What is physiognomy in ancient occupation, and what does this occupation do?

Ancient fortune tellers were fortune tellers at best; Worst of all, they are equated with fortune tellers, such nonsense and opportunists who cheat money. Moreover, in the ancient occupation, the position of the face was not very high, nor was it very glamorous. Compared with doctors who treat names and musicians who have fun, physiognomy can be said to be a very low profession.

But existence is reasonable. Since there are fortune tellers, there are people engaged in this industry.

Everyone must have heard of Ma Yi's physiognomy. Well, he is a face, but he is a very powerful one, not a quack's trick. It can be said that through some academics or his own set of theories, he can calculate speculation, good or bad luck, astronomy, and so on.

Having said that, do you feel that during the Three Kingdoms period, there was a great god, Zhuge Liang, whom we all admired. He seemed to be very talented in this respect. After all, he knows astronomy above and geography below, but by the way, he called for a storm. In fact, it is just one of the professional abilities of the master.

In fact, a serious physiognomist knows a lot, because there is too much knowledge involved, so he has to help others calculate. It also involves a lot of knowledge reserves, such as humanities, social geography, customs and so on. Even Mr. Jianghu can talk about flowers with his mouth, and there are some goods, which makes people feel that this is the case. If not, I will come back to you with a smile.

Naturally, some people in this line of work are really tired, some are just trying to make a living, and more are just lying, but lying is also their skill.
