I have a say in this. Over the years, in order to study traditional Chinese culture, I have consulted a large number of ancient documents. The so-called numerology naming means that when naming a child or a store, you must take the birth date and horoscope into consideration at the same time. Numerology information such as heavenly stems and earthly branches, yin and yang and five elements, birth season, gender, industry affiliation, etc. That’s why it’s called “numerology naming.” This is what we Chinese mean when we say that names affect destiny. Our common naming of the Book of Changes, Zhouyi naming, eight-character naming, etc. are all just "fooling" methods used by laymen to deceive ordinary people who have little knowledge of traditional culture. In fact, they don't understand it themselves, and they still name you. What's even more ridiculous is that they still name you. Some people use the Japanese's "three talents and five patterns, and strokes to judge good and bad" as Chinese culture to promote it. His method was only introduced to the mainland in the 1990s, and so-called masters and experts still promote it everywhere. People with a little knowledge Everyone can see that that is nonsense. Now on the market, only Mr. Zhou Yinchan’s "Authentic Traditional Numerology Naming" is authentic. Although I have different opinions on some details, it is generally reliable. The rest of the "name science" sold online is all pieced together. , it doesn’t make sense at all. They are just pretending to be mysterious, trying to put money on their faces in order to gain fame and reputation, so as to increase their social status.
True and authentic traditional numerology naming has several characteristics. First, it must be well-founded. No matter what, numerology naming is just a branch on the big tree of traditional Chinese culture, and its roots are still traditional. Culturally, it is inseparable from ancient classics and historical books. Although ancient records are scattered, they can be checked. Secondly, they have sources. I saw the theoretical source of "Authentic Traditional Numerology Naming" in Zhu Xi's "Tai Chi Diagram Explanation" and in Zhou Dunyi's There are also "Tai Chi Pictures", and there are many records in the later Sikuquanshu. Everyone can check this. Third, there is logic. Chinese culture has been around since ancient times and has spread for thousands of years. Ancient philosophy is self-contained, complete and rigorous, and has a set of interlocking internal logics. The naming of numerology must be consistent with this logic. Match each other. For example, judging good and bad luck based on strokes cannot be integrated into traditional Chinese culture, because it is common knowledge that Chinese characters have multiple shapes, and one character can be written in multiple ways. Therefore, the so-called "masters and experts" are attached to the Kangxi Dictionary. How can it be I wonder if Kangxi has only been around for more than 200 years. If you look at the Kangxi Dictionary on Baidu, you will know why that old dictionary with more than 2,000 errors is still regarded as a standard.
Furthermore, it means being recognized. I participated in the discussion as a member of the expert committee when applying for the protection of national intangible cultural heritage. The vast majority of people here recognized Mr. Zhou’s book. Discussion. Hope this helps.
