The first feature is the long auricle. The average person's ears should be flat, with eyebrows above and the bottom of the nose below. The scientific calculation method of auricle length should be from the tip of the ear to the lower earlobe. The average length of an adult's ear is 5~8 cm. However, the 50 long-lived elderly people surveyed lived longer and had longer ears.
The second feature is that the earlobe is large. The earlobe is the lowest point from the tragus to the ear.
The above figures tell us that long auricle and large earlobe are the characteristics of longevity. We can go back and observe those old people who live long, and we will find that their auricles do have these two characteristics. We call auricle length and earlobe "longevity ear sign". However, it must be noted that long auricle and large earlobe are only one of the characteristics of longevity. People who live long generally have long ears, but those with long ears may not live long, and those with short ears may not live short. Because longevity or not, but also combined with the color and shape of the ear and other parts of a variety of vital signs to comprehensive analysis. The length of the ear is just one of the useful clues.
Chinese medicine pays attention to "not being arbitrary". Besides length, the ear itself has other characteristics, such as thickness. Thick is better than thin. Apply both soft and hard, soft is better than hard; There is also the problem of sticking or not sticking, and sticking is better than not sticking; The problem of color, the color of the ear is bright and moist, better than dull and dry. It is necessary to combine the various colors and shapes of the ear itself to make an accurate judgment. And everyone has five senses and seven senses. There are not only long-lived ears on his face, but also more than 20 other life features. We have to compare the ear characteristics with the color patterns of other officials, and the conclusion is more reliable.
