This sounds interesting but at the end of the write up it is the Lo Shu Square. What makes this different from the others who have sold the Lo Shu Square? Anyone have this and would like to tell us about it? I know that J I'm sold the Lo Shu Square and wonder what else you can do with this thing that hasn't been done before. The write up said that the public can buy the very same book that you are getting from Leaping Lizard... this has always been the case with the Lo Shu Square. Nothing new here, but you get the images on a DVD to print out for your uses. I don't get it. Why would someone buy a book that the public can also buy in a book store and it also has the chart in the book for them to make their own? Is this a new way of reading the Square or is it still the same thing. I can't see paying that much for the collector’s version and getting the very same book the public is getting and then getting a DVD with the artwork to print out. Ray |

Ray -
Thank you, so much, for your interest in this. I’m wondering if the following email I received from TC Tahoe will help: “Hey Scott - Love your The Vitruvian Square. Love it! Love it! Love it! This is one of those rare, wonderful books that every time you read it, you get something more from it. This goes light years beyond the Lo Shu Square. Learning The Vitruvian Square has forever altered, for the better, the way I do readings. It has increased the depth in which I ‘see’ my clients. Thanks again for allowing me an advance viewing of this wonderful book. Good luck and congratulations.” - TC Tahoe Now, like me . . . you certainly don’t want to pay hard earned money for something you already have or that which is readily available on the internet. Obviously, if you purchase a special edition for mentalists, you want to be certain that it is unique and not something anyone can get from Amazon or Barnes & Noble. I’m right there with you. So . . . I am certain after reading the following you will feel better about The Vitruvian Square (irrespective of which one you buy - either the limited or public release editions) and realize that this is leading edge, powerful stuff (in my opinion). I’ve got to tell you that I am thrilled with this project because I created The Vitruvian Square for me. And I have tested and use each and every technique contained in the book. For live shows. For radio appearances. For private readings. And even for personal change work. The Vitruvian Square is for me - first and foremost - a reliable, consistent, and solid reading system. If you give readings, there are tools contained within these pages that will bring your craft to the next level. However, I caution you – there are no scripts to follow, and I don’t encourage the merely curious or those who are into cold reading to purchase this. Rather, I know that you are someone who will read the book and find it to essentially be what you might think of as a personal “Unified Theory of Divination.” If you are, by now, serious about fortune telling, divining, and providing predictions (as I am), this book contains some penetrating and imaginative approaches to using and combining my Deck of Shadows, numerology, Tarot, the Platonic Solids, palmistry, astrology, colors, Alchemy, and on and on. This marriage of various divination traditions is what easily led Jerome (and others) to start personally using the systems in the book. And, I can tell you, in demonstrating some of the techniques during my live appearances, the responses have been tremendous to, among other things, the use of The Vitruvian Square with the Platonic Solids (in plain English – RPG or role-playing dice) and physical oracles like The Seven Keys (for Key Castings). The Vitruvian Square has some of its origins in both the original and Western versions of The Lo Shu Square. But, as TC so generously intimated, this is not something that is simply derivative of prior works. Rather, the orientation of the Western design has been shifted from what most people have seen, and I don’t know of the prior use of my configuration and correspondences for the purposes set out in the book. These distinct modifications, by the way, are what opened my eyes to the grand discovery of the Unified Theory; the combining of fundamental divination principles with easy-to-use and regular visual patterning. Now to address one of your concerns – whether to buy a limited, signed edition -the hardcover version has some great, value added items that are not available with the softbound, public release. For example, I have included a blank template of the actual sheet I personally use when I give readings. This is not something that is included in the softbound release. You will also be receiving an audio recording of me and I will personally walk you through my handling of The Vitruvian Square and provides some nuances for using the system easily and efficiently. You can transfer the recording over to your iPod or other device for straightforward listening in the car, on a walk, and anywhere else the mood strikes you. Also, I am providing a way to use The Seven Keys and The Vitruvian Square, together, for Key Castings – again, not something that is included in the softbound release. Of course, Dean is providing some other perks for those who buy the hardcover version from him! Finally, for those of you who want a little more detail before you decide to buy and to excite you further, here is a portion of what you will discover in the book: 1. The Basic Vitruvian Square 2. The Alphabet 3. Tarot – The Major Arcana 4. The Planes (The Planes of Thought, Passion, Action, Outcomes, Values, and Duty) 5. The Axes (The Axes of Protection and Power) 6. Other Connections (The Diamond of Harmony, The Square of Chaos, The Triangle of Reflection, The Triangle of Results, The Cross of Desire, and The Cross of Binding) 7. Choosing the Squares to Use – The Basics 8. Choosing the Squares to Use – The Threefold Number Method 9. Choosing the Squares to Use – Further Adventures (including uses for The Platonic Solids and Sacred Geometry) 10. Mythic Readings and The Vitruvian Square (The Hero’s Journey) 11. Medicine Wheels, The Minor Arcana, and Structures of Self 12. Alchemy and The Vessels of the Soul 13. Miscellaneous Odds and Ends (The use of pendulums, success and failure readings, colors, astrological signs, how to read a person’s subconscious thoughts, and finding lost items) 14. Palmistry 15. Additional Tools (sigils, incantations and affirmations) 16. The Vitruvian Palace – An Inner Journey So, you can see, this book is crammed full of concepts and techniques and ideas that, I don’t believe, have appeared together before. Most importantly, I know that each and every one of the items contained in The Vitruvian Square work! Oh, one more thing, I am so honored that my dear friend, Enrique Enriquez, has contributed to the contents of The Vitruvian Square, as well. In fact, Enrique has allowed me to include his concepts of interpreting the alphabet in the context of giving readings – a concept that you will be able to put to use immediately! Sorry to go on for such a long time. Just wanted to share my thoughts. Enjoy. - Scott |

