In the vast culture of ancient China, there was a little-known but unfathomable discipline - the search for secrets in hand. This knowledge, passed down from generation to generation, has accumulated countless wisdom and experience. Legend has it that people who are proficient in this art can analyze their future destiny through the lines, whether it is a sweet love affair or the ups and downs of their careers.
In this mysterious learning, the wise men of ancient times summed up a lot of empirical words in order to better interpret the patterns in their hands. And there is a widely circulated saying - the "golden fish" hidden in the palm. So, what does this mysterious fish look like and what does it mean?
Palmistry, an ancient discipline, may have originated in India, according to historical records. Because the oldest palmistry materials found so far are preserved in some ancient monument murals in India. However, many scholars and researchers also tend to believe that this discipline has its own origins and development in China, India, and the West, eventually giving rise to three distinct cultural schools of palmistry.
As early as the Zhou Dynasty, more than 3,000 years ago, there were various records of palmistry, which is enough to show that the ancients were very interested and enthusiastic about interpreting palmistry.
With the passage of times and the change of dynasties, countless masters of palmistry have emerged, constantly improving and carrying forward this knowledge. In the Western Han Dynasty, a master of palmistry named Xu Ying gathered the essence of all parties, combined with his own deep understanding of palmistry, and compiled a classic work called "Xiangshou". This work is regarded as the first academic work in China to systematically discuss palmistry, providing great learning convenience for future generations.
The science of palm mainly explores the human palm, more specifically, the study of palm prints. Just as people today apply fingerprint unlocking on mobile phones, the ancients firmly believed that everyone's palm print is unique, and there will not be two palm prints that are exactly the same. Therefore, palm prints become a window into a person's personality, destiny and career development, which also forms the basis of the core theory of palmistry.
For most people, palmistry may not be their field of study, and it is only natural that it is not a craft they use for a living. In ancient times, fortune tellers were usually the ones who studied palmistry.
When it comes to fortune tellers, people often associate them with those in costume dramas who sit in corners and are not cared for. In reality, however, fortune-telling has its own prosperity. When people are constantly seeking numerology, it is too cumbersome to find scriptures, so many fortune tellers summarize many easy-to-understand aphorisms in their daily practice so that they can be taught and applied in the future.
"Treasure in the palm of the hand, wealth is destined" is a popular exposition of palmistry by people who interpreted fate in ancient times.
To deeply understand such a sentence, we must first analyze the "Jinbao" in its connotation. So, what exactly is "Jinbao"? In fact, it does not refer to the actual gold object, but to a specific pattern in the palm of the hand.
In the palm of our hand, between the thumb and the little finger are lines such as lifelines and career lines, and the angles between these lines that resemble ancient gold ingots are called "gold treasures", otherwise they are not considered so. As a result, "Jinbao" also has another name - "Yuanbao pattern".
The first part of this sentence, "palm hidden gold treasure", can also be understood as "palm hidden yuan treasure pattern". Since this "ingot" is located in the palm of the hand, it can be held by people, so there is a saying of "palm hidden ingots pattern". Combined with the second part, the meaning of this expression is that if a person has a pattern like an ingot's treasure in his palm, then he is a person who is born to enjoy wealth and honor, rich and rich.
Further, the characteristics of the ingot, such as the size of the ingot, the direction of the grain, etc., will also affect the fate of the owner of the grain. If the ingots are below the emotional line, it indicates that its owner has a very high emotional intelligence and is good at interpersonal communication; If the ingots and human tattoos complement each other, it indicates that the person is naturally intelligent and has a talent for investment. The intertwined ingots symbolize that its owner is a man with high fortune and will be rich all the way in the future.
However, palmistry also points out that people with ingots do not necessarily enjoy wealth, such as a very common pointed ingot. People with such ingots are often more sensitive, easy to feel vulnerable, have a strong dependence on others, and are prone to inferiority.
There is some truth in this statement, and its accuracy is verified in most cases, so let me elaborate on it too quickly.
Today, the idea that "destiny is in one's own hands, not under it" is widely known. Everyone is the master of their own destiny, and what you did yesterday will trigger corresponding repercussions today, which is what people often call cause and effect.
This causal logic is universally recognized, and its existence has a solid theoretical basis that allows us to predict the future based on it. For example, if you are committed to learning, then I can infer that you will get excellent grades at the end of the semester.
However, palmistry seems mysterious, and it seems difficult to convince people who have received nine years of compulsory education. But in fact, this is more due to people's misunderstanding of palmistry. In fact, palmistry is equally scientific.
Palmistry is not a discipline divorced from science and logic. Instead, it integrates knowledge of biology, psychology and other aspects, and explores the individual's personality, destiny and other information from the patterns of the human palm. This is not a simple imagination, but has its profound academic foundation and research background.
It is often said that everyone's life is an unfinished novel. In this novel, each of us is the protagonist, and everyone's palm is like a catalog of the novel, recording the protagonist's character, experience and possible future fate. Although we cannot rely solely on palmistry to determine a person's future, by learning and understanding palmistry, we can indeed obtain some information about an individual's personality and tendencies.
People should open their hearts to understand and learn palmistry with a more open and inclusive mind, rather than just seeing it as a metaphysics that lacks scientific basis. In this process, we can gradually find that palmistry does contain some unique insights into human nature and destiny, which can provide us with more thoughts about life and human nature.
