Every time I tell people that I’m a qualified Physiognomist, their first response is “Sorry, a what?”
Let me enlighten you.
Physiognomy is the professional name for face reading. So, in layman’s terms, I am a Face Analysis Specialist. Or even more simply put, I am a Face Reader.
What does that mean, you ask
It is basically where I look at your face from 4 different angles (through photos) and I establish what your true characteristics and personality are.
History of Physiognomy
Let me give you a quick and short history of physiognomy.
- Chinese face reading already appeared 1 000 BC in the Zhou dynasty which was a royal dynasty of China.
- By the 4th century BC, the philosopher Aristotle frequently referred to theory and literature concerning the relationship of appearance to character.
- Even Pythagoras, the ancient Greek mathematician, astronomer, and scientist once rejected a prospective follower/apprentice because, to Pythagoras, his appearance indicated bad character.
- In the Middle Ages and Renaissance (5th to 17th century), Physiognomy was taught in English universities.
- In modern times, the biggest promoter of physiognomy was the Swiss pastor Johann Kaspar Lavater (1741–1801) through which Physiognomy gained great popularity.
- Interestingly, in 2011, the South Korean news agency Yonhap published a Physiognomy analysis of the current leader of North Korea, Kim Jong-Un.
What does the face tell us
How will Physiognomy help you?
We interact with many different personalities on a daily basis, be it family, friends or work colleagues. Face analysis is useful when you want to have a deeper understanding of those people’s personalities and characteristics, how to listen and how to make decisions, to only name a few.
On a personal level, it is to have a better understanding of yourself, how to respond to external issues/scenarios and people, to believe in yourself, to trust your judgements and to feel empowered.
Examples:
In the Workplace
- Do you want to employ the correct person for the job?
- Do you want to know how you should communicate and interact with your colleagues?
Personal Relationships
- Want to understand your partner’s intimacy requirements?
- Want to know how to better communicate with your partner and avoid conflict?
Self Discovery
- Do you want a better perspective of who you are?
- Do you want to discover the positive characteristics of your personality and areas for development?
- Do you want to feel empowered & believe more in yourself?
Intuitive Reading
Using my skills as a Physiognomist and incorporating it with an intuitive reading will give you deep insight into things you are struggling with and how to approach / handle and overcome those issues.
To become aware or conscious of yourself on a deeper level is a great gift you can give yourself and it will assist you to heal and overcome obstacles easier.
Impact it has on people
“Hi Mariet
Your face reading analysis is so much in line with my character and personality. I would say 99% correct. Gives me a good perspective of who I am. When reading it, I can so quickly identify most comments/analysis being 100%. Reading this report, just reconfirmed both the positive and also area for development. The 1% that is a question mark has got me to think that maybe my focus area and path into life is being looked at with a different perspective (positive one , I would think ), learning how to “Live” life than just ”Exist” and accepting the current situation (which is amazing as it is so aligned to the analysis). The aspects of childhood experience is so “spot on”. Only my face could say this story.
Both in my personal life and work life, the outcome of this analysis has become very important to me. Firstly, I believe more in myself. Started to think about what is the difference between finding peace and stress both in my personal and work life… answer is “attitude”. In my opinion all staff should have this analysis done and even new recruits. A “face” tells it all. In our every day we interact with different personalities , be it family/friends or work colleagues. So important to understand each other personality , especially in our work environment (spend more than 8 hours a day together) than wasting our energy identifying our differences. This reading has given me a good insight of “ME” and now more so I believe in myself, trust my judgements and feel empowered.
Thank you once again. Was really worth my while. Will be doing same for my son.”

“Mariet did an individual reading for my husband and I, and when I read through Mariet’s in depth face analysis, I was blown away!
I can honestly say that it was 100% accurate. When I read it the first time, I questioned a few things, but after reflecting and then reading again, I realised actually it is all true.
Being at a place in my life where I am, it was a wonderful and satisfying experience to know that I am pretty much on track in my professional and personal life. I am being true to myself, but it was great to have highlighted the areas in my life (personal or professional) that I have known deep down I need to work on, or just pay a little more attention to.
It was so insightful and really has given me a view on how others perceive me (important to me).
What was great is that because both my husband and I had a reading as a couple, we were also given some points on how to communicate and understand one another better. In terms of relationship counselling – this is really an invaluable tool to get these tips.
I would highly recommend you use Mariet for not only yourself in your own personal development, but for professional growth and insight to.”
