What was the name of the ancient street stall divination?

In ancient times, the act of setting up a stall for divination was called "setting up a stall for fortune telling".

Telling fortune by setting up a stall is a traditional folk culture in ancient China, which has been circulating for thousands of years. This method usually refers to setting up small stalls in the streets or temple fairs, and fortune tellers provide divination and prediction services for passers-by through divination and equality. According to historical records, fortune-telling in street stalls can be traced back to the Warring States Period, which was very popular in Qin and Han Dynasties. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, fortune telling by setting up stalls became a fashion, which was widely spread and applied.

Although stall fortune telling was widely used and recognized in ancient times, in modern society, with the development of science and technology and the change of people's concepts, more and more people began to question the authenticity and scientificity of fortune telling. Therefore, in fortune-telling activities, we must abide by laws, regulations and moral norms, and we must not deceive others or spread rumors in this way, thus protecting the legitimate rights and interests of consumers and social stability.
