Of course there is a big difference. Generally, charlatans are basically trying to make a living, help others read their faces and palms, and say something they don't have, just to make money. They are just talking, and can't take it seriously. But you can't believe all fortune-tellers, but some things make sense, for example, you can still see something from your face.

In ancient times, some people would spend a lot of time studying divination and so on. After a long time, they can certainly learn something from it, and there must be something credible, but it would be foolish to believe it all. After all, how can one's fate be predicted in advance? There is such a divination master in Bashu history, and his divination theory is quite different from that of some charlatans. The divination master's name was Zhuang Junping, and later he was renamed Yan Junping.

Yan Junping is very learned. He specializes in some profound knowledge and has high wisdom and morality. At that time, it can be said that some officials in the DPRK admired him deeply. One of the characteristics of his divination is that there are a fixed number of people every day, never more than once. If there are many people, arrange it for the next day. Of course, some people are willing to wait. He divines a fixed number of people every day because he wants to leave his spare time to go home and study behind closed doors. He also has a very important divination principle, that is, he does not scare people, does not talk nonsense for money, and always advises people to be good and take the right path.

Yan Junping persuaded others with the highest knowledge and morality, spoke well, and publicized Lao Tzu's moral classics for the benefit of everyone. The difference between him and ordinary charlatans is that although he lives by fortune telling, he always preaches the principles of benevolence, loyalty, filial piety and shame.
