Why are the so-called immortals so accurate?
Psychologists have made an in-depth study of fortune telling. They found that almost all fortune tellers understand people's psychology, and their most common psychological trick is: "When people hear the other person say a few ambiguous words, they often scrutinize their own understanding direction, thus creating the illusion that' the other person knows me'." This is a psychological phenomenon of self-verification.
Fortune tellers are often good at observing people's psychology and know how to use it to achieve their goals. Fortune tellers often ask fortune tellers ambiguous questions, because ambiguous questions often make people speculate and imagine in their own direction.
For example, sometimes fortune tellers will ask, "Is there a big tree in front of your house?" If there is, you will think that he really knows how to pinch and calculate; If not, he will solemnly say, "Oh, nothing is the best." He seems to wish there were no trees.
Sometimes fortune tellers will say, "You have something to do with water." Such words often arouse many associations of people. If you have the word "water" in your name or a radical with three water dots.
You will think: How does he know that my name is associated with water? If you work in the water conservancy department, you will also be surprised: how does he know that my work is related to water? If there is a river or pond near your home, you will also be surprised: how does he know that there is water next to my home? And so on. You don't need a fortune teller to say anything, you have a lot to do with yourself.
Everyone has the psychology of self-verification:
Self-verification is rooted in our self-centered way of thinking. Since the ancient Greek philosopher Socrates "knew ourselves", we have never stopped looking for ourselves, but we are often lost in ourselves and easily hinted by the information around us. When we see other people's experiences or problems in life, we will look for similarities from them and then think that we have had such feelings or problems.
