – Ready-to-render SVG vector format of the Loshu grid.

base64_image – Encoded version of the SVG suitable for direct embedding in image tags.

Example Code Implementations

Below are example implementations in various programming environments.

cURL

curl --location 'https://astroapi-7.divineapi.com/numerology/v1/loshu-grid' \
--header 'Bearer {Your Auth Token}' \
--form 'api_key="{Your API Key}"' \
--form 'day="24"' \
--form 'month="05"' \
--form 'year="2023"' \
--form 'fname="Rahul"' \
--form 'lname="Kumar"' \
--form 'lan="en"'

NodeJS

var request = require('request');
var options = {
  'method': 'POST',
  'url': 'https://astroapi-7.divineapi.com/numerology/v1/loshu-grid',
  'headers': {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer {Your Auth Token}'
  },
  formData: {
    'api_key': '{Your API Key}',
    'day': '24',
    'month': '05',
    'year': '2023',
    'fname': 'Rahul',
    'lname': 'Kumar',
    'lan': 'en'
  }
};
request(options, function (error, response) {
  if (error) throw new Error(error);
  console.log(response.body);
});

JavaScript jQuery AJAX

var form = new FormData();
form.append("api_key", "{Your API Key}");
form.append("day", "24");
form.append("month", "05");
form.append("year", "2023");
form.append("fname", "Rahul");
form.append("lname", "Kumar");
form.append("lan", "en");

var settings = {
  "url": "https://astroapi-7.divineapi.com/numerology/v1/loshu-grid",
  "method": "POST",
  "timeout": 0,
  "headers": {
    "Authorization": "Bearer {Your Auth Token}"
  },
  "processData": false,
  "mimeType": "multipart/form-data",
  "contentType": false,
  "data": form
};

$.ajax(settings).done(function (response) {
  console.log(response);
});

Python

import requests

url = "https://astroapi-7.divineapi.com/numerology/v1/loshu-grid"

payload = {'api_key': '{Your API Key}',
'day': '24',
'month': '05',
'year': '2023',
'fname': 'Rahul',
'lname': 'Kumar',
'lan': 'en'}

headers = {
  'Authorization': 'Bearer {Your Auth Token}'
}

response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=payload,)

print(response.text)

Implementation Notes

Visual Integration:
Use the svg or base64_image fields directly to embed the Loshu grid in dashboards, PDFs, or reports.

Highlight Missing Numbers:
If "times": 0, visually indicate the number as missing or weak in the chart for user insight.

Security:
Always keep your api_key and Bearer token on the server side; never expose them in client applications.

Customization:
You can overlay the SVG grid with personalized interpretations or style the grid to match your platform’s theme.
