Is fortune telling a philosophy?

Before answering your question, let me correct one question, that is, if you are asking philosophy, fortune-telling is called numerology in academic circles.

In China, the book of changes is the most famous numerology, and in the west, astrology is the most famous. Because I don't know western astrology, I will tell you something about China in combination with my major.

I studied Ma Zhe, but China's philosophy is also a compulsory course, and in China's philosophy, numerology is also a very important part. Take the Book of Changes as an example: Tai Chi gave birth to two instruments, two instruments gave birth to four images, and four images gave birth to eight diagrams, eventually forming sixty-four hexagrams. Taiji is a chaotic world, two instruments are yin and yang, four images are four seasons, and so on. Its ingredients are all our usual properties. According to Marxist philosophy, this is a simple materialistic thought in ancient times, so its classification belongs to philosophy. As for whether the final result is true or not, I won't say it, because I'm not completely sure. However, it is also metaphysical geomantic omen, and I can tell you responsibly that geomantic omen is academic regardless of whether the state admits it or not. And my graduate students also study Feng Shui.

I hope it helps you.
