Physiognomy (Xiang)

Overview

概述

Physiognomy Art (相術, Xiang Shu) is the art of reading form — both the form of the environment (Feng Shui) and the form of the human body (Mian Xiang, palm reading). Feng Shui (風水) assesses the configuration of Qi in the landscape and built environment to optimise conditions for health, wealth, and harmonious living. Mian Xiang (面相, face reading) reads the energetic imprint of destiny on the features of the face.

相術為「讀形」之藝——包括環境形勢的堪輿（風水）與人體形相的判讀（面相、手相）。風水評估山川與建築環境中的氣場配置，以優化健康、財富與和諧居住條件；面相則從容貌特徵解讀命運的能量印記。

Feng Shui Fundamentals

風水基礎

Feng Shui operates through several classical schools: San He (三合), San Yuan (三元), Xuan Kong Flying Stars (玄空飛星), and Ba Zhai (八宅), among others. The Luopan (羅盤) compass — with its 24 Mountains (二十四山), trigram rings, and star charts — is the core instrument of the Feng Shui practitioner. The Liuren Fajiao platform provides a digital Luopan alongside XuanKong, BaZhai, Da Xuan Kong, and Fu Xing Shui Fa builders.

風水運作於多個古典流派：三合、三元、玄空飛星、八宅等。羅盤——涵蓋二十四山、八卦諸環及飛星圖——為堪輿師的核心工具。六壬法教平台提供數位羅盤，及玄空、八宅、大玄空、伏星水法等格局工具。

Mian Xiang — Face Reading

面相

Mian Xiang maps destiny through the features of the face. The forehead relates to early life and Heaven luck; the middle face (nose and cheeks) to middle life and Human luck; the lower face (mouth and chin) to later life and Earth luck. Twelve palaces of the face correspond to major life domains, and the energetic quality of each area reflects the interplay of Heaven, Earth, and Human luck in the individual's destiny.

面相透過面部特徵映照命運。額部對應早年與天運；中庭（鼻、顴）對應中年與人運；下停（口、頦）對應晚年與地運。面部十二宮對應各主要生命領域，各部位的能量質感反映個人命局中天地人三才的交匯。
