For example, when economic circumstances are less than prosperous, some companies turn to such supernatural methods as divining by the eight diagrams of The Book of Changes, fortune-telling according to the number of brushstrokes in the characters of one's name, and geomancy in attempting to deal with these failing conditions.
碰到經濟不景氣的時候，一些超自然的方法，譬如易經卜卦、姓名筆劃、陽宅風水等就會被一些公司行號用來挽救面臨破敗的經濟。
