The formation and classification of facial features

The formation and classification of facial features

1. The formation of facial features

1. Inheritance from ancestors. A person's fate is determined by his parents, and 70% of it is genetic. Some are like their fathers, some are like their mothers. Some people are a combination of the best qualities of their parents. Of course, there are also people who look like neither their father nor their mother.

2. Accumulation of cause and effect. During a person's growth process, due to the influence of experience and pressure, a person's facial features will show corresponding characteristics.

(3) The power of thoughts. Appearance is created by the mind and changes with the mind. A kind heart will appear in a kind face. Evil thoughts will manifest themselves in a vicious and cruel face.

4. Environmental influence In different living and working environments, due to the influence of climate, environment and different people, a person's facial features will take on the characteristics of the regional environment.

(5) Racial and ethnic characteristics. The most fundamental difference between different races and nationalities lies in the differences in skin color and appearance.

6. Knowledge influence. A person's facial features will have different characteristics due to different learning experiences. People who have received different educations will have different characteristics in their facial features and temperaments. For example: scholarly air; bookish air; pale-faced scholar; elegant temperament, etc.

(VII) A person’s facial features before the age of 20 are mainly determined by congenital genetic factors, for which the parents are responsible. However, a person's facial features will continue to change after the age of 20. This is mainly determined by a series of choices, thoughts, environment, learning and other factors, and you are responsible for it. As the saying goes, girls change a lot when they grow up; and a mother raises nine sons, and the nine sons don’t look like their mother. This is exactly what it means.

2. Classification of Physiognomy

1. According to the Five Elements

According to the classification of ancient Chinese physiognomy, human facial features are divided into the five elements of wood, fire, earth, metal and water.

1. Wood shape. The Wood-shaped figure has a thin, straight and upright appearance, like a tall, upright tree, with an upright demeanor and prominent joints. The face is wide at the top and pointed at the bottom, with delicate eyebrows and eyes, and a round waist and abdomen. His skin is pale with a hint of green, his voice is high-pitched and loud, his personality is gentle and generous, but his will is not strong. This is a standard wood-shaped person.

2. Fire shape. The fire-shaped appearance is characterized by a narrow forehead, a wide chin, a tall nose with exposed pores, less hair, a red complexion, a harsh voice, an irritable personality, easy temper tantrums, and poor logical thinking. This is a typical fire-shaped person.

3. Earth shape. The Earth-shaped person has a solid and sturdy appearance, a humped back and a round waist, light flesh and heavy bones, and broad, round and plump facial features. He has a yellow complexion, a deep and long voice, a serene demeanor, slow and steady movements, is calm and composed, has a deep mind, average intelligence, indifferent emotions, is generous to others, and is trustworthy. This is a standard earth-shaped person.

4. Gold shape. The Jin-shaped appearance has a square face and hands and feet, is light and small, has sharp bones and solid flesh, a fair complexion, a mellow voice, a strong and decisive character, rigorous thinking, deep thoughts, wisdom and quick-wittedness, and a medium height.

The above five elements are typical standard shapes, which are excellent and auspicious shapes, but are not easy to find in real life. Most people's appearance is a mixture of the five elements. According to the principle of the Five Elements, it is precious when the Five Elements generate each other; it is inferior when the Five Elements restrain each other in disorder and chaos.

2. Classification by Pictogram

In daily life, people are accustomed to describing a person's face as what it resembles. For example: round face; square face; horse face; monkey face; square face; A-shaped face; You-shaped face; oval face; scimitar face; machete face; scar face; bitter melon face; fox face; smiling face; peach blossom face; yin-yang face; basin face, etc. No matter what kind of face it looks like, a face that looks friendly, comfortable and beautiful is generally considered a lucky and noble face; a face that looks disgusting, hateful and ugly is considered a vicious and lowly face.

3. Classification by temperament

A person's appearance is a reflection of his inner goodness, evil, beauty and ugliness, and is also the external manifestation of his spiritual temperament. Based on a person's innate talents and acquired cultivation, people classify people's faces according to temperament. For example: pretty, quiet, powerful, resolute, serious, easy-going, cunning, and majestic, etc. An appearance that is consistent inside and out, and whose temperament and spirit are consistent, is auspicious; an appearance that is contrary inside and out, and whose temperament and spirit are divergent, is ominous.

(IV) Classification by good or bad luck

Because people pursue different goals, there are differences in their inner good and evil, beauty and ugliness, and some typical good and bad characteristics are also reflected in their facial features. For example: a lucky look; a noble look; a rich look; a propitious look; a long life look; a poor look; a miserable look; a lowly look; a short life look; an ominous look.
