Is He Your True Love? One Way to Know for Sure
Close your eyes and visualize your perfect mate. What features are you most attracted? Dark, dreamy eyes or eyes with a twinkle in them; a strong masculine jaw? Notice every detail in his face.
What Makes Us fall in Love
Studies of what makes us fall in love conclude that we are attracted to symmetry in the features of a face. The perfect ratio of eyes to ears to mouth yields the ideal face in our standard of beauty. But how many people have you found very attractive, but did not fall in love with?
So we know that there must be more to this equation. Check out any online dating site and you will see the in depth questioning it takes to come up with a profile of a compatible partner. You are asked to think about and provide preferences in appearance, background and education, values and beliefs, lifestyle etc. in hopes of finding that someone who is perfect for you.
A Visual Connection
But what if falling in love is not as complicated as we try to make it? What if we instinctively know our true love just by looking at the features of his face? A visual connection that gives an inner view of the thoughts, feelings and values of that certain someone.
According to the art of Face Reading we can. Its principle is based on the ancient Chinese observations of nature and the human life cycle. This circle of life, from beginning to end to beginning again, is the law that governs all life. The Chinese defined the cycles in five stages or the Five Elements known as Water, Fire, Wood, Earth and Metal.
Each element has an energy that is represented in each of us and has characteristics that reveal something about our personalities. It is reflected in our face and our face tells who we are inside.
What Does His Face Tell You
Remember I asked you to visualize your perfect mate. For illustration let us say his eyes have that dark, dreamy, mysterious look and his hair is wavy. Those are Water characteristics. This person's qualities include determination, courage, innate wisdom, creativity, a nurturing depth of feeling and a need to not be confined.
Let's say your ideal mate has sparkling eyes that seem to dance with light and has curly hair. That's the Fire element. He has a quick smile, loves excitement, upbeat personality and great at communicating.
Okay. Your perfect mate with his strong, prominent jaw is a Wood energy. This is the element of logic and structure. He loves a good argument, needs to keep active, into outdoor and competitive team sports.
Look at His Eyes
When I first read this book on face reading, "The Wisdom of Your Face" by Jean Haner, I got an "aha" moment that helped me understand and appreciate my husband even more.
He has the soft dreamy eyes characteristic of the Water element. At first sight they drew me right to him! He is adventurous, goes by his inner map to explore the world, and knows exactly what to say when I'm not feeling confident. There's some Fire in him too. He loves to play and joke. Perfect for me because I love to laugh.
And he has one Water characteristic that has caused me many frustrated, stressful moments over the years. True to his element he is almost always late. And he does not seem to do it purposely. I have observed him leave the house at the same time he was supposed to arrive for an appointment. Hard to figure. Once I understood that time restrictions don't fit well with Water energy's need to flow, my "aha" moment allowed me to be more relaxed and not take it personal.
Did I forget to say that my energy is Metal? I am organized, precise, creative, value beauty and to quote, "running late is not a Metal quality!" Wow. It just goes to show that opposites attract. And, like my husband and I, love happily ever after.
