The ancient wisdom of “observing a horse’s four hooves and a person’s four features” is not just a lesson in perception but also a subtle art of recognizing character.
“Observing a Horse’s Four Hooves
When it comes to evaluating horses, many people consider their physical appearance and endurance. However, true horse connoisseurs look beyond the surface and pay attention to the ‘four hooves.’ These four aspects encompass the hoof’s four critical areas: De Yuen, De Quan, De Bich, and De De Gia (or hoof rim, hoof crest, hoof wall, and hoof sole).
This ancient adage also implies a lesson in not judging others solely by their appearance. In our endeavors, we must focus on tangible results rather than mere words or outward appearances. Relying solely on outward appearances is a sure path to failure.
“Observing a Person’s Four Features
While it may be relatively easy to identify a superior horse, determining a person’s moral character and knowledge is far more challenging. With thousands of people in the world, each with complex thoughts and unique personalities, it is not easy to discern those with negative qualities. People are adept at masking their true natures, making it challenging to discern their true characters.
According to ancient wisdom, observing and understanding a person’s character involves considering four aspects:
+ Physiognomy:
When discussing a person’s physiognomy, the focus is on their five senses or Ngũ Quan. Whether a person is deceitful or noble, their facial features will provide clues about their character. Therefore, by observing one’s physiognomy, we can gain insights into their personality.
+ Skin:
In daily life, a person’s skin can offer clues about their well-being. Someone with a rosy complexion and a cheerful demeanor likely enjoys a comfortable life and a happy marriage. Conversely, those with rough, dull, or sallow skin with wrinkles may be experiencing a less fortunate life.
+ Bone Structure:
In the eyes of the ancients, bone structure could foretell one’s destiny. A sunken and withered bone structure suggests a life of loneliness, poverty, and ups and downs. Conversely, prominent and rounded bones indicate superior abilities.
A person with a rosy complexion and a positive mental state likely enjoys good health. Conversely, those who appear sorrowful daily will likely have a less vibrant aura. This is especially true for those with sallow skin, which may indicate a lack of basic needs or a life filled with disappointments.

Why You Should Avoid Those With Sunken Cheeks, According to the Elders
“A wise old adage warns against associating with those devoid of flesh on their cheeks, for these individuals may embody a life of hardship, reflected in their austere countenances. Such austerity, according to the ancient art of physiognomy, can indicate a person’s potential for trouble in relationships, marked by a lack of sincerity and an inclination to prioritize self-interest above all else.”
