Introduction:
In the feudal era, the old man's words were regarded as an irrefutable truth, and the colloquial culture prevailed and was passed down from generation to generation. The ancients had a single ideological concept and aesthetics, believed in physiognomy and palmistry, attached importance to the lifeline, wisdom line, and marriage line, and sought opportunities to change their fate. This article will delve into this traditional concept and analyze the singularity of ancient ideas, the importance of physiognomy and palmistry in ancient times, and how modern ideas have changed people's perception of destiny.
1. The unity of ancient ideological concepts and aesthetics
In ancient societies, the flow of information was slow, and the common people believed in the experience of the older generation and regarded their ideas as truth. Due to the lack of new knowledge, the ideological concepts and aesthetics of feudal society were very simple. The common people's preference for the rhetoric of the older generation leads the younger generation to repeat the life path of the older generation, and almost every generation in the family has a similar life.
Ancient societies have always been immersed in the shackles of tradition, and for the younger generation, the words of the old people have become their code of conduct. In feudal society, unlike the rich and diverse culture of modern times, the people's perception of the world is basically passed on by word of mouth of the older generation. This singularity is not limited to ideological concepts, but also permeates aesthetics. In that era, people's aesthetic standards were also shaped by the older generation, and they could not have much individuality and innovation.
For example, women's aesthetics in ancient times were mainly marked by "fairness", believing that fairness was a symbol of beauty. This concept has been passed down from generation to generation, and women will use various ways to maintain their fair skin, even at any cost. However, this singularity of aesthetic concepts makes women lack autonomy and cannot freely choose their own aesthetic standards.
2. The importance of physiognomy and palmistry in ancient times
Superstition was rife in ancient society, and people believed that physiognomy and palmistry could change fate. He has a wealth of knowledge in physiognomy and palmistry, and not only observes the palm lines, but also includes lifelines, wisdom lines, marriage lines, etc. The lifeline is seen as a key clue in the palm pattern, and the ancients studied how to prolong life. The wisdom line represents the wisdom of the mind and is concerned by parents in the hope that their children will achieve fame in the future. The marriage line has become the focus of women's attention, and the hand shape is related to wealth and wealth, affecting the fate of marriage.
Physiognomy and palmistry were seen in ancient times as important tools to change fate. It is believed that the lines of the palm of the hand can reveal the direction of a person's fate, so they often ask experts to interpret their palms in their lives. Experts in this field are highly respected, and their words are believed to have mystical powers that can guide people's lives.
The lifeline is one of the important lines that is believed to be related to the length of life. The pursuit of longevity was a common desire in ancient times, so many people would go out of their way to seek out physiognomy experts in the hope of extending their life by adjusting their lifestyle or making changes.
The wisdom line represents the wisdom of a person's mind, and parents will pay special attention to the wisdom line of their children, hoping that they will be able to make a name for themselves in the future. This also reflects the high importance that ancient society attached to family honor and children's achievements.
The marriage line is especially important for women. In ancient societies, the fate of women's marriages often determined their happiness or not. Therefore, women will seek the help of physiognomy experts, hoping to ** the direction of marriage by observing their marriage line. This has also led to the lack of initiative of some women in marital issues and their over-reliance on physiognomy.
However, physiognomy and palmistry, although extremely popular in ancient times, did not really change a person's fate.
3. The inability to choose one's origin and the change of modern concepts
Although the ancients were superstitious about physiognomy and palmistry, the idea that reincarnation before birth could not change one's destiny was somewhat absurd. Married life after marriage can change, modern women put more emphasis on self-reliance and self-reliance, and ancient concepts no longer apply. In modern times, getting rich through labor is the mainstream concept, and marriage is no longer the only chance to change your life.
In ancient societies, it was believed that a person's fate was decided at birth. Therefore, physiognomy and palmistry, while able to provide some guidance, cannot really change a person's fate. This concept made people in ancient societies very concerned about the issue of reincarnation at birth, and even performed various rituals to pray for a good reincarnation.
However, in modern society, people pay more attention to their own efforts and abilities. Labor to get rich, self-reliance and self-improvement have become the mainstream concepts, and marriage is no longer the only way to change fate. Women no longer rely on marriage to change their lives, but pursue their own worth and happiness through education, career development, and other means.
Modern society has also paid more attention to equality and freedom, and is no longer bound by ancient ideas. Women are no longer considered to be appendages of men, but have their own power in life choices and decision-making. This shift in mindset has allowed women to pursue their dreams and goals without being constrained by traditional beliefs.
Conclusion:
In ancient times, the words of the ancestors were regarded as unshakable truths, and the culture of colloquialisms prevailed and was passed down from generation to generation. However, with the development of society and the transformation of concepts, ancient ideas and aesthetics are no longer applicable to modern society. Although physiognomy and palmistry once played an important role in ancient times, modern society places more emphasis on individual effort and independent choice, and no longer relies on superstition and traditional ideas to change fate.
We should cherish the experience of history, but we should also understand that times are constantly changing, and we need to adapt to new ideas and values. Although the words of the ancestors have their value, they cannot be absolute, and should be adjusted and improved according to modern needs and ideas. Only in this way can we better move towards the future and create our own destiny.
