Which types of men are likely to live a long life?
Thread Content
1: A long philtrum indicates a long life. The philtrum should be in the form of a groove, long and wide with clear contours, and the lips should be plump. Senior* officials generally have features similar to those of a person with a prominent nose; they not only enjoy abundant fortune and prosperity but also possess composure and a long life. With a full lower lip, they possess an extraordinary mindset; they have a perspective that goes beyond that of ordinary people, the capacity to include others, the ability to achieve things, and a positive attitude. II: Long life is achieved with well-developed ear bones. Ear bones, also known as jawbones, are the protruding bones located at the back of both ears. When touched by hand, there is a bone bulging behind the ear, about the size of a thumb. With such protruding ear bones, the ears generally grow close to the head. A man with ears close to his head enjoys a long life and enduring prosperity. A woman’s ears should be perked up, as if pulled upward. The ears should be close to the head, without any outward bulging; they should have drooping tips. The color should not be dull – if they lack luster and appear gray and lifeless, it indicates a deficiency in kidney energy, which affects the appearance. 3: A firm nasal bone indicates a long life. The bone of the nose is linked to one’s lifespan; it should be prominent and not flat or weak. If it lacks strength, then financial prosperity will be lacking as well. If the nasal bone is weak, one will suffer from illnesses throughout life, and there are likely to be problems with overall health. Although the nose is straight, it feels soft and weak to the touch, lacking firmness; thus, despite a good life, it indicates early death. IV: Beautiful eyebrows indicate a long life. Eyebrows are referred to as the palace of longevity; fortune-telling texts say that \"long, hanging eyebrows guarantee a long life.\" The traditional medical text ‘Nei Jing’ states: “Those with beautiful eyebrows have abundant blood and qi in the Taiyang meridian.” ； Those with a frown have less vital energy.” In other words, thick, long, and lush eyebrows indicate a strong flow of energy in the body, physical strength, and longevity. Conversely, thin and sparse eyebrows that are dry and falling out indicate a deficiency in blood and qi, weakness, and frequent illness, signaling poor health. Therefore, if the eyebrows have an appropriate density, a moderate thickness, are delicate and curved, neat and shiny, with the ends slightly bent downward, such eyebrows signify longevity. 5: Strong and dense teeth lead to a long life. It is said in the Taiyi Zhaoshen Jing that \"those whose teeth are neatly arranged and strong will live a long life.\" Those whose teeth are neatly aligned and firm, without any movement, can live a long life. Dense teeth lead to strong bones; strong bones ensure that the marrow is abundant, which facilitates the production of blood and body fluids. When essence and blood are sufficient, the spirit remains vigorous. And strong teeth that can tear up food enable the body to get the nutrients it needs. To be able to eat and drink, one needs good teeth. 6: Longevity is achieved when no breathing sound is heard. Not hearing any breathing sound actually means practicing the breath of a turtle – just like a turtle, with no audible breathing sound. With a calm mind and steady pulse, along with a positive attitude and the ability to remain composed, one’s mental state is good; as a result, the vital energy does not become agitated or overheated. The flow of the five elements within the body is smooth, the inner universe functions properly, and the aura is strong. Thus, it is possible to understand nature and act in harmony with it, leading to a long life. Hohhot Fuda Traditional Chinese Medicine Gastroenterology Hospital
