Liu Heng's Annotations: Ancient Physiognomy Secrets (Part One)

In today's world, feeling out of control is sometimes inevitable. As we navigate a complex society, it's crucial to distinguish between right and wrong, loyalty and betrayal, and good and evil. Having a keen sense of judgment is essential. While experience provides valuable insights, physiognomy serves as an excellent tool for understanding people. Liu Heng's ancient secrets of physiognomy can teach you how to assess, recognize, and make the most of interactions with others, helping you to foresee and protect yourself from deceitful individuals.

1. Wide Face with a Long Nose

The nose is often associated with a person's cunning nature. Individuals with long noses may be scheming and should be approached cautiously to prevent manipulation. Those with elongated faces tend to overthink, act self-servingly, and lack openness. Women with rectangular faces are often bold and competitive, frequently challenging men.

2. Protruding or Sunken Eyes

Individuals with protruding eyes are typically strong-willed, destructive, and ruthless, showing no mercy in their actions. Conversely, those with sunken eyes are sly, introverted, and often anxious and suspicious.

3. Tiger Eyebrows

Tiger eyebrows are thick and prominent, peaking at the ends. People with tiger eyebrows are bold, meticulous, emotional, and thoughtful. They are adventurous, strategic, decisive, and value relationships while adhering to principles in their work.

4. Ghost Eyebrows

Ghost eyebrows grow in an opposite direction and are twisted. People with ghost eyebrows tend to be stubborn and often act independently, using unconventional methods. Those with thick and wide ghost eyebrows may act recklessly and possess a strong desire for control.

5. Downturned Lips

Individuals with downturned lips may appear depressed, pessimistic, anxious, eccentric, changeable, and stubborn. This lip shape, known as "boat-shaped mouth" or "carp mouth," often signals a tendency to complain and discrepancies between thoughts and words. Women with this lip shape may experience multiple marriages, while men may feel lonely, often prioritizing family over friendships. Those with downturned lips and malicious eyes tend to be cunning, greedy, and cruel.

6. Triangular Eyes

Individuals with triangular eyes tend to be deceitful and manipulative, with a propensity for ruthless behavior. If such individuals also have sinister-looking eyes, they may possess wicked and malicious hearts; paired with a high nose, they might be reclusive and unfeeling. Those with evil-looking eyes are difficult to trust and likely harbor ulterior motives. Liu Heng notes that ancient texts caution, "A woman with triangular eyes may bring harm to her husband," so proceed carefully.

7. Women with Forehead Scars

In physiognomy, the forehead is known as the "heavenly court" (Liu Heng notes that this area, between the hairline and eyebrows, represents intelligence and future prospects). Women with blemishes on their foreheads often face family difficulties that affect their marital happiness. Since the forehead symbolizes life aspirations, any blemishes or scars can impede achieving one's goals.

8. Individuals with Wide Foreheads

Ancient wisdom states: "A full heavenly court leads to official positions, while a square earthly grid holds great power." Liu Heng adds that a straight nose signifies immense wealth. A wide forehead indicates intelligence and high social status; women with wide foreheads may find it challenging to be controlled by men.

9. Individuals with Three Hair Whorls: Great Figures or Villains

Hair whorls are an external manifestation of liver energy. Those with multiple whorls often have strong liver energy, being bold, meticulous, and unwilling to yield, which can lead to significant achievements. Loyalty and treachery are mirrored in their eyes; those with kind eyes and many whorls often achieve greatness, while those with malicious eyes and many whorls may become notorious villains.

10. Close-Set Teeth

Individuals with closely packed teeth often have robust kidney energy, leading to fertility, intelligence, and academic success. Those with widely spaced teeth may have a tendency towards dishonesty (as they struggle to keep secrets). People with large gaps between their teeth may behave erratically and have difficulty restraining themselves.
