Facial Features Believed to Influence One’s Fortune

Everyone’s facial features are unique. In face reading, their shapes and colors are thought to reflect different kinds of fortune, and each feature corresponds to a particular stage of life. When a feature is well-formed, the fortune for that stage is likely to be favorable; if there are flaws, luck may be hindered. Below, Master Hongxiang shares insights on the life stages governed by facial features and their associated fortunes, in the hope that this knowledge is helpful to all.

1. 【Ears】

For men, the left ear represents fortune from ages one to seven, while the right ear represents ages eight to fourteen. For women, it’s the opposite.

The outer rim of the ear is likened to a warehouse, while the inner ear structures represent the goods stored inside. If the outer rim encompasses the inner structures and the rim is plump and well-defined, it indicates abundant blessings, a worry-free life, support from benefactors, and the ability to inherit family wealth. If the outer rim is large but the inner structures are flat and bony, it suggests limited childhood fortune and less help from benefactors. If the ear cartilage protrudes and the outer rim does not encompass the inner structures, it may lead to financial losses and conflicts with parents.

1. If the ears sit significantly lower than the eyebrows, or if they are deformed or missing, it indicates a turbulent, obstructed youth. For men, a missing left ear suggests misfortune for the father first, while a missing right ear suggests misfortune for the mother first; for women, this is reversed.

2. Ears that are hard yet thick indicate longevity; long, thick ears also suggest wealth.

3. Pale or rosy ears indicate fame and fortune, while dark-colored ears suggest declining luck.

4. If there are moles in the ear canal, it indicates good financial luck, the potential for hidden treasures, and is a sign of blessings and longevity.

5. Ears that sit higher than the eyebrows suggest prosperity in youth.

If there are ear defects, aside from cosmetic surgery, the best option is to grow long hair to cover the ears, which is believed to mitigate unfavorable youth luck and lessen negative impacts on benefactors and blessings.

2. 【Eyebrows】

Governs fortune from ages thirty-one to thirty-four.

If the eyebrows are broom-shaped—dense at the head and scattered at the tail—it indicates financial loss and business setbacks; if both ends are full and even, it suggests a well-rounded approach to tasks. If the eyebrows grow in reverse, it points to a rough path.

1. Connected eyebrows signify blocked fortune and many obstacles.

2. Many upright hairs within the brows suggest potential legal troubles and financial worries.

3. Very thick brows that cover the skin weigh down fortune, making the first half of life difficult; sparse brows suggest limited wealth.

4. Short eyebrows indicate poverty and little support from relatives.

5. Brows that sit too close to the eyes suggest weak financial luck and a lack of assets.

6. Upturned brow tails indicate lofty ambitions; downturned tails suggest kindness and compassion.

If the eyebrows are damaged, unruly, or poorly shaped, they should be groomed for balance and harmony to improve the overall effect.

3. 【Eyes】

Governs fortune from ages thirty-five to forty.

1. Horizontal blood vessels in the eyes are said to indicate potential blood pressure issues or heart problems; vertical vessels in the lower whites suggest digestive system issues; vertical vessels in the upper whites indicate liver concerns.

2. Protruding eyes suggest a fiery temperament and irritability.

3. Bright, lively eyes indicate happiness and joy.

4. Excessive tearing, like a small pool, suggests romantic luck.

5. Red, yellow, or darkened eye whites indicate poor fortune, difficulties in endeavors, and a need to be cautious about kidney issues.

If the eyes are not in good condition or have defects, wearing glasses can help balance their appearance.

4. 【Nose】

Governs fortune from ages forty-one to fifty and signals financial luck.

1. A full nose that does not reveal the nostrils indicates smooth financial fortune.

2. A pointed nose suggests a tumultuous career, a narrow social circle, and a hasty personality.

3. A bulbous nose indicates that men may gain power and fortune in middle age, while women may bring good fortune to their husbands and children.

4. A bony bridge suggests troubled luck, communication difficulties, and complications in endeavors.

5. Exposed nostrils indicate potential financial losses.

If the nostrils are exposed, it’s advisable to grow facial hair for coverage.

5. 【Mouth】

Governs fortune from ages fifty-one to sixty.

1. A large mouth with rosy lips and slightly upturned corners is a good sign; a pointed mouth with thin lips indicates poverty and low status.

2. A mouth that moves frequently without speaking suggests inner unrest.

3. Thin lips indicate a tendency to gossip, especially if the corners are downturned.

4. A thick upper lip suggests rationality; a thick upper with a thin lower lip indicates cunning. A thick lower lip suggests emotionality; a thick lower with a thin upper lip indicates indecisiveness in action.

5. Dark, purplish lips indicate a life of struggle and warrant caution regarding chronic illnesses.

Applying lip balm helps keep the lips smooth, and keeping the mouth closed can prevent tooth exposure. Smiling often can lift the corners of the mouth, and if there are defects, growing facial hair can provide coverage.
