What does the fortune teller mean by Hui people?

Divination metaphysics has a long history in China, and its origin can be traced back to Fu. After Zhou Wenwang played gossip, fortune-telling began to develop gradually, and the specific development process was relatively long, with each generation contributing more or less. Fortune-telling is just a kind of psychological comfort for people to seek good fortune and avoid evil. Fate is unpredictable, and there are variables at any time. Man's destiny is in his own hands. People mostly use it to predict various future events. It is an auxiliary means when technology is unpredictable. If there is no practical action, everything will be in vain, and we should not indulge in it.

Principle analysis

Fortune-telling is a slightly mysterious metaphysics, based on the Book of Changes and the theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements. Although fortune-telling is not superstitious, it is not as fantastic as some charlatans boast. Don't think that everything can be accurate just by fortune telling. In fact, fortune telling is not so magical. Don't completely deny this knowledge because of some uncertainties. We should treat fortune telling with a scientific attitude. Prediction is to find out the law of things according to some known conditions, and calculate the development trend of things according to its law. In everything, there are both "fixed numbers" (regularity) and "variables" (irregularity). Predicting a thing's "destiny" can be measured, but its "variable" is unpredictable. Why are "variables" unpredictable? It is not difficult to understand the law of "butterfly effect". There are both fixed numbers and variables. This is the way of heaven and earth. Man is predestined by heaven, and so is reason.

The theoretical source of all kinds of knowledge is the Book of Changes. What is the Book of Changes? First, variation, a chaotic phenomenon, a small change can affect the development of things (butterfly effect); Everything in the universe is changeable, changing all the time, and so is personnel. The second is simplicity, one yin and one yang, which contains the principle of everything; Every day, there are land, men and women, ups and downs, and before and after, all of which are complementary and unified. Third, it is not easy. Although things in the world are complicated and changeable, one thing will never change, and that is the law. Heaven and earth run, the four seasons rotate, cold and summer alternate, Leng Xia is hot in winter, the monthly profit and loss, the sun is biased, and the extremes will be reversed. This is the law. Zhouyi [1] originated from Fuxi Bagua, which in turn originated from Confused Luoshu. The Book of Changes says, "Rivers paint, Luo writes, and sages write." We can see the development trend of China's culture from calling for Tam characters to symbols of eight diagrams to interpreting eight diagrams, which is a way of thinking that naturally follows laws and enriches people's experience.

The development of everything has definite numbers and variables, and definite numbers have laws to follow, while variables have no laws to follow; Fixed number contains variables, and variables also contain fixed numbers, and the overall situation of both fixed numbers and variables remains unchanged. Most Yi scholars in ancient and modern times do not distinguish between definite numbers and variables, which confuses this concept. "Fixed number" (law) can predict its development trajectory according to the regularity of things, while "change" (irregularity) cannot be accurately predicted because of impermanence and too many variable factors.

Although everything is complicated and changeable, it also has eternal laws. Since there is a regular side, we can calculate its development track and trend according to these things combined with some known factors in Yi Li.

Take the four pillars and eight characters as an example, there are many factors that affect people's fate, such as eight characters, geomantic omen, social environment, background of the times, people's subjective consciousness and so on. People with the same four pillars and eight characters have different feng shui, social environment, background of the times and subjective consciousness, but their fate is also different. Measuring four pillars and eight characters is just one of many factors that affect people's fate. This fate can reflect the main line of their life destiny trajectory, which is only the main line of destiny trajectory, not the whole fate. Therefore, even if the measurement of four pillars and eight characters is correct, people's specific fate cannot be predicted completely and accurately, because four pillars and eight characters are only one of the main factors that affect people's destiny, and there are many other variable variables that affect people's destiny. In the investigation, those magicians told you for sure what something very specific would look like, which was a lie. Have you seen the weather forecast? With the development of modern science and technology, it is still impossible to accurately detect that it will rain in a certain place on a certain day, because the situation has been changing. When broadcasting the weather forecast, it can only tell you that it will rain in some areas on a certain day (in some areas, this range can be large or small). Besides, it is actually uncertain whether it will rain. There are signs of rain in the forecast, which only shows that it may rain and there will be no shortage.

