What's the name of the fortune teller who touches bones?
In China ancient people's ideas, people's wealth, poverty, good or bad luck, life and death are all related. In ancient times, great men had different views on fate. For example, Xia Zi, a disciple of Confucius, said: Life and death are rich in heaven. Mozi is against the theory of destiny. He believes that if everyone believes in fate, from the utilitarian point of view, everyone will stop fighting, which will hinder social progress.
China's fortune-telling was born out of a hundred schools of thought contended in the pre-Qin period, originated in the Han Dynasty, and finally established a system in the Tang Dynasty. Li was an important figure in the history of fortune telling in Tang Dynasty. Han Yu, an eight-time master in Tang and Song Dynasties, once commented on Li: Everything is deeper than the five-line book. From the date of birth and the place where people were born, we can calculate people's life span and wealth. Li's epitaph, contained in Han Changli's Collected Works, is highly regarded for his fortune telling.
After the Tang Dynasty, Li's fortune-telling skills were further developed, making his system more complete. However, this set of fortune-telling is too complicated and has not been widely circulated among the people. Because calculating the date of birth and the zodiac is very complicated, it requires a lot of formulas and constant training to complete.
In addition to following the birth fortune-telling method, there are similar techniques to touch bones and view equality. In the latest "Ghost Blowing Lights in Longling Cave", Chen, a blind man, is interpreted as touching the bones of harmony. Because the above fortune-telling methods are difficult to understand, Yuan Tiangang's bone-weighing method was the most popular in the Tang Dynasty.
The method of weighing bones is to compare the weighing weights corresponding to the birth date and time of a lunar calendar, then add up these weights, and then compare the songs in the method of weighing bones to get the judgment about the ups and downs of a person's life. Because this method is simple and convenient, you can learn without a teacher. Fortune teller Dont Ask For Help also said this method.
For example, a person was born at 9: 00 p.m. on the second day of October in the lunar calendar 1957. His year corresponds to Ding You's year of the rooster and he weighs 124 yuan. October of the lunar calendar, eight yuan, the second day, ten o'clock in the evening, six yuan. Then this man's two bones are 328 yuan. One or two equals ten dollars, which can be compared accordingly.
The corresponding Song formula of 328 yuan is to stay for 36 years, take off the blue shirt and put on the red robe. The ancient color is a symbol of dignity and rank, the highest is yellow, followed by red. The change from blue to red is naturally a symbol of wealth, but this fate will not be realized until the age of 36.
As can be seen from the above article, this kind of fortune-telling method is very simple, but it is very rough. Real fortune tellers will combine eight-character fortune telling with bone fortune telling instead of simply using it. Because they can learn from each other and learn from each other's strengths, they are widely circulated among the people. But in fact, fortune-telling is so difficult because there are too few reference materials and the method is too simple. It is necessary to combine the five elements, the four seasons and five directions, the birth and death, and the parasitic zodiac. This article only introduces the history of the above fortune-telling methods, so please judge for yourself.
