What does the saying “a mole on a face with dimples and a mole on the neck spend half your life searching for” mean?

There are many interesting sayings among the people. They are easy to understand, but the philosophy behind them is not as simple as when you first read it. For example, the saying that Yan Xiaoer will discuss below is "A person with dimples on his face and a mole on his neck will live half his life." Looking for tears."

In this proverb, "dimples" indicate a person's lovable appearance, and "mole on the neck" implies a "mole of bitterness". The whole sentence roughly means that there is a kind of person who is lovable but has a rough relationship. Although he has been searching for half his life, his eyes are full of tears. Once he finds true love, he can "grow old together".

Although this proverb uses "dimples" and "nevus on the neck" as "signs" of a person who is miserable but has a good death, it is undoubtedly too "arbitrary" to use this as a "sign" and cannot be used as a "mark". Believe it, and the superficial meaning of this proverb cannot withstand logical scrutiny. But what Yan Xiaoer wants to say is that the common sayings of our Chinese nation never want to express more than the superficial meaning. As descendants of Yan and Huang, we should think carefully about its hidden meaning.

In Yan Xiaoer’s opinion, this sentence is warning us on two levels:

First, sweet-looking people are prone to attract peach blossoms, and among peach blossoms, there are also peach blossoms. It is inevitable that you will encounter some rotten peach blossoms.

Secondly, lasting love is often not so easy to find. Before we find the right person, most of us will search for it with tears in our eyes.

So, good-looking friends should not give up on themselves and give up looking for the right person because of their "bad love". In this world, a "good marriage" is always rare.

At the same time, even if the feelings are bitter, we must remember the long-lasting love. People who take relationships seriously will always meet the right person after growing up stumblingly. At least we must have this kind of optimism about our own love.

It is worth mentioning that the philosophy in this proverb is not only worthy of our appreciation, but the interesting legend behind this proverb is also worth discussing. Let’s first analyze the proverb in detail, and then talk about the legend behind the proverb. 1. The "dimple" in "A mole on a face with dimples and a neck" and the metaphor behind it

The first half of the saying "A mole on a face with dimples and a neck will spend half your life looking for tears" belongs to the A description of a person's physical characteristics.

The so-called "dimples" are actually a "metaphor", which is a metaphor for the two small "dimples" at the corners of a person's mouth when they smile. These small "dimples" are similar to the convenience of the ancients when they were making wine. Scoop the wine into the small round pit intentionally left in the fermentation vessel.

The aroma of wine makes people intoxicated, while the dimples on a person’s face make people feel haggard.

In other words, people with dimples on their faces often look cute and lovable.

In Yan Xiaoer's view, the so-called "dimples" refer more to people with cute looks and lovable personalities. 2. "Nevus with long neck" and "Mole of Misery" in "Guolao Xing Zong"

Regarding "Nevus with long neck", relevant records can be found in "Guo Lao Xing Zong" of the Tang Dynasty .

"Guolao Xingzong" was written by Zhang Guo in the Tang Dynasty. It is a unique book that records the theory of star destiny in my country.

Although some of the remarks in it seem almost fanciful at first glance, if we chew carefully and put aside the unknowable "mystery" in it, we can discover its profound "humanistic heritage." In addition, this book records the theories of many famous people, and also records the ancient people's research on celestial phenomena. It can very well help us study ancient astrology and is very precious.

Don’t underestimate the ancients’ research on celestial phenomena. After all, by observing celestial phenomena, the ancients invented astronomical tools such as the heaven and earth instrument, and one of the expressions of “nevus on the neck”, “nole of bitterness”, was recorded In "Guolao Xingzong".

According to the collected information, the so-called "nevus of bitterness" generally refers to moles that grow in the middle of the back of the neck and within 3 centimeters, because the location of the mole is in the Kun position. According to "Guolao Xingzong" The saying means that people with such a mole are often not very happy in love at first, but after some troubles, once they find true love, they can grow old together.

Of course, love cannot be controlled by a mole. Yan Xiaoer does not believe that having the so-called "mole of bitterness" is just like what is said in the book. Love does not go well, but you can get it in the end. "True love".

Yan Xiaoer believes that "everything depends on human effort".

However, from the interpretation of "Mole of Misery", what Yan Xiaoer sees is not the "relationship between appearance and destiny". What Yan Xiaoer sees is actually the ancient people's view of "people of misery" comfort.

People who are in pain are sad and troubled, sincerely pay wrongly, and even lose hope of life. If a person is trapped by a rotten peach blossom, and suddenly hears the saying "A face with dimples and a mole on the neck will spend half your life looking for tears", will he suddenly regain hope of pursuing his love? The answer is self-evident. 3. Behind the saying, "A man with a dimple on his face and a mole on his neck, who has been searching for tears for half his life" is the advice of the ancestors

In fact, behind the saying, it is more that the ancestors have a mysterious or mysterious way of thinking after experiencing too much. Or in a humorous way, convey to people some "positive and optimistic" attitude towards life.

In the proverb "A man with a dimple on his face and a mole on his neck spends his whole life searching for tears", what our ancestors want to tell us is not only to let the world cherish the sincerity of "people with bitter feelings", but also to warn us. People who are in love should not give up searching for true love. 4. Written at the end: The "legend" about the mole of bitterness

The above mentioned the connotation of the common saying. Let's take a look at the legends related to the mole of bitterness.

In Chinese folklore, after a person dies, he will drink Meng Po soup on Naihe Bridge. After drinking Meng Po soup, people will forget everything they experienced before death, and then be reincarnated again.

But not everyone is willing to drink Meng Po soup, because there are people they don’t want to forget no matter what.

In order to let these people drink Meng Po soup, Meng Po promised them to make a mark, and this mark was the mole on the back of her neck.

In this case, even if this person is reincarnated and loses the memory of his previous life, because of the existence of this mole, he will look for his lover from the previous life and renew their relationship.

The legend is very poignant, but it also reflects the praise of "true love" by ancient Chinese people:

In the story, as far as Po Meng is concerned, people's "true love" can move " "Ghosts and gods". Apart from the story, the so-called "mole of bitterness" is actually just a warning to everyone. People who don't have a mole of bitterness should cherish the person in front of them who really treats you. People who have a mole of bitterness should also manage their love well. Don't be defeated by the difficulties in front of you.

Does it actually matter if you have a nevus of distress? The important thing is whether you have a sincere heart. What do you think?
