Master Luo

Compass-maker

I have made compasses all my life. You turn the brass, cut the rings one at a time, then set the needle in and wait for it to come to rest on its own.

Your directions come from your birth date and gender, and nothing else. Give me those two and I will engrave your eight directions on the plate.

Master Luo is a character of ours, drawn from the compass-makers of Wan'an in old Huizhou.

The gua year turns at Li Chun, the start of spring near 4 February, and not on 1 January. If you were born in January or early February, you count under the year before.
