As the saying goes, "Sometimes there must be something in fate, and there is no time to demand it in fate", these two sentences warn people to know how to "obey the destiny" when facing their unpredictable fate. However, in the history of our country, there is no shortage of xiangshu masters who can predict fate, such as Xu Negative and Yan Junping in the Western Han Dynasty, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng in the Tang Dynasty, all of which have spread the miracle of predicting fate.
Speaking of Yuan Tiangang, this strange person who wrote down the "Push Back Map" with Li Chunfeng who can predict the future not only has an amazing recognition of people and makes many accurate predictions, but also through a magical word measurement: "Wang" the word is less than one stroke, and the person being tested decides the direction of his life at the first time he thinks of which word. Is Yuan Tiangang really such a divine skill?
First, look at acquaintances and make accurate predictions
Later, Yuan Tiangang, who was known for his superb xiangshu, was born quite lonely and poor. However, just as the so-called "people are poor and ambitious", Yuan Tiangang has been very interested in the theory of yin and yang five elements such as astronomical numbers since he was a child, and has become a skilled Xiangshi with extraordinary talent, and the ability to see acquaintances is quite remarkable.
During the Year of Daye, Yuan Tiangang traveled in Luoyang City to see the picture, and met Du Yan, Wang Jue, and Wei Ting, who came to see him. After some observation, Yuan Tiangang found that Du Yan's face was full of Lantai and his ears were wide, and he asserted that he could live in the imperial history and would be appreciated for his literary style. Wang Jue, who was well-proportioned in the court, would also receive the position of Wupin, while Wei Ting would be like a tiger and would become an official by virtue of his martial arts.
In addition, Yuan Tiangang also asserted that Du Yan and the other three would be deposed together in twenty years. Sure enough, Du Yan, Wang Jue, and Wei Ting did indeed go to their careers as Yuan Tiangang said, and they were all deposed twenty years later for different reasons.
In addition, Yuan Tiangang made fortune-telling for many high-ranking officials and nobles who were active inside and outside the imperial court at that time, and the prophecies he made also withstood the test of time, and then they were fulfilled one by one. This made Yuan Tiangang famous and highly sought after by people. Among the many prophecies made by Yuan Tiangang, the most famous of them is Yuan Tiangang's prophecy for Wu Zetian.
When Wu Zetian was a baby, her family invited Yuan Tiangang to see him. Yuan Tiangang looked at the Wu family one by one and predicted that Wu Zetian's brothers would become nobles. When it was Wu Zetian's turn, the Wu family lied that this was a baby boy, and Yuan Tiangang said after a bit of a look that this baby dragon eye phoenix neck, if it was a girl, would definitely become the lord of the world.
There are many more stories about Yuan Tiangang seeing acquaintances, and what is even more amazing is that Yuan Tiangang also has a set of literacy techniques based on word measurement: "Wang" will become what word if it is less than a stroke, and the first reaction of the person asked indicates the direction of his fate. This may sound like an incredible word-measuring game, but what's going on?
Second, "three" is "soil", with different personalities
The word "king" has a supreme meaning because of its oracle bone shape similar to the axe used in the conquest. With the evolution of glyphs, after gradually writing "king", it was explained as: "Three paintings are connected to each other, called the king". The ancients believed that the "|" in the middle of the word "king" Connecting the three realms of heaven, earth and man, it symbolizes power and lofty status.
Yuan Tiangang believes that when the first thought of measuring words is to remove the middle "I", that is, when the word "Wang" is less than one stroke is "three", it shows that this person is kind-hearted, does not have a strong desire for power and status, and at the same time does not think much about the relationship between things, and has an open mind.
When it is believed that the word "king" should be a "soil" word, it shows that this person values the foundation in doing things, can be solid and hardworking in his own strengths, is quite charismatic, is quite good at dealing with people, and can often achieve something. At the same time, such people should also remember to be modest and cautious, not to fly high, and to be proud and complacent because of their achievements.
Third, for the "work" easy, for the "dry" agile
If you remove one of the strokes in the word "Wang", the first thing that comes to mind is the word "Gong", because the original meaning of the word "Gong" has the meaning of "decoration and repair", Yuan Tiangang believes that such people can adapt well to the external environment and show a magnanimity. Even if such a person encounters adversity and hardships, he will also survive with his unique character.
And with such a person, the other party can often be considerate of their own difficulties, so it must be very pleasant to get along. In Yuan Tiangang's view, the "worker" type of person will be the darling in social occasions, and it can be said that it is easy to mix in the crowd.
If you remove a stroke of the word "king" and the first thing that comes to mind is "dry", such a person will be the most agile and capable person. "Dry" symbolizes action, so people who think of this word are quick and decisive, and their ability to act is far beyond the average person.
Therefore, such people who think of the word "dry" often act more than words in their dealings with people, and have the advantage of being agile and decisive, but they may also lack proper and complete thinking when dealing with things, and they are prone to act recklessly. Therefore, such people should think more before acting, and avoid doing bad things with good intentions.
It can be seen that Yuan Tiangang secretly divided different judgment criteria with a wonderful word-breaking game, and used the selected words to explore a person's personality and conduct, which can be described as a divine skill. Through specific analysis, it is not difficult to see that Yuan Tiangang's set of phase techniques for measuring words and recognizing people also implies a certain scientific truth.
brief summary:
As one of the top xiangshu masters in the Tang Dynasty, Yuan Tiangang received many praises from that time and later generations, and even Tang Taizong Li Shimin once praised Yuan Tiangang's xiangshu as comparable to Yan Junping in the Western Han Dynasty. Judging from the many accurate predictions that Yuan Tiangang had made, Yuan Tiangang did have real talent and practical learning.
Then again, Yuan Tiangang's word-reading and human physiognomy distinguishes between four types of people, but in fact, it is based on the different attitudes of different people to the same issue to speculate on their personality and conduct. This method seems to be difficult to reproduce today, but its principle seems to be the same as the psychological test that is very popular today. It can be seen that behind Yuan Tiangang's clever calculations, there are also some sciences.
