Classic
Chinese Face Reading
12 Houses
22 March 2006.
Face Reading (physiognomy) provides
handy insights into your hidden personality,
past history, current situation and future
development. Your face is like your autobiography that is open to
everyone to read. In short, your face reveals
your fate.
Classic Chinese Face
Reading originally derived from Daoist
philosophy, and the oldest
Chinese writing on this topic is commonly
credited to Mr. Guiguzi (Ghost Valley
Scholar: 481-221 BC), whose work is still in
print to this very day.
Traditionally, Face
Reading to Chinese was a lot more than merely
another way of fortune telling. When Chinese
medicine is concerned, it is as relevant
today as it was in ancient China, frequently
used to help build patient’s mental and physical
profiles to aid diagnosis and treatment.
There are numerous
ways to read a face in Chinese physiognomy: 3
Quarters, 8 Trigrams, 108 Spots, examining
the shapes, the colours, the wrinkles and the
moles, just to name a few. A master of face
reader usually employs the combination of
several techniques to gain multiple
perspectives and perform cross-examination.
Following is a brief
introduction to the 12 Houses method.

1,
Fortune
House (Fude Gong)
It
gives an overview of your general fortune
trend. An ideal Fortune House should be
round, full and smooth with no visible marks,
lines or scars. Flaws in these areas reflect
problems in your life, which can be in the
form of bad health, distressful relationships
or money troubles.

2, Parents
House (Fumu
Gong)
It is
associated with Heaven Luck, in this regard
its state is quite a testimony to the
situation that your parents were in and your
relationship with them.
A
forehead that is wide, round and shinning
speaks of a good family inheritance, a
comfortable upbringing and early achievement,
while a small, bony or disfigured one
illustrates an uneasy childhood.

3, Career
House (Guanlu Gong)
Again,
being broad, round and smooth is the basic
criteria to identify a good Career House.
If on
the top of that, you also have prominent
cheekbones and protruding eyebrows, you shall
have a great chance to achieve a great
success in your chosen field.

4,
House of Travel (Qianyi
Gong)
If it
is in any way disfigured with scars or deep
lines, you might be better off saying put.
Furthermore, jobs or businesses involving
transportation, tourism or import/export are,
understandably, not your best choice.

5, Life
House (Ming Gong)
The
key to your fortune is deposited here.
Naturally,
being smooth and shinny is ideal, which
suggests a trouble-free life journey. If it
is receded, dimpled or scared; or there are
permanent horizontal lines between the brows;
or eyebrows meet in the middle, you may face
a bumping road ahead.

6,
House of Siblings
(Xiongdi Gong)
It is
represented by eyebrows and the areas
directly above them, and it also oversees
your relationship with your friends and
colleagues.
The
state of your hair has a direct connection to
the physical conditions of your parents at
the time when you were conceived, which means
it has a lot to do with your genetic
make-ups. Brows that are dark, thick, long,
smooth, orderly and located high above eyes
indicate a healthy hormone level that gives
rise to affection, calmness and courage. If
they look sparse, thin, pale, short, or
chaotic, or too close to eyes, or marked with
a scar, you could be tormented by your own
physical or emotional states.

7, Assets House (Tianzhai
Gong)
Your
eyes betray your intelligence and
temperament, and the very quality of these
dispositions plays important role in your
asset acquisition endeavour.
Good
Asset Houses are constituted with eyes that
are long with large pupils and clear whites,
and up-eyelids that are broad and full.
Deep-set or dazed eyes disclose dumbness,
while recessed or narrow eyelids exhibit
impatience. If the whites are coloured with
red streaks, and worse, if the streaks pass
through a pupil, you should brave yourself
for a severe storm when your financial aspect
is concerned.

8,
House of Marriage
(Qiqie Gong)
Being
full and smooth in appearance indicates a
happy marriage. A receded House however rings
alarm bell on extra marital affairs. If the
area bears visible spots, scars, black moles
or messy lines, your marriage could be in
serious trouble due to some unscrupulous
conduct.

9,
House of Children
(Ernu Gong)
This
area is closely related to cerebellum and
also governs your love and sex life, so
again, being full and round is better than
being flat or receded. Dim moles or slant
lines across the area are especially
undesirable, suggesting some problems
regarding your own sex life or your children’s
future development.

10, Health
House (Jie
Going)
If
the House is broken or marked with horizontal
lines, or if it is stained with spots, marks
or discolouration, you shall pay extra
attention to your health, especially your
digester system.
Back to Diagram
11, Wealth
House (Caibo
Gong)
A
nose that has high and straight bridge, big
and round tip, full and fleshy wings, and
invisible nostrils, not only indicates sound
physical health, a positive mental attitude,
also denotes success in career and abundance
in wealth.
On
the other hand, a nose that is low, or
crooked, pointed, or narrow, bony, or with
contoured bridge, upturned tip, visible
nostrils, reveal a problematic personality, a
troublesome financial situation or a
difficult career path. If blood vassals are
clearly visible, or a dim blue colour tones
the surface, an illness or a money loss is on
the way. When a nose turns bloody red, which
is dubbed Fire in Lounge
in Chinese physiognomy, it should be viewed
as a serious warning sign - an impending
disaster is near.

12, Popularity
House (Nupu Going)
This
House rules your relationship with your
colleagues, subordinates or younger
generations, and foretells your situation in
your old age.
When
they are round and full, you can expect to
enjoy your popularity among your followers.
But if it sharps off, or appears crooked or
bony, you probably should forget your dream
about being a politician. And what’s more,
you’d better prepare for self-support
during old age.
Back to Diagram
Marks, spots, scars
on, and even shapes of your face can change
over time, meaning your fate can alter
through the years.
You can utilise your Man
Power (your attitudes -
good deeds, better learning and hard work)
and the Earth Power
(your environment - favourable Feng
Shui) to neutralise the
Heaven Power (your
time of birth - what you have inherited from
your parents and your previous lives).
Ultimately, you are
the real creator of your own fate. When you
change your heart, you change your face; when
you change your face, you change your fate.
