You were born with a unique inner blueprint, an original design that was yours and yours alone. You were meant to live your life in alignment with that design, so that you could find the work that brings you joy, relationships that fill your heart, and become the full expression of your authentic self. But for many of us, our true nature was not always recognized, honored or supported by parents, family, teachers or society at large. Instead, soon after birth, we were inundated with expectations about how we were supposed to feel and behave, based on others’ judgments, hopes and needs. And over time, we lost touch with our inner design and to some degree, veered away from the genuinely happy lives we all deserve. You can rediscover your original design – your face is a reflection of that inner blueprint. Chinese face reading is a branch of Chinese medicine, which over thousands of years, evolved a way to discern the secret patterns that are there for you to understand and use. Learn to read your own personal map, so you can journey through life with an open heart, arm in arm with people who love and support you, and doing work that fulfills you.
We’re all so sad and distressed to lose Michael Jackson, and to look back at his life and how things unfolded so painfully for him despite his brilliance and success. I’ve seriously hesitated about writing anything here because there has been such a swarm of people seeking to get their own publicity from this tragic event. The focus of my work is certainly not about reading celebrities' faces! But I hope you’ll forgive me if I make a few comments, for the sole intention of helping you understand face reading.
He was said to have had dozens of plastic surgeries on his face and these really changed his entire ‘destiny’ - especially transforming the decade of his 40’s from one that would have been powerful, grounded and filled with successful relationships to one of devastation. One of the things the nose represents is what your life experience will be in your 40’s, and this is the period that turned out to be such a nightmare for him. I was especially worried about him at this specific time in his life because age 49-50 is represented on the face as the area from the tip of the nose down into the philtrum (the groove above the upper lip). Because the tip of his nose was so disfigured, this would indicate a time of dangerous transition. In addition, the tip of the nose is said to reflect the health of the heart. The features and markings on someone’s face are just a mirror of who they are inside, both physically and emotionally. So, while as I’m writing this, the final cause of death has not yet been determined, it wouldn’t be a surprise to learn it was as a result of some damage to the heart, no matter whether caused by drugs, anorexia or other reasons. Michael’s sunken cheeks and vitiligo (a skin disease resulting in loss of pigmentation) signify a person who is overly-sensitive and likely to deprive themselves of food and/or support, and to withdraw from the world to live in isolation. Interestingly, the cleft he added to his chin is called ‘the mark of the performer’ in Chinese face reading, but can also indicate someone who is reactive emotionally and more likely to suffer feelings of betrayal by those close to him. It hurts my heart to look at photos of his original, natural face and then what he became. In a nutshell, here is what Chinese face reading would say about someone who looked as he did before and after the surgeries: Original face: Loving connections with family and friends, stamina and strength, relaxed enjoyment of the pleasures of life, increasing success through life, emphasis on supportive relationships, and a sense of grounded safety in the world. Changed face: Loss of personal power, extreme vulnerability of the heart emotionally and physically, overly-sensitive, reactive. Aloof, highly stressed, deep issues of lack and deprivation, and need for solitude due to extreme sensitivity. Loss of ‘home’ and ability to feel safe in the world overall. One last comment that I’d like to offer is the hope that this experience will help our culture move to a place of less judgment and more compassion toward others. The choices Michael Jackson made in his life may well have been due to early childhood trauma and abuse. Though I guess it’s a natural human impulse, it seems shameful that people have been so eager to gossip and judge, rather than feel empathy and kindness toward a brilliant soul in pain. The word “genius” is usually thought to mean someone who’s got a sky-high IQ. But there is another meaning of “genius” from ancient times. Genius is also defined as the distinctive spirit of a person: “the superior or divine nature which is innate in a person...that disposition or aptitude of mind which is peculiar to each man, and which qualifies him for certain kinds of action or special success in any pursuit...” You have a unique genius – have you found it? Or are you even living a life in judgment of your genius – thinking that inner calling, that yearning that you’ve felt all your life is actually what’s wrong with you? One woman had a big ‘aha’ moment in my workshop when she realized how her father’s negative reaction to her bubbly outgoing personality as a child had become her own self-judgment as an adult. Every time she was her natural exuberant self with someone, she’d hear her father’s harsh words in her head: “Keep it DOWN!” And she’d immediately pull her energy back, feeling she’d been loud and obnoxious, the way her father had seen her. This negative ‘talk-radio station’ had been playing in her head for 30 years. Not only had it limited her ability to have the kind of friendships she needed, but it had prevented her from expressing who she really was in the world. Rather than choosing the career that appealed to her, she’d kept herself small and quiet as an admin assistant in the corporate world. But she’s now letting her joyful high-energy self free as a stand-up comedienne, and says she’s living in accordance with her soul’s intent! Your genius is reflected in the features of your face. Once you discover how to read these messages of your own distinctive spirit, you can achieve new self-love and acceptance, and the joy of bringing that brilliant essence to light in the world.

I’ve often used Michael Jackson as an example in my courses of how such drastic changes to someone’s face can indicate – and worsen - severe personal problems. But it was chilling to hear about the timing and probable cause of his death because it’s so in alignment with what Chinese face reading would say about him.
I hope you'll join me to experience a workshop, to learn how to transform your own life and the lives of others. For a very special experience, come to the August workshop – Louise Hay will be there!
