The psychic aspect of life is a well documented and well respected part of the Chinese culture and psychics in various forms find ready acceptance amongst them. In particular, fortune telling or fate calculating is especially popular. Most Chinese fortune telling methods involve calculations of some sort and often they involve enormous amounts of statistical data.
Bazi, one such method, involves a lot of mathematics and is akin to astrology. Like in astrology, there are similar calculations involved using the date, time and year of birth. This, the most popular and accessible method, also called the four pillar method of Chinese fortune telling involves the four numbers of birth year, birth month, birth date and birth time and makes predictions based on that. Another name is Bazi or Ziping Bazi after Master Ziping who invented it. The four parameters of time at birth are taken and analysed against the Daymaster, to get that individual’s predictions in the areas of life, love and work for that day. The four pillar method is very popular for determining the best career option to choose among many Chinese. When the four parameters are taken and analysed against the year, instead of the day, the predictions for the year are obtained. This is how the fortunes for the Chinese fortune telling for your birth year are written each year.
The Chinese are also very adept at face reading and at palm reading. In fact such readings are a staple part of Chinese fortune telling. Face reading should not be interpreted incorrectly, as the same as is used in the context of body language, rather it is method of determining character based on the position, size and appearance of the different facial features like nose, mouth, eyes, forehead, ears etc. Chinese experts who specialize in face reading have extensive catalogues that guide them in making predictions for the person based on the arrangement of their features. There are well established techniques that correlate different areas of the face to different problems and different ages. The lowest part of the face gives the expert answers for the client’s old age, the middle part of his face for middle age and the top part for his childhood and youth.
Chi-Chi sticks are also very well known in the west as a typical Chinese fortune telling method. A bamboo cylinder filled with incense sticks on which are etched Chinese characters, is shaken and the predictions made based on the marking of the stick that comes out when the shook.
Divination is also a very important part of Chinese thought. I Ching, the ancient text was used by many to make predictions for the multitudes, though the literate elite disdained it as a divination tool.
Fair Psychics
Have you ever been to the county fair and seen the tent set up for the lady that gives the psychic readings to do her work in it?
Spirit Guided Life
Do all psychics use spirit guides? That is like asking do all baseball players bat right handed. Of course they do not because they are each individuals and they each have talents that the other one may or may not have them.
