“Name Study” is a discipline of numerology, yin-yang and five-element theory that originated from the ancient Chinese philosophy of “I Ching” (The Book of Changes). Name Study is a convenient tool for fate analysis because it only requires using one’s “surname” and “given name” to research a person’s destiny, personality, and relationships with others.
Name Study is a simple structure that is easy to learn but difficult to master deeply。 The simpler the structure of a discipline, the more profound its underlying theories often are。 However, many name study books on the market frequently contain errors in numerological meanings, making it hard for practitioners to fully grasp the essence。
A person’s fate can be shaped by their own efforts and achievements or influenced by their ancestor’s merits, social context, and physical appearance。 However, the most powerful influences on destiny are governed by one’s “BaZi” (Four Pillar of Destiny) and name。
Some may wonder why people with the same name and surname often have different fates。 The answer lies in their differing birth dates。 Even individuals born at the exact same time and place will still have unique destinies due to differences in gender, living environments, and the impact of cosmic energies on their personal numerology and names。
It is important to note that using Chinese character strokes for name analysis is not recommended。 While stroke count represents form, character meaning is the soul of a Chinese character. Additionally, the Five Elements Profile method imposes many limitations and often results in names with poor pronunciation or hidden meanings, potentially missing out on better naming options。
Names have form, sound, meaning, and numerical values – all of which can be linked to yin-yang and five elements。 These characteristics are closely connected with the origins of “I Ching” symbols and cannot be created arbitrarily。 Therefore, great care and caution must be exercised when choosing a name。
