Part one introduces the history of feng shui and the principles that have developed over the centuries. Feng shui practitioners draw from this ancient wisdom, passed down for thousands of years, to bring good fortune and health to their clients. It explains our relationship with nature through the nine aspects of feng shui, and how the position and design of buildings or funishings relate to our health and wellbeing. Part two puts theory into practice. Clearly illustrated directions show how to lay out your home or work environment according to location and design. It enables readers to use the instructions to create a harmonious home where energies work together to promote health and wellbeing. Feng shui is used in preparation for many major events in the Chinese calendar, including the Chinese New Year in February.

I went to a lecture on Feng Shui at the library and it was fascinating, so I decided to read this book. It was interesting. Some stuff seems difficult to do because of the way the windows and doors are in my house. And my rooms aren't big enough to rearrange. The bed only fits in one place. But it will make me think the next time that I move and have to position the furniture.

Un classico che mi ha seguito per quasi due decenni...

This book has been following me and crossing my paths for almost twenty years now. And it's time again to get some feng shui in my life.

I am now a bit more educated in Chinese culture and philosophical thought. Mission accomplished.

This book was a little different from some of the other books I have read on the subject, and it made a lot of sense. One of the better volumes on the topic.

An introduction and explanation of the principles behind feng shui. Gives some practical examples for the home and office. Nicely illustrated. Not comprehensive, but you'd probably need to speak with a master directly for that!
