12 Houses Method of Face Reading

Twelve Houses, also 12 sections or 12 palaces, refer to the 12 basic parts in face reading. In ancient Chinese physiognomy books, the face is often divided into 12 sections. The location, shape, arrangement, color and gloss of the 12 palaces suggest one's fortune and fate.

1. Life House

2. Wealth House
Wealth House is located at the apex and wings of nose and it represents wealth and career. The mellow, full and bright apex with big wings yet not seriously exposed nares is good while the apex with mole is bad. The dark and bloodshot apex with pimple indicates the unexpected personal financial losses recently.
 
3. Sibling House

4. Marriage House
Located at the corner of eye, Marriage House suggests the love relationship and marriage. The full and glossy is favorable while the sinking with wrinkles and moles is unfavorable. For a man, the dark left Marriage Palace suggests his own problems while the dark right indicates his wife is prone to illegal love affairs; for a woman, it is on the contrary.
 
5. Children House
Located below the eyes, Children House indicates the information of your children. The sinking indicates no child while the plump is favorable yet the overly plump is also unfavorable. The Children Palace with mole and wrinkles suggests that you will worry about your children and be encumbered by them. For a man, the left suggests sons while the right indicates daughters.

9. Career House
Located right in the middle of the forehead, Career House represents career and official position.

If the upper eyelid is too close to the eyebrow, it suggests the unsuccessful property in youth and seldom help from ancestors; if the eye socket is sunken, it indicates the difficulty in getting ancestral property.
