What are the "Five Mountains and Four Rivers" in Physiognomy?

According to the theory that the human body is omnipresent, physiognomy divides the face into five major parts, also known as the Five Mountains. The forehead is Mount Hengshan in the South, the chin is Mount Hengshan in the North, the left cheekbone is Mount Taishan in the East, the right cheekbone is Mount Huashan in the West, and the nose is Mount Songshan in the Center. Among them, the position of the nose in the Center is the most important. The most important thing about a nose is that it should be high and steep, and it would be best if it had two mountains in the east and west to echo it. If the nose is neither high nor steep, and has no momentum, it means that the life of the person will be full of twists and turns, and there is a possibility of premature death. If the four surrounding Mountains all grow well, but the nose of the Central Mountain is sunken, thin and powerless, then one cannot become very noble. If the nose is pointed and thin, luck in old age will be bad.

The east and west cheekbones are most important when they are straight. If the left and right cheekbones are tilted, it will indicate a vicious appearance, and the person will be cruel and ruined in middle age.

The value of Mount Nanyue lies in its breadth, height and width, and it indicates that young people will achieve success. If it grows tilted, it will become dilapidated.

The value of Mount Beiyue lies in its vastness and breadth, and it represents glory and wealth. If it is pointed, nothing may be accomplished.

The ancients said: When the five mountains face you, blessings come from heaven. The five mountains of the face must complement each other to have a good face. If it is incomplete, life cannot be complete.

In addition to the Five Mountains, there was also the Four Rivers in ancient times. The Four Rivers correspond to the face, among which the ears are the Yangtze River, the eyes are the Yellow River, the mouth is the Huai River, and the nose is the Ji River.

It is best for the four rivers to be unobstructed and unblocked and flow smoothly.
