EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Divining from Characters: A Chinese Fortune Teller in Action, Employing the Ancient TCHE TSE Method, 1912". This photograph captures a moment in time as a Chinese fortune teller, with a serene expression and piercing gaze, engages in the ancient art of divination using the TCHE TSE method. Dating back to ancient China, this paranormal practice involves interpreting the meaning of specific characters and their arrangement in a person's name or a question, to reveal insights into their future or answer queries. The fortune teller, dressed in traditional Chinese attire, holds a fan adorned with intricate calligraphy, which serves as a backdrop for the divination process. In her hands, she holds a pair of sticks, known as yarrow stalks, which have been arranged in a specific pattern. The arrangement of the sticks corresponds to a set of hexagrams in the I Ching, an ancient Chinese text that provides guidance on various aspects of life. The fortune teller carefully studies the configuration of the sticks, her brow furrowed in concentration. She then consults the I Ching, using her extensive knowledge of the text and the meaning of the characters to interpret the signs and provide guidance to her client. Divination through the TCHE TSE method has been a significant part of Chinese culture for centuries, and this photograph offers a rare glimpse into this fascinating practice. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and the enduring allure of the mystical and the unknown. This photograph, taken in 1912, offers a window into the past, transporting us to a time when such practices held great significance in people's lives. It is a testament to the human desire to seek answers and understanding beyond the realm of the known, and the power of tradition and belief in shaping our understanding of the world around us.
