What is Mouth (Chu Na Guan)?
In physiognomy the mouth is called the Chu Na Guan (出納官) and is read for speech, social expression, and the fortune of sustenance (食祿). Corners that lift neatly and full, firm lips are read as a sign of good speech, sociability, and warmth, with fortune following. A large mouth is read as breadth of measure and ambition, and a neat mouth as trustworthiness. Corners that droop or a slack set are read as a cue to look at the grain of one's words and how one finishes things.
