Hints

You need to rearrange these letters, but not in linear order.
There's some magic involved here.
The canonical 3x3 magic square: 816/357/492. Can extrapolating from this help you?
Canonical magic square building: Go northeast (with wraparound) if you're not blocked. If blocked, go one space south. Start in the middle of the top row. Place letters in corresponding spaces.
