WHAT YOUR TEETH CAN REVEAL ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER

Of all Chinese Metaphysics subjects, the one that is probably the most popular and often appeals to the layperson is Mian Xiang, the Chinese art of Face Reading.

This is because Face Reading affords you a quick assessment of people, including yourself, without the necessity of printing any charts or conducting any detailed analysis. Using only observation, a Mian Xiang practitioner is able to size up a person's innate character and current luck circumstances.

In the study of Mian Xiang the one facial feature which is less discussed are the teeth. This seems logical because of their concealed nature. It is also for this reason that the teeth are not surprisingly also known as the Internal Academic Hall.

The next time you try to size up a part of someone's character, try getting them to talk, smile and laugh with a revealing mouth so that you can check out their set of pearly teeth!

A set of teeth which look clean and even are usually indicative of someone who is sincere, trustworthy and respectful towards others. Being of the metal element, the teeth are indeed a measure of a person's trustworthiness and sense of honor.

Teeth which are crooked and unequal in size are not only unpleasant to look at but are also generally indicative of a person who may be dishonest and therefore cannot be trusted.

Should you notice that someone's teeth are small, unhealthy-looking and sparse, then that particular person is likely to be arrogant and also being disorganized.

On the other hand, someone with sharp and fang-like teeth, which resemble the teeth of a predatory animal, tends to behave exactly like that - aggressive and overly assertive by nature as well as lacking courtesy and refinement.

How do you identify someone who may not be able to ascend the corporate ladder owing to that person's tendency to frequently offend those in authority? People with protruding teeth come under this category. This type can be careless with speech - opening their mouths without processing their thoughts first, so to speak. As a result, they end up offending others unknowingly. While they can be fairly entertaining in general, their behavior typically does not augur well for them to work in an office or corporate environment, where proper conduct and a high degree of civility are required.