Recognizing these clearly, it is not difficult to understand why people born at the same time in the same year (such as twins) have different fates, and sometimes there are unpredictable reasons because of variable factors. In addition, the imperfection of forecasting theory system also determines the accuracy of forecasting. Of course, in addition to these objective factors, there are also the level of forecasters. Due to the limitation of knowledge and cognitive ability, there are not many people who really understand in society, and most of them seem to understand.

Lack of cognition

Because this science does not belong to the category of modern science, and it is profound and mysterious, people lack a correct understanding of this science, which gives charlatans a broad cheating space.

Moreover, due to the lack of perfect and rigorous scientific theory in forecasting, the level of industry learners is uneven, and most of them are half-baked. Where there is demand, there is a market. Many people in the society have been crowned with resounding titles under the guise of "easy to learn and predict". Their titles are no longer ancient "semi-immortals", but "masters" who keep pace with the times. Among these "masters", there are many idle little intellectuals or people with little knowledge. They claim to know gossip, read palms, avoid disasters, bluff and cheat, and make a living by fooling with a golden tongue. Lack of knowledge, but in order to make a living, just talk big, mystify, make some ambiguous words, involving some superstitious things to clear their names; Others deliberately exaggerate the influence of certain factors (such as names) on people's fate on the grounds of helping people resolve, so as to make profits.

Due to people's lack of correct understanding of this subject and the proliferation of "masters" pretending to be mysterious and deceptive in society, this subject has been superstitious for a long time.

Deception and disclosure

Nowadays, cheating under the guise of so-called "masters" is very common in society. There are many tricks and tricks, and the common ones are as follows. It should be noted that many of these tricks actually have numerological implications. It can't be said that everything is wrong, but the fortune teller knows nothing about the past and can't explain it with his knowledge. Therefore, it's not that fortune tellers love to lie, but that they don't know themselves. Sadly, people who lack self-confidence at ordinary times are more likely to seek fortune-telling reference, but they turn out to be a liar. Therefore, everyone should build up self-confidence. Fortune-telling is just a reference tool, and it can't be everything. Blind faith is the root of superstition, and only by establishing a correct outlook on fortune-telling.

Deception 1: Your name is not good, you must change it.

This is the most common deception. Why do charlatans often use this trick? It is nothing more than changing the name, which is very marketable, and saves trouble and money. It is easy to change the name. This is a very good business.

Anyone who puts all the responsibility on "fate" and says that he can change your destiny for you is a fool. If your life is bad, it can be said that it is a matter of name, which is even worse. Although the name has little influence on people's fate, the influence of the name is not the main factor, so it is not a bad life or a bad name.

Deception 2: You are a villain this year. For example:

You are a villain this year.

You are too old this year.

You made a peach blossom this year.

You have money but no money this year.

These statements have their own explanatory logic in traditional life sciences, but now fortune tellers just use them to intimidate everyone. It has lost the positive significance of helping people cultivate themselves and settle down, and has no reliable value. Who doesn't make a villain? Who doesn't commit peach blossoms?

Deception 3: There are some five elements missing in your life. For example, you are short of water (fire, gold, wood, earth). These statements are widely empty and difficult to prove, but as long as you happen now, you will think that he is right and fall for it. This is a kind of deception.

Deception 4: You have bad luck this year.

For example:

You have had a bad year.

If your Tang Yin is black, you will be in danger.

If you commit a crime this year, something will happen.

Your name indicates that there is something wrong with your marriage.

Your astrolabe shows professional problems.

Your horoscope indicates that there is something wrong with money.

That's bullshit！ No problem. Who will tell the fortune? However, many people will still be fooled by this sentence.

Deception 5: under the guise of spiritual power.

For example, I can be psychic and observe things you don't know. (a thing of the future, a thing of the past), psychics often need to be introduced to be effective. The most commonly used sentence is: I only communicate with people who are destined, and I have no chance with you, so I am not allowed.

What you say is mostly things that have never happened in the future, which makes you dubious.
