Fortune telling is usually associated with such words as superstition, ignorance or deception. However, in fact, fortune telling is a very profound knowledge, and its mystery and magic can not be summarized in one sentence. There were many fortune-telling methods in ancient China, among which Sizhu, Zhouyi Liuyou, Wei Zi Doushu, Wuxing, iron plate divination, Daoism, physiognomy and palm reading were famous. The mainstream fortune-telling is different from the general fortune-telling and has a detailed theoretical system. Through these different fortune-telling methods, we can infer the same thing from the same person, and the results are similar and more in line with the facts. If these fortune-telling methods and theories are absurd, how can we explain all kinds of "coincidences" that people have seen and heard?

China's four-column divination, six hexagrams of Zhouyi, reading and other methods are all based on the growth law of all things and the theory of the unity of man and nature. Behind every basic concept and every truth, there is a profound philosophy of life. In other words, numerology in fortune-telling is actually a matter of personnel, and the heaven it contains is actually human nature. Moreover, what is even more amazing is that fortune-telling can always axiomatize, theorize and conceptualize the truth of these personnel, and then link it with yin and yang, five elements, branches, numbers, symbols and shapes, so that the fate of seemingly impossible people and the outcome of events can be predicted through calculation. Although the basis of these connections is often confusing, they are still reasonable.

Fortune-telling is a science that combines philosophy and natural science, which makes philosophy a natural science in many cases.
