Jin Zizai's Physiognomy - A General Discussion of the Five Senses

In physiognomy, there are different techniques and many names.

Jin Anxian answers questions

1. Which of the five senses is the most important?

If you have to choose among the five senses, the eyes are the most important. A pair of precious eyes means you will never have to worry about food and clothing.

3. The five senses

1. Ears are the organ for hearing. If the ears are in good condition, one will be good at listening to advice and achieve more. If the ears are in bad condition, one will listen to only one side and believe in it, and will fail more often.
2. Eyebrows are the key to longevity. If the eyebrow shape is good, you will have the help of noble people and be safe. If the eyebrow shape is bad, your relatives will be estranged from you and you will suffer many difficulties throughout your life.
3. Eyes are inspectors. If the eyes are well-shaped, the person will be intelligent, determined and noble. If the eyes are badly shaped, the person will be stupid, ignorant and overworked.
4. The nose is the palace of judgment. If the nose is well-shaped, one will be able to deal with things smoothly and achieve more. If the nose is not well-shaped, one will be uncertain and regretful.
5. The mouth is the official of income and expenditure. If the mouth shape is good, the person will have abundant food and be good at arguing. If the mouth shape is bad, the person will be poor, lonely and tell lies.

1. Since facial features are predetermined and plastic surgery cannot change them, what is the point of studying physiognomy?

The purpose of learning physiognomy is not to see good or bad luck, nor to show off in front of others. If you realize that there is something lacking in your facial features, then change your mentality in that aspect of your life. For example, people with prominent brow ridges tend to be impulsive. If you subconsciously suppress your temper, you will be more calm and increase the possibility of success. Similarly, if your lover or friend has prominent brow ridges, then you can try to communicate with them in gentle language and a relaxed atmosphere to avoid conflicts. Over time, your character will change, your facial features will become rounder, your complexion will become brighter, and your fortune will change. This is what the ancients said: Appearance is determined by the heart, and the heart can change destiny.

4. Five sense organs supplement

The following precise and simple statements are intended to help readers figure out the reasons for themselves and quickly grasp the method of analyzing the phenomena.
