Several fortune-telling methods

How many kinds of fortune-telling are there in China!

China's Book of Changes is a well-known treasure of China traditional culture. But many people don't know, in fact, the foundation of Yijing is "Yin-Yang and Five Elements".

If the Book of Changes is compared to a function, then the five elements of Yin and Yang are numbers. Therefore, "Yin-Yang and Five Elements" is the basis of Yi-ology prediction. This is also the source of websites, blogs and so on. Yin-Yang and Five Elements Prediction Center.

"Yi Xue prophecy" is a traditional folk saying of "fortune telling". Of course, what Yanhuangdi is talking about here is real scientific fortune telling, and it does not include the heresy of Jianghu deception.

So, what are the traditional yin-yang and five-element fortune-telling in China?

Generally speaking, birthdays, gossip and fortune telling are the three most familiar categories for the general public. Of course, "Feng Shui" is also often heard by everyone, but most people may think that Feng Shui is just looking at Feng Shui, not fortune telling. In fact, seeing feng shui is also a broad sense of fortune telling, and it is also the traditional prediction range of "Yin-Yang and Five Elements".

As a relatively small branch of prediction, the scientific system is often imperfect, which is not as good as eight characters, eight diagrams and mutual learning. But it is relatively simple and easy to use, and it is easy to be fooled by charlatans.
