Why is fortune telling sometimes scary?

In fact, this is a psychological suggestion and has no scientific basis at all. Fortune tellers are usually good at observing people's psychology and know how to use it to achieve their goals. Fortune telling has always been a thing of the past. From good or ill luck to birth, illness and death, there are always people who need fortune tellers to calculate. Today, there is still a market for this business. For example, people often see so-called fortune tellers setting up stalls on flyovers, park gates and roadsides, and some people really support them.

They often ask fortune tellers ambiguous questions to guide people to guess and imagine the direction they believe. Psychologists believe that everyone has a "self-verification" mentality, and after receiving a hint, a series of contents related to this hint will immediately emerge in the brain. Fortune tellers actually use this "self-verification" mentality to lead people into their "trap". Fortune tellers use people's psychology to provide some vague information for people to verify themselves, thus making the information vague and specific.

In fact, these are all "calculated" by yourself. Fortune telling is called metaphysics. At present, many metaphysics cannot be explained by science. They are in a specious state. Believe it or not, there is nothing. For fortune tellers, after experiencing many events, they tend to pay more attention to the fortune teller's judgment and ignore many unforeseen events, so they will see more and more accurately.

Fate may be a set of codes. Our life seems to have random ups and downs, but we just don't know the principle of programming, so we find it wonderful and unpredictable.
