What's the difference between fan fortune telling and fortune telling?

It is more comprehensive to refer to a fan's fortune-telling than to read it.

Finger-fan fortune telling often refers to eight-character fortune telling or four-column prediction. This is a traditional method to predict the changing law of China's life movement. According to heavenly stems and earthly branches, astrologers arrange people's date of birth into eight characters (called "eight characters"), and then use the five elements of this branch to calculate people's fate. It is a method to use personal information, such as facial and hand lines, eight characters of birth, strokes of names, etc., to predict or judge good or bad luck and seek guidance. A learned fortune teller linked fortune-telling with the Book of Changes, one of the five classics. In fact, the Book of Changes itself is regarded by some people as the earliest book of divination, but these books are often difficult to pass scientific research, so some people think it belongs to superstition and the like.

Fortune-telling belongs to the category of "image number", a branch of the Book of Changes. Fortune-telling is to judge a person's fate by observing his appearance, bones or palm prints. The "phase" of fortune telling refers to "phase". Physiognomy refers to the body images inherited from parents after birth, including face, petrography, acoustics, palm prints, etc. On the other hand, due to acquired factors, different procedures will change with the process of life, which is the sum of "life images".
