The saying that a twitch in the left eye means fortune will come from a twitch in the right eye is a common saying, which generally refers to using the nerve movement of the left and right eyes to predict bad luck.
However, the phenomenon of twitching in the left eye and twitching in the right eye is similar to blepharospasm in Western medicine, and is more common in adults. Whorl twitching refers to the uncontrollable twitching of the upper cells or lower eyelids, commonly known as eyelid twitching or eyebrow twitching, which is clinically more common in adults. If it happens occasionally, it does not require treatment and can heal on its own. If it beats too frequently or does not stop for a long time, it requires treatment. This disease is similar to blepharospasm in Western medicine.
In ancient times, people have discovered the phenomenon of "left eye twitching and right eye twitching". The Chinese have always believed that two things that coexist with each other must be one yin and one yang, one good and one bad, so they naturally give these two phenomena the meaning of "causing wealth and disaster".
Method and Symbol
The reason why the ancients said that the left eye will make money and the right eye will bring misfortune, it is because the ancients believed that the left is noble and the right is humble, and they were influenced by the noble left and the humble right. The ancients believed that a twitching eyelid on the left side means wealth and wealth, while a twitching eyelid on the right side indicates a bad situation, that is, a disaster.
In addition, the ancients believed in Feng Shui. According to Feng Shui, the left eye represents the sun and the right eye represents the moon. The sun is Yang and the moon is Yin. Yang is the symbol of the sun and represents light. A good omen for making money, the moon is a symbol of night, represents darkness, and is an early warning of disaster. It is not difficult to see that there is no scientific basis for the ancient saying that a twitch in the left eye brings wealth and a twitch in the right eye brings disaster. In fact, twitching eyelids have nothing to do with financial disaster, but are related to health.
