Although modern society is a society that advocates science, various fortune tellings are still popular. Most families in rural areas have had their fortunes calculated once or even multiple times. For fortune tellers engaged in this business, the accuracy of fortune telling is very important, otherwise they will close down or change careers due to lack of business. And in almost every county-based area, there are one or two people who are accurate fortune tellers.
So how do fortune tellers get their predictions? The first is set. Each fortune teller will have a proper chat with the fortune teller at the beginning. During the chat, the fortune teller will use various methods, such as inner hints or going around in circles, etc., to find out some of the true situation of the fortune teller. , of course, most of the people being counted didn’t know it at this time. This is the first and most critical information captured by the calculator, which will determine whether he is "successful". When calculating the results, make logical inferences based on the information told by the person being calculated. According to the general laws of life, at this time, reasoning towards the conclusion with the highest probability will have the highest success rate. In this process, in order to cover up their own fortune-telling procedures, fortune tellers often use false logical theories to tell the people being counted how they became like this or reached this point. For example, for a middle-aged man with a haggard face and skinny appearance, the fortune teller will tell him that because your birth date indicates something evil, you will have bad luck in this life and will have a hard life, etc., to confuse others. Real fortune telling steps.
The second reason why fortune-telling is accurate is the deception of knowledge by ignorance. For example, in the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, most physical problems will be reflected in the face, but when a traditional Chinese medicine doctor diagnoses a disease based on sight, smell, inquiry, and close examination, everyone will It feels normal. But if you are in the hands of a fortune teller, he will deduce your body based on your complexion. Then he will not talk about your physical condition, but will go directly to make conclusions about your personality and living conditions in life. Only how many people do you have? If he tells you something right, it will give the illusion that the fortune teller is accurate.
The third accurate reason is that there are certain reasons behind the appearance. Fortune telling is a professional job and can be said to read a wide range of people. For example, a fortune teller tells a 30-40 year old man that you have problems at work, or tells a younger woman that she has emotional troubles. It can be said that every shot has a hundred hits. For a 50-year-old person, it is probably not wrong to say that you were very miserable when you were young, because the whole of China was poor at that time. Of course, the fortune teller will not tell you this. He will skip a few steps and tell you the result directly, leaving you to admire his accuracy. From a scientific perspective, as long as we discover and understand the laws of nature or society, we can grasp the ins and outs of things.
In the actual fortune-telling process, several methods are often used in combination to make fortune-telling appear more scientific and better to confuse people. One common phenomenon among all fortune-telling activities is that they all require the person’s birth date and horoscope. Among the reasons why fortune telling is accurate analyzed above, it obviously has nothing to do with this thing, so what is the purpose of its appearance. We may be able to know the answer by understanding the fortune-telling process. Fortune-tellers are also ordinary people. They know that their fortune-telling tricks will be exposed by many people. In order to keep this job from being snatched away by smart people, they have introduced thresholds such as birth date and horoscope. In today's social situation, there will be no shortage of smart people, but there is definitely a shortage of people who are skilled in using fortune-telling "professional knowledge" such as birth dates, zodiac signs, heavenly stems and earthly branches. In this way, they can easily exclude you from the fortune-telling circle, which is in vain. It is difficult for people with high IQ to join my circle and share money. But as the saying goes, success is also a failure. Although the birth date has blocked foreign invaders, it also tied the fortune-telling industry to a superstitious frame. In fact, it is easy to break this birth date smoke bomb. You can say that my birth time is the same as that of a certain high official or even a great man. This will remove the step for fortune tellers to calculate your destiny based on your birth date. Also, fortune tellers who generally have fixed points do not tell fortunes on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar calendar. It is said that evil spirits are too strong and they cannot tell fortunes. In fact, this is the need for their bodies to take a rest. But fortune tellers who set up stalls do not have such rules. Obviously their income is low and they are more like migrant workers in the fortune telling circle. They only care about making money and not rest.
The game of fortune-telling is like Zhou Yu hitting the yellow lid, one wishes and the other wishes. People are keen on fortune telling mainly because they want to predict the future in advance so as to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune. This is human nature. Because fortune tellers claim to be possessed by gods, this often makes them think that they have abilities beyond ordinary people and can accomplish things that ordinary people cannot do. In addition, people now have a lot of confusion about their destiny in life. The explosion of social information has made these people lack the ability to think independently and cannot seek answers, so they turn to various fortune telling. Among those whose fortunes are told, there is another type of people who are high-ranking officials. These people are often rich and have status, but they will also go to some famous fortune tellers to have their fortunes told. Of course, the fortune tellers must have accurately figured out their thoughts. Such people seek Fortune telling is equivalent to praying for yourself, praying that you can live such a rich and prosperous life in the future, so as long as you say nice things to them, you can be sure that you will not go wrong. These people are the main reason why the market for fortune-telling activities exists.
In the fortune-telling circle, there is another special phenomenon that many fortune-tellers have physical disabilities. Although we cannot accurately know whether his disability occurred before or after the fortune-telling began, it is undeniable that Fortune-telling is the most suitable profession that his body can handle.
In fact, the easiest way to expose the mystery of fortune tellers is: can you tell your own destiny?
