The Complete Guide to the Cheeks in Chinese Face Reading
In Chinese face reading, the cheeks indicate the function of your immune system and the level of your self-confidence. Generally, well-structured cheeks are signs of high energy, decisiveness, and assertiveness.
The cheeks are associated with the metal element. The Chinese interpret rosy cheeks as a promise of happiness. The higher the cheeks, the more auspicious your career will be.
If you have a strong cheek as well as a well-developed cheekbone, you are bold, strong, and powerful in personality.
In this post, I will talk about the meanings of your cheeks based on the art of Chinese face reading:
1. Round High Cheeks
In Chinese face reading, full, fleshy, and rounded cheeks indicate you are confident, sensual, and lively. You want to enjoy life to its utmost possibility.
Anyone who wants to cheat a person with high-rounded cheeks better think twice before they commit the action. This is because round, high cheeks are a sign of courage, willpower, and toughness.
People with these cheeks are strong in character. Sometimes, their dynamic energy can make other people feel anxious. These people will never settle for mediocrity.
2. Bony High Cheeks
People with bony high cheeks are said to be “clever in a quiet way”. They seem to be destined to be lonely by fate as they may have only a few friends.
Bony high cheeks mean the owner seldom has financial problems. However, at a certain point in their lives, they may still have to face some serious difficulties. This may mark a long period of unhappiness for people with bony high cheeks.
These people should prepare themselves for a sudden loss and misfortune.
3. Hollow (Indented) Cheeks
Hollow or indented cheeks are a sign of bodily and emotional stress, particularly related to work. This is why when you see someone overworks, their cheeks may suddenly become indented, which look like they don’t have enough food.
People with hollow or indented cheeks may also have problems with drugs, alcohol, and marijuana. They often feel a lack of meaning in life.
If you were born with hollow cheeks, it may also mean your mother experienced stress when she was pregnant. Alternatively, you may carry this trait from your ancestral lineage.
4. Flat Cheeks
Chinese face reading regards people with flat cheeks as someone who avoids conflict. This is an unfortunate sign as this trait can signify a lack of discipline. At worst, flat cheeks are associated with cowardice and capriciousness.
These people often don’t pursue things until the end because of their fickle nature. They may also not manage money well. They really need to work hard to get what they want.
5. Middle and Lower Cheeks
Lower cheeks are the area next to the mouth and below the cheekbones while middle cheeks are right above the lower cheeks.
Face readers call the lower cheeks “moneybags” area because it can indicate whether or not you are going to get rich.
If you see the plumpness in the lower cheek area, you can become prosperous and keep the money you have. You will also have enough willpower when things get physically, emotionally, and spiritually hard.
On the other hand, the middle cheek is regarded as the “breath of life” because it shows if the person has a desire for life. Middle cheeks are full when we are happy while they are hollow and dark when we are “close to the end”.
In fact, many people who have committed suicide before have hollowed and dark middle cheeks. If they overcome depression and become happy again, their middle cheeks once again will be full.
6. Dimples
In Chinese face reading, dimples on the cheeks show someone sensual and easy-going. These people are fickle by nature, especially when it comes to romantic relationships.
People with dimples tend to have many lovers to choose from. Yet once they make up their mind, they can have a long-term relationship with a partner.
When you have a dimple together with sparkling peach luck, you can escape most troubles from life just by smiling and laughing.
7. Cheekbones
Cheekbones are the bones behind your cheeks, located under your eye socket in the middle of the face. Generally, cheekbones are related to authority and pride. The more prominent your cheekbones, the more natural authority you possess.
Large cheekbones are related to strong metal energy. The owners tend to be bossy and usually don’t age fast. The cheekbones’ plumpness can also affect one’s fortune.
8. Moles on Cheeks
Generally, a mole on the cheek is a sign of bravery and sincerity. People who have this mole love to learn new things. They don’t have much materialistic tendency. However, this mole may indicate problems related to legal disputes.
Positively, people who have moles on their cheeks are optimistic and have enough inner power to achieve success. They may be self-centered sometimes. There is a high possibility they don’t get along well with others.
If the mole appears on the left cheek, we have an example of someone who is arrogant but introverted. He is also likely to be extravagant with money.
If the mole is on the right cheek, the person can attract good friendships because of her caring nature. She is sensitive and puts a high value on family and relationships.
