dimple

In the traditional wine-making process, the mixed grains are put into a vat, and then the middle is hollowed out to expose the bottom of the vat. Grains are then piled up along the wall of the vat to form a pit, which is called a dimple. This should be the original meaning of the word "dimple".

What does a person with dimples mean?

According to Chinese physiognomy, having dimples is actually not a good thing. People with dimples are more likely to quarrel and suffer from verbal disputes. Dimples outside the law represent quarrels with people on the street; dimples inside the law represent quarrels with family members.

There is a saying that dimples should be shallow rather than deep. Shallow dimples bring blessings and longevity, while deep dimples bring bad luck and longevity. This is the principle of "too much brings a drawback". Double dimples are bad, but single dimple is a blessing. Why? In everything, single is better than double. Double is too perfect. Things that are too perfect have only one way to go, and that is downhill. So there is a kind of harmony here.

People with dimples do not have a good life, and it can be said that they start to have bad luck after they reach old age, at the age of 49.

People with dimples generally have very bad luck in their later years.

Another thing is that people with dimples are more likely to argue with others.

Many problems arise in interpersonal relationships. And these problems are not temporary, but are entangled for a long time. If the dimple is outside the nasolabial line, it means you are more likely to quarrel with outsiders. If the dimple is inside the nasolabial line, it means you are more likely to quarrel with family members. Therefore, people with dimples are advised to do more good deeds, or recite scriptures and practice cultivation, so that they can spend their later years smoothly.
