Why do fortune tellers _ Why don't fortune tellers tell their own fortune?

Why is fortune-telling so accurate in society?

Most fortune tellers in society have studied the Book of Changes and Eight Diagrams, and can skillfully use traditional mathematical methods to calculate the birth and season. You know, fortune tellers themselves tend to sit in the street with dirty noses. If he really understood God, he would have become a billionaire, so why should he suffer this? . .

The following are the main reasons I mentioned, hoping to help your doubts!

1. It may be an evil spirit.

2. Psychological factors There is a saying similar to "Speak of the devil" called "injured fingers often touch". Why does a person always have the idea that injured fingers are often touched?

There is a simple reason. Actually, it's just that we pay special attention to the injured finger. In other words, our perception of the outside world is selective. From this, we can understand why "speaking of the devil". Because that's the truth: we remember what exactly fits this experience, but we forget what doesn't. It's not how accurate our predictions are, but the choices we make are more conducive to confirming this sentence.

You can name a few more similar things. Some people believe in prophetic dreams. He can really give one or two examples to others. However, he forgot the fact that most of the prophetic dreams have not been realized. Sometimes I hear some people say that someone can accurately calculate divination and so on. In fact, this basically belongs to such a situation, that is, it is occasionally accurately left in the hearts of credulous people, and a large number of inaccurate ones are forgotten by these people.

In fact, on various occasions, it is rarely accurate to predict. It's just that people tend to forget the predictions of a hundred failures, but they relish an accidental success. It should be said that quite a few coincidences can be explained by this.

3. Have a fortune teller and keen observation. I once played the game of "card fortune telling" with my classmates. Their reliability feedback is 65438 000%, 98% and 95% respectively. Actually, it's not evil spirits that work, but that I know their personalities better. (Of course, this game is still not recommended for everyone to play. )

4. The fortune teller's wording. Quote a familiar story: One day, three scholars went to Beijing to catch the exam, stayed in an inn for one night, and met an old fortune teller. When they asked about the future of the imperial examination, the old man mysteriously held out a finger and waved it and said, "I think you can understand my hint." And after seeing the list, I made an appointment to meet at this store to check its accuracy. All three scholars are unwilling to put down the shelf of "smart intellectuals" and all show signs of understanding. After the scholar left, the shopkeeper talked with the fortune teller out of admiration. The fortune teller smiled mysteriously and said, "Isn't this accurate? If one person succeeds, it means that only one person can pass the exam; " If there are two people, it means that one person can't pass the exam; If three people fail, it is interpreted as one person failing the exam; All three possibilities are implicit. How can you say I'm not sure? "

Fortune-tellers combine "macro-climate" with "micro-environment" and summarize and explore some basic laws of people's social life: girls generally can't find suitable husbands; Most young people calculate whether they can raise their wages, get promoted and allocate housing; Most middle school students can be admitted to universities; Most college students calculate whether they can have a good distribution destination, so the meaning of paired calculation is more clear; Young couples must decide whether to have a son; Housewives are more concerned about their children's employment and further education; Although middle-aged cadres are shy, they can't hide their hearts and want to know the future of their careers. Old people can mainly count how long they live; Self-employed people mostly count whether their business can make money ... and so on. Therefore, as long as you can observe what you say, be resourceful, grasp the discretion, do what you like, express your happiness without expressing your worries, or sell a maze after expressing your worries for further development, not only can you earn more money, but the parties will also be greeted with smiles.