Scott,
Thank you so much for writing.... Yes, you have cleared up a few concerns of mine. I already have three of your projects, Seven Keys, Deck of Shadows and Bauta. WOW... what a book! I am really interested in your ideas of the Unified Theory of Divination. This concept is cutting edge and wonderful. Scott, thanks once again for writing... you have just made a sell! I can see this helping with Scrying. Best Ray |

Thank you, Ray. I am glad I was able to help.
As to your scrying, there is a projective technique for The Vitruvian Square that you will find VERY useful! All my best. - Scott |

I'm very much looking forward to this book.
Scott is brilliant and an amazing teacher. His last book,Bauta, was/is ground-breaking and is considered a revolutionary classic in the field. From discussions I've had with Scott over the past few years, I believe this book will be received and recognized like Bauta. Tony Iacoviello |

Thank you, all, for the incredibly kind comments, emails, IMs, phone conversations, and posts. Naturally, I am VERY excited about this new project. I have no doubt that, at the very least, The Vitruvian Square will jump start your imagination and lead you down some new paths. For those of you who already have The Deck of Shadows and The Seven Keys, you will certainly enjoy the accompanying audio and visual material on the DVD. Of course, you don't have to have either of those products to put the material to immediate use. - Scott

Just as a head's up, the non-trade addition is already available from Amazon. I ordered mine a couple days ago and already received it today.

Yes, they listed the general public, softcover version a week or so ago. I received the Hardcover Collector's Editions today, and they will start going out Wednesday with the DVD ROM!
Enjoy all, whichever version you buy.

Thank you, ALL, for the kind comments and emails! I just know you will be pleased when your books arrive and that you will put the techniques from The Vitruvian Square to a very powerful and rewarding use. Again, for those of you who might still be wondering what "this" is all about, visit my website sometime and listen to a few of the radio broadcasts. You will hear precisely how I use the techniques that I teach in the book and on the hardback version's accompanying disc in my work. - Scott
